Rather good

Rating: Null/10 (16 February 2004)

Theron did a good job playing the role of a broken and confused soul desperately trying to find a reason to live in another, and Christina Ricci plays a rather subtle introverted lesbian kid trying to find acceptance in a puzzle-like world she perceives beyond her. Storyline is mostly slack free but do get syrupy/message-oriented on occasion - if you like that then fine.
Finally, for playing the broken messed up women role, my present favorite is still Emily Watson in "Breaking the Waves", but that's a whole different story.
