I think Charlize Theron is georgious... Should I go ahead and watch
Edited on Sat Dec-18-04 08:04 PM by Tom Yossarian Joad
Monster in twenty minutes from now?

Will it destroy my fantasy that she instilled in her earlier films?

Is my shallowness showing tonight?

1. She's not very attractive in that movie
but it's still a very dark, compelling and disturbing movie that I enjoyed. I strongly recommend it. Plus, the lesbian sex scene with Christina Ricci makes it totally worth it.

2. Decent movie. Kind of overrated, I thought.
But I liked how no one looked like a movie star sex goddess in it.

God forbid movies have what looks like real people, instead of made-up Barbie dolls.

Of course, Christina Ricci is pretty hot in it.

3. The movie will force you to focus more on the fact that she's an
excellent actress, and less on her looks.

4. Don't tell anyone, but I was being a bit facetous...
I'm looking forward to seeing it.

IMHO, talent over looks any day.

5. I thought her performance was overrated.
I thought Naomi Watts should have been a lock for '21 Grams' as she should have been a lock for 'Mulholland Drive'(She wasn't even nominated that year). I thought that Charlize Theron's performance was so over-done to the point that it seemed like parody. I know that Aileen Wurnos was like that, but I thought Theron's performance was nothing but weight-gain, make-up and screaming.

6. I recently watched the HBO special with Wurnos's interviews...
It will be interesting to see Theron's interpretation.

Until then, I guess I can't say anything one way or the other.

7. See it!!! You'll then think she's a gorgeous genius. Well worth it.
