Back then, everybody was floored by Charlize Theron who had a solid career so far but thanks to this movie, she definitely reached another level.

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. Monster traces her relationship with a young woman named Selby (Christina Ricci, The Ice Storm, Buffalo 66), which intertwines with Wuornos's murder spree. This remarkable movie finds compassion for Wuornos but unflinchingly faces her brutal crimes; Theron expresses this woman's horrific life history without sof ... (more)

" I remember seeing Charlize Theron for the first time in a semi-indie thriller called 2 Days in the Valley. In that Tarantino copycat anthologically constructed story, she plays the role of a femme fatale who gets into a cat fight with a super sexy simmerin' Teri Hatcher. And I gotta admit, it was truly one of the hottest scenes I've ever watched outside of any of the multitude of video options provided from PornHub. In this movie, she plays the role of a female fatale of a much different"
