Favorite Jack Nicholson performance?

I would say his best is The Shining.

The Shining is over-rated.

I liked As good as it gets better.

It was cool how he played his character. The whole obsessive/compulsive and that other one i cant remember. Very nicely dne.

About Shmidt. I just didn't like the Shining or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's because they were so bad compared to the books.

I've practically seen them all and Anger Management wouldn't make my top 5 but I voted for that one because like I said, he totally stole the show which I didn't expect.
