She falls into the same sort of tabloid syndrome Tom Cruise does, even if they've landed there for different reasons. My first thoughts of her go back to having a laugh at the latest tabloids, joking with friends about her interviews and magazine headlines during break time at work. In some ways, that actually gives me a bit of a soft spot for her. (Not for Tom, though, thank you very much. But back to the topic at hand...)

I do think there's a few gems in her filmography, even if they take a bit of digging to get to now. Check out her films made before 2000 or so - of course there's "Girl, Interrupted" but I think "Gia" does an even better job of showing her at her absolute best. Her acting is top notch in both of those films. There's something rather vital & fresh about her first handful of roles, something that is very 'anti-Hollywood' and so very different than how she comes across now, both on screen & off screen.

A film not many people seem to remember is "Original Sin" from 2001. If you find the unrated version on DVD & if you enjoy films of the "Dangerous Liaisons" sort, it's definitely worth a go, even if only as a fun guilty pleasure. The movie itself felt quite sexy, and so it lured me into finding Angelina & co-star Antonio Banderas sexy, too - even if only until the credits rolled.

I only liked her as Laura Croft................otherwise those big puffy wrinkly lips scare the bejesus out of me...seriously..thats attractive?

All my female friends think she is hot though!

GAG give me a break will ya. I'm so sick of hearing about her I could just puke.

Skank. I hate adulteresses and crazy people.

Shes beautiful but annoying. I get tired of hearing about how much of a humanitarian she is. Get over yourself Angelina.

Truly unique beauty that can be very hot, depending on how she is made up.  I love her as Laura Croft in Tomb Raider and have heard she may play Catwoman in an upcoming Batman series movie which is a part MADE for her.  Still, she's got all those tatoos, wrecked Brad Pitt's and Jennifer Anniston's marriage, and runs around doing weird things like adopting strange kids from around the world and having kids of her own.  I hear her former husband, Billy Bob Thornton, thinks she is a beeyatch so I believe there are some attitude issues there.   She keeps adding layer upon layer of complexity to her life and I do wonder if she -- as with any Hollywood married person -- can keep her marriage going or if we may one day see her in Splitsville with Brad Pitt.  She's controversial but still, smokin' hot as long as she keeps up her looks.

What is so great about her?  She can't act and she's a homewrecker- what else do I need to say?

One of my favorite actresses... just love her!

LOVE HERR

Bangin body but from the neck up she looks likes shes from mars, and if her attitudes like the one inher movies i couldent take it.

Jolie has received wide recognition for her humanitarian work.

ID STILL HIT IT

She is so beautiful!

OMG

I would have to agree with Limpin' Trenchfoot on this one. I haven't seen her in too much because what I have seen in her hasn't exactly been stellar. I hate to focus on looks, but, let's face it, that's the coin of the realm in Hollywood these days, and Angelina's are strange, in my opinion. Certainly not ugly, but with that oversized head and pillow lips, she looks...strange. Unfortunately, this is where we are as a culture these days in America. Instead of Bogart and Bacall, we've got Pitt and Jolie. Instead of Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison, we've got Justin Timberlake and Bon Jovi. Instead of Lenny Bruce and George Carlin, we've got Carrot-top. Instead of Edward R. Murrow, we've got Katie Couric. Instead of Roosevelt, we've got Dubya. I could go on and on, but it's early in the day yet, and why depress myself more than I have to?

One of the most overrated Hollywood stars ever. Lookswise she doesnt light my candle thanks to the overinflated lips and all those tatts but in an age where most A listers are pretty ordinary looking I guess she stands out...slightly. Viz acting  her resume isnt particularly impressive with quite a lot of straight to DVD efforts and braindead blockbusters like Mr and Mrs Smith, Alexander, Tombraider.

mmmmmm.

not so much

Looks like a man.

And not in a good way.

My future wife

FINE

ggggg

i love her!!!

She is ok.

Hell yes!

She's pretty good.

She is my favorite actress ever!!!!

Love her!!!

Angelina is a very good actress I enjoy her performances and hope to see more of her in the future

nut job

kinda hot....

Overrated weirdo. IMO

Great in Girl, Interruped

sexy and she has my man lol BRAD PITT oooh yea

I used to think she was a good actress, but over the years she's convinced me otherwise...she's just drama- and not the good kind. More like the "crazy-blood exchanging-brother kissing-homewrecker" kind

KMT ur not the sexiest woman in the world, I Know many sexier womenz :P

angelina is amazing

She isn't a bad actress but she drives me a little crazy with her dominating the media.

Good in Mr. and Mrs. Smith
Otherwise, overhyped

Love her, she'll leave a great impression - great or misunderstood.

not bad, but not great either..

I can't think of anyone hotter. She's my fav.

Talentless. She's nothing special when it comes to acting, she should of sticked to modeling.

Such Big lips...EWWW

She was awesome in Mr. and Mrs. Smith, awesome movie!  She is very beautiful, and probably the only woman who I would turn gay for.

She scares me!!!

A terrific actress and perhaps the most beautiful woman who ever lived.

love her charitable contributions

Don't like Jolie, Over Rated, FAKE!!!!
