i was very disappointed in Clint Eastwood's "The Changeling". it was boring and way too long, and i'm sorry, but i can't buy Angelina Jolie as a vulnerable character. now had she cocked a sawed off shotgun and uttered the line "that's not my son", i would have bought it.
but, Clint more than redeemed himself with his other 2008 release "Gran Torino". it was splendid, masterful, haunting and smart. it could easily win Best Picture, Best Director & Best Actor.
i saw alot of movies over the holiday season. some were good, some were bad, and some were downright ugly. here's my 2 cents:
THE GOOD: doubt slumdog millionaire gran torino synecdoche, new york frozen river the reader milk vicky cristina barcelona australia the wrestler
THE BAD & THE UGLY: benjamin button changeling revolution road seven pounds what just happened defiance tale of despereaux quantum of solace rachel getting married
"RuBen Button" by Brian Heinberg
