Great acting.Objectionable content.

Rating: 7/10 (15 February 2005)

I knew before viewing this film that I would find the majority of the content objectionable,so I was not surprised in that regard.What drew me to the film was the obvious pouring of heart and soul by Charlize Theron into this project that was evident in previews and interviews.Theron's portrayal of this tortured soul is nothing short of dead on.It is worth viewing for this fact alone.Theron was so immersed in character that she is purely non recognizable.You almost forget that this isn't the real Aileen Wuornos you are seeing.Though Theron might have been able to carry the film on her own,she is offered great support by Christina Ricci and the always credible Bruce Dern.It's a good film,not so much through content,but through the performance of the cast.
