Firstly, both Jack Nicholson and Kathy Bates portrait their characters superbly in this touching and sentimental comedy. Warren Schmidt is retired and has reached a point in his life where he is left wondering - What do I do now? What do I want? And what have I achieved? We follow his journey through heartache, indecision, and discovery. While at the same time laughing at the irony, madness, and subtle humour of many real life situations.
Although I prefer my comedy, a little more manic and in your face than this, I can still appreciate the sheer brilliance in the writing and performances, and I still found it to be a very entertaining movie.
7/10
