Teasing but hard to watch
By RustyJames from London , 09 Feb 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
If you can muster some pity for poor Gia Carangi, an early 80's supermodel who had a troubled short life, then you may enjoy this film.
Angelina Jolie appears naked... often. This does not make the script any better, but makes the film more watchable.
A perfect film to score for any music fan. Sadly the soundtrack is by far the greatest let down. No classic recordings and a poor synthesizer piece floating throughout. Feels like a made-for-TV movie.
If you are not an Angelina Jolie fan leave this alone.- Was this review helpful to you?

(78)Tragic story
By a customer from Purley, Surrey , 15 Dec 2011I found this a difficult one to give a star rating. I couldn't relate to the central character or the byte sized layout of the talking heads in the beginning. Boring boring. However, it got better as it progress and in the end moved from a 'one star' feeling to a 'three star' one. Tragic story, a warning to all kids on drugs or looking to hitch a ride in the fantasy world of fame. Very well acted by Angeline Jolie. For those with a saucy outlook it's notable for some splendid views of her in the buff, but the story itself is no laughing matter.- Was this review helpful to you?

A very thought provoking film, beautifully acted by Ms Jolie
By sarasmilesalot (1 review) , 02 May 2011This film certainly shows the darker side of the modelling industry. It was a very powerful film and Angelina Jolie gave a very moving performance- Was this review helpful to you?
