Angela Jollie Before She Was Famous, 9 February 2005
4/10
Author: FloatingOpera7 from United States

This movie is not that good. I watched it late at night on TV and it is a movie that definitely belongs on late night when mostly bad movies, obscure films are presented. It is one of those slow-paced movies that suffer of poor writing and a bad script. The Mojave desert is the setting and the premise is quite simple- a 50 yr old divorced man meets a sexy young woman (Angelina Jollie) who asks him to take her to her home in the desert. There he meets the girl's mother who is internally struggling with a bad marriage to a nasty man. The weird, Stepford Wife like mom is played quite over-the-top. The poor victim is lured into covering up a murder and it goes from there. The movie was really really bad, with cheesy dialog. It was made in 1996 and at this time Angelina Jollie was not quite yet a star. She would start to be noticed in Girl Interrupted and most famously in "Tomb Raider" followed by Beyond Borders and several other films. Angelina Jollie would also become famous for her changing lifestyle- from rebellious wild child to a humanitarian woman who worked in refugee camps and adopted an Asian boy and is thinking of adopting more children in the vein of Mia Farrow. This movie is only nice to watch for fans of Angelina Jollie who plays a close parody of her own personality at the time before she 'settled down". This is still a bad movie that could use some gloss and polish.
