Albert M. Shapiro claimed A frenzied, screwball comedy with a lighter-than-light touch, ´Nurse Betty´ is a radical departure for director Neil LaBute, who helmed the vitriolic ´In the Company of Men´ and ´Your Friends and Neighbors´. Betty (Ren?©e Zellweger) is a perky Kansas waitress whose sole happiness comes from her obsession with the television soap ´A Reason to Love´, starring dreamboat doctor David Ravell (Greg Kinnear). When her slimy car-dealer husband (Aaron Eckhart) enters into a drug transaction that goes horribly awry, Betty inadvertently witnesses the carnage and, in shock, becomes Nurse Betty, determined to reunite with her long-lost love, Dr. Ravell. Tailed by two hit men (Morgan Freeman and Chris Rock), Betty heads to L.A. a determined woman, unaware she has their huge drug stash in tow. Though it takes a good half-hour to get going, once LaBute and the movie hit top speed, it´s a surreal, often brilliant ride, as Betty´s fantasy and reality collide, with unexpected (´really´ unexpected) developments. The screenplay (by John C. Richards and James Flamberg) is wickedly inventive, and like his previous films, LaBute has assembled a peerless cast. Zellweger is charming and daffy in her best performance since ´Jerry Maguire´, and Freeman is by turns menacing and touchingly romantic in his obsession with Betty. Kinnear is the epitome of self-serving shallowness (and makes us love him all the more for it), and Rock finally shakes his standup persona and emerges as a great comic actor. Look also for a scene-stealing Allison Janney as the producer of Kinnear´s soap. Most movies rarely get such talent operating at full capacity, and ´Nurse Betty´ soars because of it. ´--Mark Englehart´
