'The Fisher King' is one of those films that falls under the either love it or hate it category. I personally can't see why anyone would not like this film! Jeff Bridges, Robin Williams, Mercedes Ruehl, Amanda Plummer and Michael Jeter give fantastic performances in this quirky, original, dramedy with elements of fantasy thrown in for good measure! It's a wonderful ride that takes the viewer from fall on the floor laughter to gut wrenching tragity the next and it's totally engrossing from start to finish.
