Well-made, and with an involving turn from Crowe, but ultimately rushed and simplistic a look at the genesis of economic game theory and the complex mind of one of its pioneers, John Nash. Polished, but too polished.

I wonder when was the first time directors find it super cool to write shit on windows.

Fantastic first half of textbook biopic storytelling until a fatal twist that causes the film to over-indulge in nonsensical "love wins in the end" shit. The fact the latter half isn't even true jeopardized the first half, but really the whole film is jeopardized by the fact everything that happens in the end is predictable, nostalgic mediocrity.

Unbearable mediocrity. Howard sucks, the Skinheaded Gladiator-Like geek of Crowe sucks and the original life of Nash was totally different from this "love-conquers-all" dispicable horse-shit. But this is just a humble opinion.

Typical phony and clichéd Ron Howard film with no vision or originality.

inner confusion and loss never depicted better in a film. Someone beating a huge barrier and still dealing with it to this very day. There's hope for all us slightly mad people out there.

Great performances, but falls short of really delving into the real-life challenges of such a disorder. It also made me wish I could trip out every time I do my homework.

One of the mediocre best picture winners of the 2000s. Pretty much forgettable. Russell Crowe is now one of the actors I avoid.

An okayish flick. The 2002 oscars messed up high time in my opinion. Russel Crowe should definitley have got the best actor award. But best picture and director should have gone to Lord of the rings hands down instead of this film.

One of Ron Howard's more tolerable films. The makeup at the end of the film was so terrible, and I think it may have been Oscar nominated as well.

The actors give respectable performances but I found this film's perspective on Nash's condition to be over-simplified and dare I say, over-romanticized. And I'm sure the real-life challenges of living with him -- undiagnosed, untreated -- weren't as simple as depicted.

As a movie itself, it isn't bad. On the contrary, it's actually one of the better pieces in Ron Howard's long and horrible filmography. My only problem with it was that as a biopic, it fails to truly capture John Nash in his entirety. That much just proves Ron Howard's fear of making a movie that really challenges its viewer to think.
