Advantages: Humerous, sad, and enjoyable

Disadvantages: Nothing i can think of

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest is sent in an asylum. Jack Nicholson has been in and out of various prisons and after much deliberation is sent to the asylum as a last resort to curb his wild behaviour.

It is evident that he is not mentally disturbed, just wild! His sole aim is to cause as much disruption as possible and his inner child breaks free, when he continually refuses to tow the line. He plays mind games with the other inmates, and Nurse Ratchett, who he loves to hate. His antics soon lead to others being punished, and he is then punished severely for the continuation of rule breaking. Hi relationship with 'Chief' is a pleasure to watch.

The film is both humerous and touching and looks at human nature and how quickly the spirit can be broken when put in a position that you cannot control. Jack Nicholson is at his best, and this film also brought Danny Devito into the limelight.

If you ever see a film before you depart this world, this is one you should see. It is one of my top 10.

Summary: One of the top 10 best films ever in my opinion
