Unique humanitarian tell of a serial killer's life.

Rating: 9/10 (6 October 2014)

First time in my life, I felt sorry for a serial killer. Charlize Theron was astonishing as Aileen Wuornos, it was one of the greatest performances I've seen in years. Movies are a form of storytelling and this is a unique humanitarian way of telling story, of a notorious serial killer's life. Hats off to Patty Jenkins. Usually I like to watch serial killer movies which are made from the cop's point of view. Because I don't have any interest on how they become a monster, I don't like to travel their sick complex mind. Monster (2003) was an exception to that and what an exception, it was! The Aileen Wuornos's capture scenario could have been better. I've seen a couple of documentaries based on Aileen Wuornos real life. It was literary a tough-tense state of affairs for the police who caught her. Because she was angry, hopeless, broken and a ruthless killer. I guess the film misses this part's excitement. Anyway, for me, it is a recommended movie for all movie lovers of this genre.
