I just saw the movie "Monster" for the first time

(yes, I know I'm behind)

I'd never seen Charlize Theron in anything before, and I had her pegged as just another cookie-cutter Barbie Doll actress, but she absolutely blew me away in that movie. I've seen documentaries about Aileen Wuornos and Theron had her pegged

1. I was stunned....

I expected Hollywood fluff and she blew me away. That performance was absolutely chilling and one of the best movies I've seen in a while.

2. when i watched that i never once thought of Charlize Theron, she

disappeared into that role. I thought it was excellent but i don't want to see it again.

3. I Was Impressed with Her Performance Too

Unfortunately, I fell asleep before the end. I remember the part where she was trying to find a job, getting progressively frustrated & needy with Christina Ricci's character, but I faded out after that.
