Mr. and Mrs. Self Centered

Rating: 5/10 (14 June 2005)

I am not a particularly huge fan of Angelina Jolie  I believe she is somewhat typecast as a female "Rambo" although that may not be entirely her decision. This movie bothered me chiefly because of its implied message: that married couples have the right to beat the crap out of each other. It is violent, disrespectful to the sanctity of marriage, and predictable, I yawned throughout the movie. I wonder if it would ever be possible for two big "stars" to make a movie about a relationship that is based on honesty, forgiveness, tolerance, and integrity. That might be asking for too much since both of these actors have little knowledge (IMHO) of how to form a trusting healthy relationship. PerhAps they were the right individuals to be in a movie like this after all.
