At the time THE BONE COLLECTOR was made, Denzel Washington was Hollywood's top leading man, but Queen Latifah and Angelina Jolie were relatively unknown newcomers. Watching this movie, it's easy to see why both actresses eventually made it big. Denzel plays a well-known police investigator and author who becomes a quadriplegic. He thinks he wants to die --- until he's confronted by a killer and decides to fight back. (If you're a quadriplegic who thinks you're defenseless, pay close attention to what Denzel does at the end; it's astonishing, yet possible). Queen Latifah, as Denzel's in-home care provider, delivers one of her finest dramatic performances. She truly becomes her character. Jolie is also incredible, because this is not her typical role. Often, Angelina Jolie plays herself: first the crazy wild-child she was during her marriage to Billy Bob Thornton (GIRL INTERRUPTED; GIA), then the strong woman taking on the world by herself (THE CHANGELING; TOMB RAIDER; BEYOND BORDERS). In THE BONE COLLECTOR, Jolie is a good police officer and a good woman, but she is not an independent crusader. She functions as Denzel's surrogate body, going to crime scenes he cannot visit and reporting back. Denzel is the brilliant investigator, while Jolie has potential but is often unsure or unwilling. She is just as dependent on him as he is on her. The actors portray this relationship very believably. THE BONE COLLECTOR is also a great mystery. You probably won't guess the killer's identity until Denzel does.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I don't even like Angelina Jolie, but she shine in the Bone Collector. One of her earlier films, shows a young Jolie portraying a young cop who gets sucked in on a case that will stretch her skills and her will to their limit. Denzel Washington never fails to amaze. A great movie, but too gory for anyone under 18.
