What is with the horrible screaming and crying?!

I think this chick is so bizarre. What the hell is up with her constant screaming and running around with her arms flailing and the embarrasing faces. She even did it in Alpha Dog. In The Smokers it was super bad. And she overacts something terrible. I think she ruins a movie. Its as if everything is a SNL skit. She even does it on purpose in that 80's VH1 thing, however, she always does it which makes it even more funny. I really liked Girl and I found her bad acting such a distraction. So many more actresses out there better than her. I had to come and see if anyone else thought the same. Sorry for her fans, just my humble opinion.

You notice the only two people complaining are chicks? There is a reason casting directors hire her, it's because of those, some people like, some don't. People make weird faces when they cry. But to each his/her own.

I'm watching Totally Awesome right now and in this it works because it's the stereotypical teenager from the 80's. I like her in this but I'm about to rent Alpha Dog. Guess I'll see...

I'm not complaining, I am stating a fact. Dominique has no real talent. She is still riding on the coat tails of Lolita, her only decent work. Certainly you can see the difference between her and Julia Roberts, Selma Hyack, Meryl Streep, or even Angelina J.

You're not 'stating a fact' you're voicing an opinion. There's a very large difference between the two.
