Clint Eastwood makes a movie that might not be loved by the Academy? NO WAI.


The word coming out of New York Film Festival press screenings about Clint Eastwood's new film, The Changeling, is not good. In fact, that movie sounds like it sucks, like it's a joke. Ed Douglas of Coming Soon has Twittered that he'll be giving the film a 2 out of 10; Karina Longworth of Spout has this memorable drinking game for the movie:

We drink every time Angelina hysterically proclaims, “He’s not my son!” We get very drunk, and this may be why we can’t figure out why Clint Eastwood made a cheap-looking Lifetime movie that eventually turns into an “And justice for all!” episode of SVU. Just when the drinking game is starting to get really out of control, there’s a twist so shocking that it’s punctuated by two inches of ash falling off a policeman’s cigarette … in slow motion.


Ouch. This is a reversal from Cannes; Cinematical's Kim Voynar loved the shit out of the movie in France. Considering the fact that I think that Eastwood is a big naked emperor these days, I'm leaning towards believing the negative nancies.

What is this dumb movie even about?

Also if we drank every time Jolie made a shit movie, we'd get very drunk. Actually, we'd probably be dead by now.

The storyline is interesting. A woman's child disappears. A child is returned to her some time later whom she swears is not her son. The cops say it is her son and when she publicly says otherwise she gets locked in a loony bin. I don't know how it ends but I know it's based on a true story.

I agree that Jolie makes nothing but shit movies. I was hoping that this one would be a bit better. Guess not.

Clint Eastwood is WAY overrated. This comes as no suprise.
Angelinas ~talent~ doesn't help the film either.

Even the preview for the movie makes it look like a Lifetime movie of the week. And Angie looks old.

I watched yesterday's Daily Show with Clint Eastwood, and between Angelina's histrionics in the clip they showed and Jon Stewart shamelessly blowing smoke up Clint's ass the whole interview, I think I'm gonna pass.

Well, that doesn't sound good. I'm very surprised because Clint is a good director although a bit of an ass and Angelina's a good actress. Oh well, I'll wait for the ads to decide whether I'll see it or not. I've never seen an Eastwood movie.

Do you mean that you never saw a movie in which Eastwood acted in or do you mean that you never saw a directed Eastwood film?

The son actually belongs to Jennifer Aniston and after learning this, Jolie decides to keep him.
