Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

allnitediner This was one of my favorite shows of all time but it felt forced starting at season 5. We lost characters that brought so much to the show and gained characters that cheapened it. Cliche after cliche, unrealistic storylines and unnecessary nudity from a character we're supposed to respect. It became apparent that the writers were grasping at straws to keep people interested, but the show was perfect as it was.

kookie1258 I was totally addicted to this series on Netflix. I binged watched it and it was worth it. The ending was not what I expected; It left me with wanting more! Yes, I am a Nurse Jackie Addict.

Heidi Brown This show was great. Yes, it has its weak points... but, you genuinely care for the characters in the show the whole time. Edie Falco does an amazing job at making you believe she's willing to do just about anything to pick up. She constantly lies to her closest friends, family.. her daughters, who are the only thing she seems to actually care about for real, for brief periods. Aside from perhaps her job, which I think is what pulls you back time & time again - her ability to care and fight for her patients. So funny she doesn't put that effort into her own life. So many great filming techniques to tie themes/scenes together. Smart TV.The characters are lovable, and remind you of people in your own life. The jokes are funny, the lows are lows. It really puts into perspective (in sometimes campy ways) what life with an addict can be.

blanche-2 Edie Falco, such a great mob wife on "The Sopranos," here does a turn as "Nurse Jackie" in this series, with each episode a half hour.Jackie works at All Saints Hospital in New York City. She's a wife and mother of two daughters. Her husband Kevin (Dominic Fumosa) owns a bar. Jackie is well liked, in fact beloved, by patients and staff alike at All Saints. There's her boss Gloria (Anna Deveare Smith), Eleanor (Eve Best), Zoey (Merritt Weaver), Thor (Stephen Wallam), Fitch (Peter Facinelli), and her some time boyfriend, the pharmacist Eddie (Paul Schulze).What most people aren't aware of is that Jackie is a major drug addict who pops pills constantly - she steals them, fakes prescriptions, buys them, suckers people out of them, whatever she has to do. She hides them at home. The sad thing is, she's an excellent nurse, a caring person, and a loving mother.As her condition worsens, her life falls apart.We follow Jackie through detox and 12-step meetings and watch her go through a series of friends and lovers. Her ability to lie right to people's faces is shocking, and the way she compartmentalizes her life is striking. When her husband visits her at the hospital, Zooey says to him, "Jackie isn't married." Even those who work closely with her don't really know her.Edie Falco is amazing as Jackie, who has you believing there is nothing wrong with her when she's high as a kite, and when she's clean, makes you suspect she's high. She is surrounded by a wonderful cast, the best being award-winner Merritt Weaver as Zooey, a nursing student who idolizes Jackie. Most of the actors have a background in stage work: Eve Best is from the British theater, Stephen Wallam from musicals, Anna Deavere Smith does remarkable one-woman shows, besides TV, stage and film.I was really sorry to see Eve Best go, with her insane Manolo Blahnik shoes and vivacious British humor.The series is filled with humor, sadness, surprises, darkness, with realistic hospital situations, though the show doesn't revolve around the hospital. Through it all, Falco gives an honest performance in her portrayal of a woman who lives a destructive secret life but puts on a normal face. It's so realistic it's chilling.
