Weekend movies

I saw Push and Changeling yesterday.

Push was pretty awful: overly stylized and mostly pointless. I actually dozed off in the theater.

Changeling went places I didn't anticipate, but considering it stars Angelina Jolie in an Oscar-nominated role, I should have expected something more than a simple "mother searches for lost child" flick. Definitely worth a watch... it will push all of your "power corrupts" buttons (and hopefully get you to become a card-carrying ACLU member if you're not already).

AND IF YOU'RE CURIOUS, here are the Oscar predictions from FiveThirtyEight's software model.
