Milla jovovich is awesome!


She blew my breath away in this film. She is both stunningly beautiful (and I love her squeaky voice), and an awesome actress. I am speaking as a straight woman, she is truly a woman for women to admire.
She takes many risks and is not into posing sexy constantly like a Cameron Diaz or an Angelina Jolie. She's not afraid to get dirty or cut her hair for a film.

I totally agree, Berlin_babe. I've loved her performance in this film since the first time I saw it.

She's also not your typical popstar/model who makes a shift into acting when their other career peters out. In Milla's case, she can genuinely act, and doesn't just rely on celebrity status. Even in films like "Fourth Kind", where she isn't playing on her beauty or physicality, she turns in an impressive performance.

Big Milla fan here.



You might very well think that. I couldn't possibly comment.

She definitely had the youthful looks and the screen presence.🐭

Yeah, well... The only thing is that Angelina Jolie is a far better actresse...

When she starts cranking up the manic schizophrenia with her wide-eyed shrieking the film really picks up steam, she almost makes this gormless dreck watchable
