   Nominated for two Golden Globe awards including best Picture (musical or comedy), “Patch Adams” is by far, one of the most heartbreaking comedies or hilarious tragedies I have ever seen. After reading a few reviews of the site, I noticed that most critics bashed this film because it was against the medicine techniques. Well, to those naïve persons, I have to tell you that “Patch Adams” is based on the autobiography of the person of the same name. I rarely cry in a film and I cried in this one so that gives it even more credit. Plus, the performances are top notch, especially Robin William’s believable interpretation of Patch. All I’ll tell you, ignore the critics, go watch this film. Take it seriously and cry of emotion.… Expand

   No. This is a very well made annoying film. I've often said that movies NEED to be manipulative, but they don't need to kick you in the crotch to make you cry. I'm really here to defend Robin Williams, who's a damn good actor and turns out a great performance in the irritating central role of a doomed movie. Not enough to save it, because his good performance pushes with the tide instead of against it. You want a good film with Robin Williams in a serious role, rent Good Will Hunting or...there is another one. Awakenings, that's it. Or, at a push, What Dreams May Come, similarly manipulative to this film, but with imagination and life to balance it out.… Expand
