Powerful Drama

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2004)

"Monster" is a very draining drama, and it is a pleasant surprise to see such an honest portrayal of a very delicate subject. Charlize Theron take the honors for the female performance of the year. She gives a compelling portrayal of a mistreated prostitute with crime winding through the background. This is another must see film for this year's oscars.
