this movie pissed me off. the main character is so cool but he lives with a bunch of dumb bitches who deserve to die. i was waiting for those dumb cunts to be killed by someone. i was disappointed that he had to die and the cheating bitch ass wife and his stupid, useless, ungrateful, and hateful daughter did not.

Actually if you look at her very closely, with hair style and voice, Annette Bening can be a Hillary Clinton character if it needs to be used in a movie or television series.
I have not seen this movie yet, I can't believe it either. How does his wife not know where he works, or dishes switch jobs without her knowing? Or should I just go rent it and find out for myself?
He tells her that he already has a new job when she balks about him quitting his career. However, she doesn't care to find out where. She'd probably look down on fast-food job anyway...
This film wouldn't be nearly as good without Spacey. He really makes this film his own! Surprised there aren't a dozen more films with him in this type of role.
I'm wondering if Lester wants Carolyn really to be happy and therefore has no problems that she is making out with Buddy or is it just pure irony? What do you think? I'm thinking (or better: feeling) he has no problems with that although I don't quite understand why exactly he has no problems with it.
@ElaM1NaTo I think you're right, I think he realizes his marriage (and many other things in his life such as his job) aren't as important as he thought they were, so he begins to let go and develops the 'nothing to lose' attitude...i don't think it's that he doesn't care, i think he just has a revelation about life, that it's something you shouldn't take TOO seriously
So true PN2543...this film typifies where a lot of married couples are these days after 10, 15, 20 years of marriage. Wife is so stuck on herself, doesn't give a shit about the husband anymore, thinks sex once a month (or longer!) is just fine, husbands career has derailed (through no fault of his own) and complains constantly, is bitchy and hormonal. SOOOOOO nice to see a film like this from the man's point of view. Ladies????
@PATRI0TUL What does being a woman have to do with this? Guys can do the exact same thing that she did...take it from experience. Not to mention I love this scene.
Go Lester!!! Today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go fuck himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.
finally, a romantic comedy from the guy's point of view! watching this film together would be a good test for any prospective couples thinking about getting married, if the couple can watch the whole thing together and not end up disgusted with each other's reactions to the film by the end, then i would bet they would have a very good chance of staying together. Annette Benning is great, check her out in the prophetic 9-11 film 'The Siege' for another great role.
I just noticed, at the start of Lester's rise to awesome, Janine says through the intercom that the Beef and Cheese Pot-Pie-On-A-stick was $1.29; here, Lester says $1.99.
LOL, senior drive thru manager, LOL as opposed to just the drive thru manager. BUT yeah, you are SOOOOO busted, dham i only had a couple beers, but that is soo funny
ça c'est un film divertissent et qui propose une vision de la vie tres positive, l'anti drame par exellence. Il évoque la simpilcité, le naturel dans nos vie modernes, et le fait qu'a tout moment on peut prendre ou reprendre sa vie, rien n'est jamais finis. C'est un film authentique qui nous fait réfléchir et qui invite a la remise en question, la jeunesse n'est pas le nombre d'année et la maturité se confond parfois avec elle... Un film que je vous conseille vivement. La vie ne doit pas finir.
This is a film that entertains and offer a life visoin very positive, anti drama par excellence. It evokes the simpilcité, the natural in our modern life, and the fact that at any moment you can take or resume his life, nothing is ever finished. This is an authentic film that makes us think about us a little cloud.
He cracks me up! I'm not gonna lie, he also turned me on in this movie. I just love on how he can be passionate and gentle on some of the scenes with the women.
Voice recognition at the beginning, at 0:19 from her, face recognition a few second later...What an encounter! What a violent (the hilarious avenger killer face of Spacey at 0:10) and funny situation (considering that he had to fight to be accepted in this underqualified and underpayed job), what dialogues then, what actors! What filmmaker! This scene is cult for some reasons...
I was really disappointed overall with "American Beauty" but one thing - along with Thomas Newman's score and Conrad Hall's cinematography - that I can't praise enough about the film is Kevin Spacey's brilliant performance!
I have always said it and will stand by it wholeheartedly that there is really no atheist in the world. The moment anyone who says he or she is an atheist finds him or herself in deep trouble of ANY kind especially health problems that are life threatening blurt out the words "Please God help me" THAT'S when the truth comes out. It never fails me.
@rrbetbcm So because some guy you knew said, "Please God help me" that means all atheists are lying? Hmmm.........So if I say, "God Dammit" does that mean I'm no longer an atheist anymore?
@rrbetbcm Well when you're brought up being told that there's an almighty all-loving being that's been known to heal the sick before, your mind would be retarded not to appeal to help from them in your final moments/ months. That said, I wonder how many of these people got no help? Hmm.
