now this was really funny movie I enjoyed it very much.

one part I like is when the actress who plays Carin Fisher asks Patch 'when can I open my eyes?' and Patch replies 'as soon as I open mine' I just laffed and laffed when I see that part in the movie.

what r ur thoughts on this awesome movie?

I remembered when our professor made that as our assignment. We just need to watch and air our thoughts about how Patch lived his life. And yah, I really thought it was one of those boring films but I get engrossed after sitting there, watching the movie go slowly for the first 15 minutes....
then boom....
It suddenly is making sense.
"Laughter is still the best medicine."

One of the most inspiring movies I considered ever made.

Patch Adams is one of my favorite movies. I can put this movie on if I need a good laugh and a good cry. Robin Williams did an awesome job, as asual. I love the movie so much that I have it on DVD and on VHS, just in case.

I'm glad you mentioned this movie! I've never seen it, and I really want to!
I met Patch Adams back in '95' at a work conference. He was great! He had us all laughing and getting acquainted with each other in no time!
Have a great Thanksgiving!

I think they should make every doctor watch it before they are allowed to treat anyone.

Honestly, I thought it was "average" at best. I love Robin Williams, but even he could not save this movie from being just run of the mill.

I love the true story of Patch Adams though. And I agree. Doctors should follow his example in alot of ways.
