angelina steals this film

Rating: Null/10 (4 July 2001)

angelina jolie totally blew me away in this film. probably the most charismatic and talented actor of recent times. overall this is a great watchable film but angelina steals the show as a sociopath that could charm the pants off you with her natural aplomb and charisma, she makes the screen come to life and you cant wait for the next scene with her in it. the supporting cast is great too and it just manages to avoid the hollywood shmalz. Winona Riders performance nearly crosses the line of being cheesy at times but generally she is good. this highlights a serious issue that has been dealt with before but stands out from the rest mainly because of the nearly all female cast and the humour. even though this is a drama there were a few laugh out loud moments for me. touching, funny, tragic and sad at times, great film.
