Dissapointed. Very slow, dialogue poor. I could have walked out half way through no problem. Lots of yawning. Too many closeups of Theron, trying to prove a point.Just another docu-drama.
man. charlize theron did an excellent job and everything, but the facts of this movie arn`t exactly what went down in real life. She never was violently beatenand rapped by any of her Jon`s...and without that in the movie, we would have thought of her as someone bad, instead of feeling pity for her, and almost cheering her on. It sucks non of the victims perspectives, or families there-of were considered while making the movie.. BUT NONE THE LESS It was really good.. really good.
This film was fabulous, it put the audience in the life of a woman who was desperate to sustain a relationship with the one love in her life. Touching but very disturbing in some scenes. I would reccomend this movie, but not to anyone under 18.
Charlize Theron acted really well and she deserves an award. Very thrilling with her manly acting. Well done
..this movie is NOT about a real monster ..LOL!! it`s one of those movies that you just sit there and go..`OH MY GOD I can`t believe this actually happened` not a funny type movie..but definatley worth seeing. I agree that maybe it shouldn`t have been a motion pic but whatever..Absolutley Phenominal..a must see. I still cannot believe that, that was Charlize Theron until I read about it, I was like WHA! her transformation is disturbingly very well done, its shocking. I wanna see it again!
This movie should get an Oscar for best use of the Journey song, "Don`t Stop Believin`".
Thank you for a thoughtful, mature, superbly acted film. The subject matter could have tempted less talented directors and actors to exploit. A perfect movie. Well done!!
Great acting,Charlize theron and Christine Ricci did a great job, but the movie itself could have been a direct to video release
Incredible acting and interesting story! Some time lines and more non-fictional subtitling (before and after the movie) would have been helpful...otherwise...very thought-provoking!
I think the acting was amazing, but the story was not as good as I hoped. I don`t think it should have been made into a motion picture, it maybe would have been better as a made for tv movie.
