Exceptional!

You would find it hard to believe the woman you were seeing was Charlize Theron. The film is a bleak look at the period of time in the life of the first Serial Killer in the USA when she was in love with a woman. The film, unsurprisingly, won numerous awards and both Ricci and Theron are in top form. Don't rent this for a laugh, its a deeply dark film, based on a true story, of a woman who came from a life of hell, and then fell right back there again. A Brilliant film.

Worth a watch

Not bad, entertaining in parts with two strong lead rolls from Theron and Ricci. Felt like it was going to be good bless the unfortunate serial killer, that poor girl but as it turned out it wasnt really sugarcoated by Hollywood standards.

Very Good.

Didn't know who Theron really was when I saw this but knew the story of Aileen Wuornos and found this film very accurate and almost like a documentary. The likeness of Theron to Wuornos is freaky! I have to admit to thinking that Wuornos told the truth about what happened to her and I have to say had I been on the jury I'd not have found her guilty. She was in a man's world and was looked upon as trash and not seen as the victim she actually was from the day she was born. I seriously cried.

Fantastic

Is that really Theron I had to check a few times she delivers quite possibly the performance of her career in this movie, it can be a little slow at times but it is so worth a watch just to see Theron deliver a master class.

An enjoyable film. Charlize Theron is unrecognisable, very well done and the fact that it is based on true facts makes it more amazing.
