Tragic but Brilliant

Rating: 9/10 (13 April 2006)

This movie is one of the most intense movies I have ever seen, they made Charlize Theron look so much like Aileen Wuornos that it's almost scary. I wonder if this is happening to another women even as I type this? This movie deserved all the Oscars it won because this movie is brilliant, tragic, and will be intense if you see it. Christina Ricci also did a great job playing Selby, who just wanted love, but then it turned into all this life of crime, running, and fear.
In the end, when Selby testified against Aileen, that was the turning point of the movie, even though that was the end of the movie, Aileen realized what mistakes she had made. But it was already too late, Aileen was sentenced to death...but she was still a cold-blooded killer, but it was all in her head. Charlize did a wonderful job playing that sad and lonely prostitute who just wanted a real life, then one night, she gets raped by a man and that was the end of it. Her killing spree began....This movie is a must-see, but warning to you, it is intense and has very pervasive language, NOT for little kids.
I gave this movie and 9/10.
