One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Nurse Ratched is top 5 most evil villains in film, probably ahead of Thanos. I loved every second of this one and it kept me on my toes because of how unpredictable all the characters were. The ending is perfect; sad, yet hopeful, and the music in this film is amazing.

"If he's crazy, what does that make you?"

My god, what a movie to end the year on, I mean, One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest is an absolute masterpiece, its pacy, it’s fun, it delivers on multiple meaningful messages, the acting is phenomenal and the ending is just pitch perfect.

One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest is a once in a lifetime watch that I cannot recommend enough, if you haven’t seen it, you are missing out one quite frankly the greatest thing Warner Bros has ever put out.

1st Act 9.2/10 (Easy steady pacing, but doesn’t pick up until like 25-30 minutes in which is at the basketball scene.)

2nd Act 9.8/10 (Near perfection, I was in awe while watching, and I loved every bit, though it was quite hard to get into the characters because of how they only used last names.)

3rd Act 10/10 (Well slap me in the face and call me a bitch, cause holy shit was it good, like start to finish it had me in a chokehold like an alcoholic step dad.)

Plot 10/10 (Incredibly executed, couldn’t have been done any better, One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest is a movie I actually believe I couldn’t make, which given the fact I believe I can do anything with film, that truly is something.)

Soundtrack/Score 9.0/10 (Proves that few and far music works in cinema.)

Acting 11/10 (I mean cmon, Jack Nicholson, Danny Devito, Christopher Lloyd, Brad Dourif and Sydney Lassick are all giving all time performances.)

Pacing 9.8/10 (Perfectly paced past the first 25 minutes.)

Cinematography 9.5/10 (End scene is incredible along with the close ups.)

Character Development 11/10 (Mac and Chief’s dynamic is absolutely fucking brilliant, along with the influence they had on everyone.)

Writing 11/10 (The dialogue is not only so fucking good, but the underlying messages make it so much fucking better.)

Ending 10/10 (I wouldn’t leave you like this.)

Direction 9.7/10 (Genuinely so fucking good, like my god.)

Overall
