My first review I wanted to make on this special movie.

About Schmidt may looks like a sad movie about an old man in the midwestern, I do not want to say that this movie is not sad, but it is surprising profoundly and funny.

The shallowness of Warren Schmidts life, thoughts and reactions of.

His life' s occurrences is very amusing and honest.

The only reason for a bad review would be that it is offended to people who can identify with Schmidt, but this movie is not made for them! I' m sure Warren Schmidt wouldn't like this movie at all.

Jack Nicholson portrayes an ordinary man in our western civilisation in a brilliant performance. His performance doesn' t save this movie, but it gives an additional pleasure for a great work.

I have to be honest, the only reason why I have watched this movie was because I'm a big fan of Jack Nicholson, but I saw a dark satire of life which I can only discribe as an enrichment for movie history.
