As OCD as it gets

I don't know about you but I sure love sarcastic-clever-bad-tempered characters. If you're like me then you're going to have a ball watching "As good as it gets".
Although both Greg Kinear and Helen Hunt are in this movie, it's relly Jack Nicholson the big star. And it's not that the other two didn't have great performances, they did, but Jack is simply outstanding.
The story is about this novel writer, Mr. Udall(played by Jack Nicholson), who is just brilliant, nevertheless has a severe case of OCD(obsessive-compulsise disorder), is homophobic and racist. Just to make things worse, he lives right next to a homossexual (Greg Kinear) whose boyfriend is black (Cuba Gooding Jr.). But the real story begins when Mr. Udall has to drive his gay neighbour to Baltimore, and asks the only waitress he allows to serve him (Helen Hunt) to join them.
During the trip Mr. Udall realizes what an annoying person he is by being forced to listen to Carol-the-waitress-and-Simon-the-gay-guy's critics about him during the journey. Although this group of unusual friends is good for some gags, the best feature of the movie definetely is Mr. Udall's remarks about everything and everyone, full sarcasm and prejudice, but Udall can and will surprise you.
Another great aspect of the movie is the drama of people, such as Udall, whose OCD is severe. Nicholson's acting is supreme and when you're not laughing you're feeling pity for him.
"As good as it gets" is a great movie and shouldn't be missed.
