Rating: 3.5/4 -- Theron keeps the proceedings on track. Her fierce, hauntingly vulnerable, Academy Award-winning performance shows us who Aileen Wuornos really was. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/5 -- As impressive as [Charlize Theron's] transformation is, it's likely to spawn more discussions about acting than about the topic at hand. Full Review

Rating: 4/4 -- By "Monster's" end, nothingness replaces Aileen Wuornos' ferocity - evidence of exhaustive efforts from Patty Jenkins and Oscar-winner Charlize Theron to emphasize this serial killer's fraying sanity, not her crimes' sensationalism. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Beautiful young journalist Nora (Miroslava) gets a very cool job: she must interview the mysterious Dr. Ling (Linares Riva). She gets the shock of her life when she finds out that the brilliant scientist actually is a deranged and misshaped madman who is instantly obsessed by her beauty. Refused by Nora, Ling loses all control on what little sanity he's got left. So he resuscitates a handsome young man by transplanting a new brain in the corpse and orders the zombie to kidnap Nora. But not even an undead man can resist Nora's beauty and the love-lorn zombie falls desperately in love with the girl. Their ungodly romance, though, is doomed to come to a bloody halt.
