Also... you absolutely picked the perfect day to post your reaction for Angel Eyes, because today is Jim Caviezel’s birthday!! September 26th! I love watching movies and shows with the actors I love on their birthdays, as my own way of celebrating the people I respect and even admire. People like Jim Caviezel, whom I admire very much. Not just as actor, but as a person too. Jim Caviezel is a good man, with strong morals and integrity. And they show in every role that he plays, even when he is playing the villain or antagonist within a movie or show too, which is pretty impressive. He is very religious, thanks to his family’s upbringing. This is all why Jim Caviezel was the perfect choice to play Jesus in The Passion of the Christ. So thank you!! Sincerely, Heidi

I know this isn't the kind of movie you were expecting, and not so much the kind of movie you normally watch without any kind of prompting to do so. Nonetheless... I am grateful to you for watching it for me, and I am happy you enjoyed it too. :) Jim Caviezel is phenomenal in this movie as Catch, or Steven Lambert. Jim is just always phenomenal, like he is for me in every role I've ever seen him in. The way he is able to always play such broken, and guilt ridden characters especially... always gets to me every time. I love him in Person of Interest, as well as in The Count of Monte Cristo and in Frequency, where he plays broken characters who fight to break free from their pain and to help save those he cares about most. And I love him here in Angel Eyes as Catch, who is deeply broken until he is saved himself by a woman with angel eyes. And I love Catch as a character. I love the mystery behind who he is, and learning more and more about him as the movie continues on. But I love how the loss of his wife and son caused him to shut down and lose all memory of that one minute of his life where everything sadly changed for him, while his own pain and guilt consumed him and failed to allow him to move on. His overarching story is quite beautiful and heartbreaking. Oh... and I love seeing Catch playing Nature Boy on the trumpet... a song I love very much. The scene between him and Sharon inside the jazz club is quite a powerful moment. I really do wish we could have gotten to see a moment in the end between Catch and his old friend who came up to him at the club to welcome him back, so that we could have seen that maybe Catch was welcomed back to play there for his friend again, like he appeared to do before the accident. That would have been really nice. Next... Jennifer Lopez plays Sharon, a woman who is most definitely broken as well, because she is always struggling to find hope and joy in her life after growing up in an abusive and crushing environment due to her father beating her mother and brother, who always took the brunt end of his abuse in order to keep her safe. I love the relationship between Sharon and her partners, as well as with the other cops. And I love how they're always there for her, especially when her own family aren't. Now... I've never cared all that much for Jennifer Lopez as a musician/singer. There really aren't too many of her songs that I care for and I've always thought that she is far too Hollywoodized, or made into such a big deal. She's far too overhyped in my opinion. But I have enjoyed her in some of her movies. I like her a lot in a few of her romantic comedies such as The Wedding Planner and Maid in Manhattan. I love her in Selena as well. I haven't ever seen The Cell, mostly because I've heard very bizarre things about this movie. However, I will have to check it out now that you've recommended it. But all in all... I definitely prefer Jennifer Lopez as an actress, far more than I like her as a singer. And I really love her in Angel Eyes especially. I think her character in this movie is special, and someone who a number of this movie's viewers can relate to. The pain she and Catch struggle with throughout this movie is powerful, and they both suffer in ways that quite a number of us all struggle with too. Which is a big reason why I love Angel Eyes so much. Because the pain and emotions is all very real and their struggles, then being able to see them overcome them... absolutely powerful and so beautiful. And lastly... I really love the very first moment Catch and Sharon come together, when Catch saves Sharon from being killed by one of the street thugs who had just shot up the cop diner where she and her partners had all been enjoying a little downtime together before all hell broke loose. The moment Catch's and Sharon's eyes meet... wow! So powerful, and while they don't really know one another, you can see the sense of recognition and the connection between them both in their eyes. I absolutely love this moment between them. Just as I love the moment between Catch and Sharon in the very ending as well, upon seeing just how much they've both helped one another break through their pain. So wonderful. Thank you once again for your reaction, Clint! I truly enjoyed watching Angel Eyes again with you, and I appreciate your willingness to continue watching these movies with me. I look forward to many more reactions for both movies, as well as shows to come! Thank you! Sincerely, Heidi
