Review of A Mighty Heart (2007) by Nancy B — 03 Jan 2010

How is it possible that, while watching a movie about such a horrible event as Daniel Pearl's beheading, my predominant emotions would be frustration and annoyance? I saw no insight into the characters or their relationships - just a mix of real news footage and fake news footage about how they tried to find the kidnappers.

Angelina's acting was flat and boring. Her pregnant belly and her curly wig looked too perfect and fake. Her wig was identical throughout, from her wedding flashbacks to her monotonic screaming when she heard her husband was dead. I didn't believe her at all.
