As Good As It Gets
We watched this after The Break-Up, and it was just what I needed to see - a warm, funny, cute movie that left me feeling much better than when I started watching it. The way Jack Nicholson played Melvin was fantastic.
***SPOILERS***
I started off the movie hating him (he put a dog down the trash chute!), and by the time the movie finished I was hoping he'd get a happily ever after with Helen Hunt. Greg Kinnear was great as Simon, and I LOVED his interaction with Melvin towards the end of the movie. I also loved the way Cuba Gooding Jr.'s character got Melvin to help out. Of course, one of my favorite things about the movie was the way Melvin and the dog got so attached to each other. It was definitely a movie to watch snuggled up with my husband and pups.
