One of the most tragic stories of all time!
What a tragic story..It makes you sad and angry at the same time..Power and money should always be in right hands..Eastwood did great job in this one and Angelina's perfomance was remarkable too! 7.7/10
Dark!
'Changeling' is a cracking release from 2008. Angelina Jolie gives a superb performance in the lead role, in a plot that is rather harrowing whilst also being actually incredibly infuriating - as in, the film does a great job at making the antagonists the antagonists.
The cast, spearheaded by Jolie, are excellent. No-one is on her level per se, but there are very good performances from the likes of John Malkovich, Michael Kelly, Jeffrey Donovan and Geoff Pierson; kid actor Eddie Alderson also impresses.
I will say that the story wraps up in a quicker manner than I thought it would, though the pacing of the 142 minute run time is in fact one of its positives - even at that length, I feel it could've drawn out the court trial stuff longer; though that may have hindered the pacing, so it's not really a noteworthy criticism of mine at all.
One worth recommending, no doubt!
LAPD been foul since forever. Great show for Jolie.
A true story
It would have been more tasteful to call it based on a true story as they have been pretty heavy handed with regards to what actually happened but I guess that's Hollywood for you.
Excellent acting throughout even by the kids but it felt like the pacing was all over the place which all in all made it a pretty slow burn.
Surprised this got such strong reviews. Very average. And way too long.
A great creation by Jolie and Harner. A big plus for the scenography as well.
A disturbing film made even more disturbing by knowing that women are still being treated this way, and that the police is still horrible and useless.

Extremely tragic and heartbreaking. Angelina Jolie at her best.
