Nurse Betty [2000] Renée Zellweger, Morgan Freeman, Chris Rock DVD

Fantastic interpretation of human extreme's. The Obsession with "Soap TV" as real (I know these people ) The Extreme reaction (Trauma) to watching the murder. Everyone falls in love with her. All these play a part in this beautifully crafted BLACK comedy. Great acting by everyone. Super photography and direction. This is a hidden gem one for the bucket list. Memorable. I really loved it.

Great DVD, Great movie. I was so invested in the characters

This film was a real suprise for me a good one at that. Renee zellweger really holds her own amgonst the male cast. I would say to anyone dont watch the trailer as it put me off the film to begin with i feel the trailer doesnt show the film in the best light, worth buying thanks amazon.

Awful and boring. Im a great admirer of Renee but this was dismal. Sorry. Any lover of Renee try Miss Potter the story of Beatrix Potter . Its absolutely fabulous. Linda

A great cast with Renee Zellweger, Chris Rock and Morgan Freeman. The story of a waitress in Kansas with a horrible cheating hubby. She is obsessed with a hospital soap & one of the dishy Drs in particular, The low life husband makes the mistake of stealing some drugs and Betty ends up seeing him being murdered by their owners (Freeman and Rock). She then goes off into a fantasy world - which happens to incorporate quite a lot of small references to the Wizard of Oz if you watch carefully. She goes off in pursuit of the tv Dr not realising the drugs are in the back of the car she takes, so Rock & Freeman set off after her. It's a great film, can't understand why it's not shown on tv as there are a lot of laughs in it even in the darker moments ! Highly recommended

Really funny film love it

There is a Surprisingly violent scene in this charming whimsical film. Be warned!

I really looked forward to watching this, but alas no joy. It does not work. It does not work on English dvd players

Ein Film der absolut lustig und goldig gemacht ist. Darf eigentlich schon als Must-See bezeichnet werden. :)

Great job and very fast!*

j'ai reçu le DVD dans les temps, aspect conformément à ce qu'il était indiqué, je recommande pour ceux qui veulent de l'action, de la comédie hors norme

I say about 10 movies should try to imitate this film and about 20 movies should be influenced by this movie in the future. This movie is so original that so many movies in the future should try to learn from it how this movie tells the story, how this movie charactorizes each actors. I had a VHS tape for years and I bought the DVD back in 2009 and probably have watched 5 times. It was not a lot since I have watched movies like <Blade Runner><Black Rain><Someone to watch over me><A Better Tomorrow 2><The Killer><Time of the Gypsies> <Bugsy>about 20-30 times in my life. But still it's a lot of times watching this movie and each time I saw, it just made me so surprised how much original this movie is. Don't you ever guess this movie is about some woman who worked as a nurse who is dedicated to a nurse work all her life or something. This story is far from it. The story to be told in a most short way is,... There is this woman who is married to this stupid man who is a second hand car shop owner who is messing around with stupid women from his shop all the time. He is doing other bad things with mob kind of guys dealing with drugs and this time he stole from them. He got killed in the house while the wife Renee Zellweger is watching this 'almost crazy about' soap Opera (Drama) `A Reason To Love' she witnesses her husband's death and she becomes confused that she is part of that drama and the doctor from that drama is real and she is his lover. This is kind of a mental thing by shock. After the killers are all gone not knowing that Renee was exist, and the cops searching the house, she decides to go to LA to find the doctor from the hospital which is not even exist-only in the drama it is. Now the new journey begins to her. There are so many good things in this movie. The way to LA, she meets this old lady working at a restaurant and when Renee talks about the doctor she is about to meet- she said she was his lover once but they were apart some time ago but she is going to LA to be together again. When the old lady hears the whole story and the name of the doctor and the name of the hospital, she knew that what she is talking about this from the drama. If this is from my country, South Korea, the lady probably would shout at her or treated her as a crazy woman. But she didn't. She worried about her that she might get hurt finding out that she was wrong and everything was her imagination. She even blessed her that she will end up with acheiving something in LA. She appeared such a short time but she was a great actor. I think her name is Tina Smith(actress). Also as usual, Morgan Freeman is a mob who killed Renee's husband (Not actually killed but part of it) treated Renee gracefully because right after seeing her he tought her as someone different. Someone pure minded. Criss Rock was anothr mob who was a tough bad mouthed guy who actually kills the husband and a bunch of other people who is Morgan's son. He did his job well too. Greg Kinnear had two faces. A sweet one and a very cruel one. He acted as a doctor charactor from the drama `A Reason To Love' and when Renee approached him thinking that he is her real boyfriend, he was totally glued by her attitude. He literally was shocked. First he thought that she wanted some small roll from the TV drama. He thought that she is an actress desperately looking for any roll for the TV show. But then she was so different. She was so lovable. But when finally he puts her to the TV show, she was freezed and couldn't act, he was so angry at her and shouts to her to death. The ending was a great happy one and you will love it. The director succeeds to make more movies and now he made many. But sadly none of them became a bluck buster. [...]

Cela faisait longtemps que j'avais envie de revoir cette comédie policière très bien écrite, drôle et au cast tout à fait charmant. Le son est bon et l'image, très médiocre, mais au moins, le plaisir de visionnage est bien là.
