Fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (20 August 2010)

Changeling is based on a true story about a mother whose son disappears and while that sound like a simple/ familiar story, the film is excellent. I was expecting a good film having seen Letters from Iwo Jima but this film shows all of Eastwood's talents. The acting, cinematography, production design and directing are all superb.
Angelina Jolie gives a great performance and deserved the Oscar nomination. The supporting cast are also very good ensuring that the film never drops in quality when Jolie is not on screen.
While the story maybe too dark and disturbing for some (there is a scene that will make you question if yo want to watch the film again), for those who choose to watch the film will find it to be a gripping experience that leaves you hanging on every word and will leave the viewer satisfied.
