I've just watched Changeling and I must say, I'm impressed about how they took what sounds like it should be an exciting true story and slowly wrung all the drama and pathos out of it and put the dull remnants up on screen. It starts boring and ends boring but manages to reach the heights of just insipidly dull on the way. And probably about half an hour longer than even the most patient watcher's tolerance. It also scores a '3' on the 'JMS using ideas or sometimes even whole lines of dialogue from Babylon 5'-scale.

Also, did they realise they can't show something is traumatic simply by increasing the size of Angelina Jolie's lips? I swear she could have swept the nurses helplessly aside with those things in the middle there.
