Unmissable

Rating: 10/10 (10 July 2007)

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It was a refreshing change from the typical teen serial killer movies - this was real life. Theron done an amazing job as Aileen, she changed her whole appearance, her posture, her voice, everything that could be changed. She definitely deserved that Oscar.
The creators of the movie done a brilliant job at exploring Aileen's life and the killings. My only gripe with the film is that Christina Ricci's character, Selby, looks a tad too young to play her lesbian lover and her naivety reminds me of the kids/teen films she started off in, such as Casper.
Apart from that, Monster is possibly one of the best films in the past decade. Shocking, moving, traumatising are just some of the words I'd use to describe Monster. Don't miss it.
