Great acting

Rating: 5/10 (24 September 2000)

The problem with "Girl, Interrupted" is that the main character Susanna (Winona Ryder) is rather boring. Actually, there are only two really interesting characters in the film: Angelina Jolie's sociopath and the girl played by Brittany Murphy. But even though Susanna is pretty boring, the film isn't. I think it's a rather interesting and entertaining film. Of course, it's too long (over two hours) and in the beginning it's too episodic, but overall I think it's an okay film. And brilliant acting by Ryder, Jolie (in particular) and Murphy, of course. (5/10)
