To be sure, Ryder conveys the confusion and chaos that signified Kaysen's life during nearly 18 months of voluntary institutionalization beginning in 1967. But the film seems too eager to embrace the cliché that the "crazies" of the Claymoore women's ward are saner than the war-torn world outside, and lack of narrative focus gives way to semipredictable character study. Susanna (Ryder) is labeled with "borderline personality disorder," a diagnosis as ambiguous as her own emotions, and while Jolie chews the scenery as the resident bad-girl sociopath, Ryder effectively conveys an odyssey from vulnerable fear to self-awareness and, finally, to healing. The ensemble cast is uniformly superb, making this drama well worthwhile, even as it treads familiar territory. If it ultimately lacks dramatic impact, Girl, Interrupted makes it painfully clear that the boundaries of dysfunction are hazy in a world where everyone's crazy once in a while. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews of Girl, Interrupted
doesn't really follow the book, does it? Lots of extra stuff that wasn't in Kaysen's memoir--that bothers me. It just seemed like it was a chance for Winona Ryder to attempt "real" acting, and to gain respect as an actor. Instead, Jolie snagged the Oscar, and Ryder slipped into A Scanner Darkly. <
>Ryder again showcases her highly over-emotive acting ability that has been overrated from day one, and Jolie gets to look crazy and beautiful at the same time for the umpteenth millionth time. YAWN. <
>Read the book instead.
Girl Interrupted
This is a very true story based on true facts.
<
>It's very intense, sad, happy, triumphant, provocative in many ways, it's nerve wracking, it's exciting in some ways. It all depends on your perspective, but I think this movie has a not to offer and is very knowledgeable to the ways of the insane.
<
>Angelina Jolie, Whoopie Goldberg,and Winona Ryder are exceptional in this movie.
<
>Jared Leto, even though he has not that many scenes adds a very nice flavor to the break in manotony of the story line. He, along with the ladies mentioned, are all just so phenominally talented in their crafts.
<
>It's war time, Vietnam to be exact, he is drafted, but leaves the country. Winona's character, although she does love him, knows that she must stay behind and take care of herself. She comes to terms with her own demons, and sacrifices her love for him to take care of herself.
<
>She not only wins her own battles with depression, but also wakes up the self awareness to many of those who she shares her story with.
<
>Those who win the inner war within themselves succeed to move on to normal somewhat happy lives. Those who can't get past themselves, remain locked inside of their own heads.
<
>This is a very compelling movie of self worth, self control, self respect, and respect for others as very delicate beings.
<
>I highly recommend this movie to anyone who suffers from self doubt and depression. I think it could really help, and inspire those who need self motivation, when you think all else has failed.
<
>It's about gathering all that is within you, and finding love within yourself, FOR yourself.
<
>I give this movie 5*'s.
<
>Excellant performances by Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie, WHOOPIE GOLDBERG, and Jared Leto.
