I usually avoid biopics like this, but A Beautiful Mind was well worth watching. John Nash had quite a life, and even if some of this movie isn't entirely accurate, it's certainly one that will make an impression on most people. Both Russell Crowe and the beautiful Jennifer Conne... ...( read more )

An inspiring movie -- to be able to recover from paranoid schizophrenia. The fact that the movie was based on fact is amazing as well.

September 27, 2007Having the powers of extra-ordinary intuition and brilliance is a rare gift which very few people are blessed with, but some drift into the realm of insanity. That's sad.
You need to have a passion, an obsession for things to go on, but they can be guided, nurtured only if one is loved and cared. I am deeply touched by the story.

September 15, 2007I'm not schizophrenic but my uncle is so I have seen the effedts and can only imagine the hardships and the effects. This film is absolutely brilliant and so is Russell Crowe!

September 8, 2007I'm not schizophrenic, but I do have some mental health problems, and I know how scary it can be at times. I've wanted to kill myself because of some of it, but I know that there are people a LOT worse off than me, so I stayed alive. I was told I could never become a Drama teacher because of my troubles.My 'friends' and a careers adviser told me this, and I listened to them for a long time. Now I am at university studying theatre education, and I am doing alright.
What I'm trying to say is, no matter what your troubles are, you should never let them ruin your life. I think Russell Crowe portrayed this idea fantastically in 'A Beautiful Mind' and I truly believe that mental illness and genius are extremely close.
I also think Paul Bettany made a brilliant Charles, and I felt sorry for him when Nash had to start ignoring him...And Ed Harris was just as good, but in a more darker way.
MY NUMBER 1 MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!! -
July 12, 2007This movie rocked me, it explained so much about mental ilness at the same time as just being 1 of the best movies of all time.. wish 1 of my ex wives would have been that devoted.. not that i'm mentally ill or nuthin' ;)
