Enjoyed the movie. Thought the story was well told and understandable. Their was no overacting by any of the characters.Very realistically done.Whole cast well acted and there was nooveracting. The story is more documentary and is not made to be a Hollywood story but a realistic story.Angelie Jolie was perfect with her dialect, mannerisms and was a ideal casting . Told a good story about

This movie put all three of us who saw it today asleep several times and it was in the afternoon! This movie is so boring and slow. It is a sad true story but should not have been made into a feature movie. A TV docudrama would have been much better.

"A Mighty Heart" Bombed for two reasons.First, the majority of the movie audienceare young people between 18 and 25 andthey would rather see Agelina swinging]from a rope, than a human interest story.Second, Hollywood has shot themselves inthe foot because the've shoved so manyaction and adventure movies down theirthroats that that's all they want to see.That is why you don't see too many

As another writer/reviewer says: I also looked at my watch. Horrible accent by Jolie. More of a documentary; save your money.
