Audience Member "Girl, Interrupted" had an all star cast, each delivering the promise of a great performance. Angelina Jolie's and Wynona Rider's performances bring out their character's mental illnesses in such a way it is more of a reveal that is the whole spectrum of women's plight to be heard, seen, and free. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review William N Story of my life Well, high school seemed like such a blur I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections And in class I dreamed all day About a rock 'n' roll weekend And the girl in the front of the room So close yet so far, ya know she never seemed to notice That this silly school-boy crush wasn't just pretend Life goes by so fast You only want to do what you think is right Close your eyes and then it's past Story of my life Story of my life, la la la la Story of my life The story of my life And I went down to my old neighborhood The faces have all changed, there's no one there left to talk to And the pool hall I loved as a kid Is now a 7-Eleven And I went downtown to look for a job I had no training, no experience to speak of And I looked at the holes in my jeans And I turned and headed back Life goes by so fast You only want to do what you think is right Close your eyes and then it's past Story of my life Story of my life, la la la la Story of my life Story of my life And good times come and good times go I only wish the good times would last a little longer And I think about the good times we had And why they had to end So I sit at the edge of my bed I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song Thinkin' 'bout what you're doin' now And when you're comin' back Life goes by so fast You only want to do what you think is right Close your eyes and then it's past Story of my life Story of my life Story of my life Story of my life, la la la la Story of my life The story of my life Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/25 Full Review David F I wanted to watch this film because its title intrigued me. On the face of it it makes no sense, so I wanted to understand when people used the title, or made reference to the film in conversation. The film stars a lovely, shorn Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie, (not yet famous). The girls are inmates in an American mental institution, which is exactly the same as most mental institutions in films, especially those (for some reason) run by nuns. Whoopi Goldberg is also present as a nurse, but she's just present. She is a good actress, but sleepwalks through this film. Ryder does better, but Jolie steals the show, her character is really the person the film should be about. The film's treatment of mental illness is not in any sense enlightening, we could be watching Boris Karloff in Asylum or Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. We are told Ryder's character's diagnosis, but she does not exhibit much of anything throughout the film. When one of the patients hangs herself, we don't care, because the character has not been built in a way that makes us interested in her. Worth a watch, mainly for the three lead actresses, but ultimately unmoving. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/23/24 Full Review Marcelo oliveira c Esse filme, apesar de ser confuso e previsível, tem atuações intensas! Com performances impecáveis como a as de Brittany Murphy e Angelina Jolie, que vivem intensamente o personagem.

Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review Fabrícia F A imersão nessa experiência vista sob a perspectiva de pacientes de uma instituição psiquiátrica é muito interessante. Personagens com dramas pessoais que refletem a realidade. Vale a pena assistir. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
