A very good movie

I like a serial killer movie from time to time but there are never among my favorite movies (for example, I think that The Silence of the Lambs and Seven are rather overrated). However, there are exceptions... This movie is one of them. It is a really chilling story without chases, explosions or big shootings. It really focuses on the main character and it is rather fascinating. Theron really dese... read more

The performance's in this film delivered by Charlize Theron and Christina Ricci are nothing short of amazing. Theron goes under a dramatic transformation to become Aileen Wuornos. The beautiful starlet is hardly recognizable. I don't want to give any spoilers. But I can say without hesitation, watch this film.

Description: Critics have universally praised Charlize Theron's performance in Monster, and the praise, for once, is astonishingly deserved. The gorgeous star of The Italian Job and The Cider House Rules vanishes into the character of Aileen Wuornos, a real-life serial killer and prostitute who murdered at least seven men in Florida.

"12/06/2013 Charlize Theron on melkein tunnistamattomassa kunnossa prostituoituna likaisimmalla tiellä. Kielletty rakkaustarina on nyt kompelkseineen ihan kelvollinen ja roolisuoritukset Theronilta ja Ricciltä ovat enemmän tai vähemmän samaa luokkaa. Väkivalta on ahdistavaa ja motiiveiltaan vammaisena hyvin kipeää."

"Watched: 29.3. Tämän elokuvan näkeminen kiehtoi, koska Aileen Wuornos on kiinnostava aihe ja Theronin Oscar-pysti herätti epäuskoa ja, no, itseasiassa tällä kertaa kävi niin, että haukuin turhaan elokuva-akatemiaa pystin antamisesta. Mutta siitä edespäin, oikein onnistunut koskettava trilleri, joka pitää tunnelmassaan loppuun saakka. Kuten mainitsin Theronin aiemmin, hävettää oikeastaan, että olen niin paljon ilmaissut kantaani häneen negatiivisesti, kuten sanalla 'lahjaton'. "

" By this time I'd forgotten anything I might have heard about Monster when it came out 10 years ago. All I really knew going into it was that it was a "heavier" film and that it featured Charlize Theron in a character that required true transformation. What I did not know about Monster is that it is, A: based on real people and real events and, B: that it is a complete and total fucking downer of a movie. Monster really is about as grim as well-known English-language movies get. In fact, I'm "

"Charlize Theron as Aileen Wuornos (an American serial killer who killed seven men in Florida between 1989 and 1990, claiming they raped or attempted to rape her while she was working as a prostitute. She was convicted and sentenced to death for six of the murders and executed by lethal injection on October 9, 2002) "

"Having watched a documentary about Aileen I felt weird watching the movie. As I knew she didn't want it made, I felt uncomfortable watching it."
