"A Beautiful Mind" is brilliant. Brian Grazer and Ron Howard did an amazing job once again, the movie deserving the 4 Oscars and 4 Golden Globes, no doubt about that. It was clearly the best movie of 2001, actually one of the best movies I've ever seen. The movie tells the story of the well-known mathematician John Nash, picturing his life from the moment he arrived at Princeton, until the winning of the Nobel Prize in the late 90's (for his extraordinary work in game theory, his work being a true foundation of economics). "A Beautiful Mind" is pretty accurate with the historical truth, presenting most of the struggles in Nash's life, although not all of them. The plot was amazing, in my opinion another thing that impressed the people at the Academy. The viewer is made to see almost all the film through the eyes of John Nash, ignoring all the subtle hints at the mental-illness he is suffering of, everything making a lot of sense at the end of the movie. Also, the acting was amazing, and it really mattered. Russell Crowe's portrayal of John Nash was just stunning, culminating with the moments picturing Nash old and with his amazing body-language, the kind of things that even the best actors struggle with. This performance was clearly
Crowe's best. Of course, Jennifer Connelly's acting shouldn't be overlooked. She knew how to handle all the moments of the movie flawlessly. In my opinion, despite everything else, the most important part of the film is John Nash's inner-fight with his problems. From the heights of academical glory and recognition, to the depths of his mental-illness, John Nash is experiencing everything. Above all, the film gets into the deepest of Nash's
mind of soul. The movie expresses so well Nash's genius that there are no words to explain. Truly beautiful and honest.No more words to say, judging with a very critical view, the film would get a rating of 9/10, because of the few historical truths hidden. Although, in my point view, the omitted truths can be easily ignored so it is maybe the most honest 10/10 rating I ever gave. The film is more than a 2-hour video, it
is the story of a genius, a story of both love and bravery. Bogdan Teodorescu, 4th of March 2018R.I.P. John Forbes Nash and Alicia Nash, 2015, amazing peoplePARENTAL ADVISORY! The movie is very explicit, showing schizofrenia at it's worst. This can be very disturbing for children and for adults too.

A brilliant mathematician but anti-social person by the name of John Nash begins having some new acquaintances with whom he seems to achieve the most important work of his life. He marries his beautiful and caring wife and starts secretly working for a mysterious person in an attempt to break a powerful encryption. All seems to go flawlessly but suddenly, a highly unexpected disease is discovered in his body, one that seems to have affected almost everything he has ever done. From there on, a very painful struggle begins, one on which his entire life depends on.It's a very sad movie which seems to tell in its beginning the story of an extraordinary man but suddenly decides to present a very unexpected turn which leaves you completely dazzled. As much as it is mind blowing, as much it increases the drama of the entire movie, keeping you eager to find out the finale of this brilliant plot. The actors do a very good job reenacting their characters, managing to create a highly dramatic atmosphere which transmits emotion with every single scene it describes. I cannot explain how much this movie marked me with its incredible story and characters which ultimately ends with great style. It truly is a masterpiece, making it a must see for every single movie lover.
