Nurse Betty

Don’t worry about the plot – Renee Zellweger’s waitress thinks she’s living within a soap opera, all while hit men Morgan Freeman and Chris Rock track her down – and instead enjoy the loopy amiability with which the movie skips along. Zellweger’s rarely been better, Rock and Freeman make a clever comic team and director Neil LaBute guides them
all with an uncharacteristically gentle hand. This is a movie about dreamers – and for them.
