I rarely use the term, but "The Fisher King" is a "cool" movie.  It's a bit slow off the line, but once the relationship between Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams begins, it's absolutely captivating.  The acting is superb, the human perceptions profound, personal transitions believable and satisfying, love stories unpredictable, entertaining and ultimately extremely touching.  The subtle statements about the differences between men and women are right on.  Not always a Gilliam fan as his movies tend to be too abstract for me, I'd recommend "The Fisher King" to anybody.  In a strange way, it's the ultimate buddy movie.
