Russell Crowe delivers in this movie. Based upon a true story. Very odd behavior by this man, yet he learns to overcome.

RUSSELL CROWE AT HIS BEST. THE MOVIE WAS VERY WELL DONE AND I ENJOYED THE STORY.

Movie was not what i expected but a great add none the less.

This movie has always been one of my favorites. All of the actors deliver wonderful performances that truly seem to capture accurate portrails of the feelings one would have in dealing with mental illness. The movie is quite serious which makes the lighthearted and happy moments all the more treasured. The music is also phenomenal! It’s one of the few movie soundtracks that gets stuck in my head and completely captures the emotions of the movie. A++

A Beautiful Mind based on a true story about John Nash, a Nobel Laureate in Economics. The film was directed by Ron Howard, from a screenplay written by Akiva Goldsman. It was inspired by a bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-nominated 1998 book of the same name by Sylvia Nasar. The film stars Russell Crowe, along with Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly, Paul Bettany, Adam Goldberg, Judd Hirsch, Josh Lucas, Anthony Rapp, and Christopher Plummer in supporting roles. The story begins in Nash's days as a graduate student at Princeton University. Early in the film, Nash begins to develop paranoid schizophrenia and endures delusional episodes while painfully watching the loss and burden his condition brings on wife Alicia and friends.

This is 4th copy I have purchased for family members. Leading character is quite magnetic and I feel did a marvelous job presenting a difficult illness, especially for someone intelligent and refined to have to deal with. Gives insight to others as the way outsiders see their illness and shows understanding of the demons the disabled are trying to master and remain a part of the living,

Even though John Nash, the subject of this biographical film, was a genius on a level few can easily comprehend, the movie is able to relate him in the most basic way, through his humanity. Though this film addresses significantly complicated intellectual concepts, it is watchable due to its focus on love and living through the shattering of a reality in the most jarring of ways.

I only have praise for this movie. Truly depicts what have the disease is like. The film allows novice mental health workers to experience the issue. One must remember when the film was made and the mental health tools which were available then. Also, note the “compassion” of the family, friends, and co-workers.

This movie is an instant classic that still stands the test of time. I can't recommend this movie enough. It's a movie that demands one's attention. Not for the sake of its academic standpoint but the analysis of the protagonist and characters he interacts with through his trials and tribulations.

I loved this movie! I didn't know anything about his story or how it would end so boy, was I surprised. I won't give it away in case someone who hasn't seen it wants to be surprised, too.

I think that this was the best biographical/drama film ever made and it was one of my many favorite films of all time. I really enjoyed the drama and suspense that made this an exciting and entertaining film including the film's cast, plot and storyline as well.

Now somewhat older [2001[ but still a sterling depiction of the tumultuous life of the the renowned economist John Nash. Russell Crowe is brilliant and ably abetted by veterans Jennifer Connolly and Ed Harris with an excellent role by the emerging Paul Bettany.

This is an excellent movie about a man who thinks hes in the spy game when the doctors try to convince him and his loving wife that he's a little crazy with his dreams. Russel Crow does an excellent job acting this out.
