Can you really go wrong with Jack Nicholson? Well, they did it in `Anger Management' but that is another story
I have always loved Jack Nicholson as an actor and in `About Schmidt' he proves to me that he deserves my attention. Because he is an amazing actor and he steals absolutely every scene that he is in. This movie is in the drama genre, but it is also a feel good movie. Jack plays a guy that retires from his job. After his wife suddenly dies, he really doesn't know what he will do. It seems like his life doesn't have meaning anymore. Therefore, he starts up his motor home and starts driving around. I think he basically needs something to do, because then he doesn't have to sit around thinking about his late wife or his work. This is a beautiful movie and a sweet story about an average guy. If you like Jack, you will love this movie. I know I did. I rate this movie 8/10
