Angela Reviews
Plays out like an urban fantasy.
I watched this film a few years ago and have never forgotten it. In it, we have two pre-teen sisters who are trying to deal with the mental state of their mother, which is getting worse and worse with each passing day. Their father is an endearing man, although a bit permissive, and does his best to hold the rocky family together.
The film takes a strange turn into what many conclude is our protagonist's (a girl named Angela) own slide into mental illness. I'm not sure that's the case, as I find reason to believe some aspects of her visions might have very well been true, but the point is that she's a tormented soul and finds escapism through a vivid imagination and a self-made quest that frees her mind from what's currently happening. This is a quest for purification from the evil of the world, one that she brings her sister along for the ride, and one that finds a handsome, peaceful Lucifer as their largest obstacle. He simply states to her on numerous times, "I want you, Angela" in a very gentle, yet thouroughly dark way.
Eventually, Angela's quest, with her young sister at her side, takes her across the back roads of her town. Her firm belief in her journey makes her the near victim of a crime as well as the viewer of some very bizarre happenings. In the end, Angela decides to face her fears directly.
The end of this film will leave you in awe.
Superior film and wonderful young heroine
You never know for sure what a film will be like when you order it. Sometimes you are pleased, sometimes not. Angela is truly a superior film and it exceeeded my expectations. The storyline took a sad turn with the mental instability of Angela's mother and how she had to be placed in an institution. However, I was more than uplifted by the job done by the girl who played Angela and how she kept seeking God and Heaven. Miranda Stuart Rhyne's performance was most enchanting. This is the best movie that I have bought from Amazon to date. I really felt for Angela as she fought her nightmares and kept on her spiritual journey. I will watch this movie again and again and that is not something that I do very often. The young teen actress did a better acting job here than most actors and actresses do that are two or three times her age! She should have a spectacular film career ahead of her! I highly recommend this movie!
