Charlize Theron's big performance

Rating: 6/10 (23 October 2004)

Charlize Theron did here a great job and it was no question worth an Oscar. Every scene was well studied and executed and this true story came to a dramatic showdown. This movie could be very helpful for many prostitutes showing them the possible dangers of their job. It's a must see for Charlize Theron's big performance but also for Christina Ricci's very respectable role. Christina Ricci was very believable too as her girlfriend. I watched it in first line only for the characters and in second line less for the story. I can highly recommend it for all film fans who appreciate serious acting and who love true stories. You cannot expect too much action but therefore lot of dramatic moments. 6.5/10.
