Changling... Way to go Angelina!


Has anyone seen the movie Changling? Well, Jason and I rented it over a week ago and finally got around to watching it tonight. My brother and Alyssa also watched it with us. We just finished it actually, and it's 1:15 am. It's a true story and I knew before I watched it that it happened right around the corner from Corona, in Mira Loma...so creepy. This movie upset me. It made me mad. It made me sad. I cried quite a few times through out it, as well. If you haven't seen it, rent it. But I'm telling you that it will leave you feeling very weary and probably a little upset. There are some movies that just have leave an impact on me, and this was one of them. I can't stop thinking about it. I started this post last night when we finished the movie, and now it's Sunday morning and I'm still thinking about it. I even had awful dreams about it. I don't want to give any of it away for those of you who may go rent it, so I'll just keep it at this. It's a great movie with a few great actors and it will definitely leave you feeling a lot of sympathy for Angelina Jolie's character. I thought she was excellent in this film. Prior to watching Changling I didn't have a high opinion of her, but this movie has changed my mind a little bit. I thought her acting was great. So I would like to know your views on this movie...

Angelina is not my favorite, but she was phenominal in this movie! Very thought provoking, and yes, disturbing too. But great movie!

I agree. Angelina as a person, seems like a strange individual, but as an actress, I think she is great. She did an amazing job in Changeling. It was just so sad and disturbing that this was a true story and I had a hard time watching it because of that.
