Monsters Ball

Watched this load of dross @ the weekend.

Don't waste your money on it.

You do get to see her semi-naked which is one of the films selling points I believe, but it is near the end & you will be either asleep or will have just killed yourself.

No story
No speed
Lots of nothing

The worst film I have seen.

Somebody needs to have a word with the Oscar people as well !

Like I say my taste is quite varied - but this does not include MB!

I thought it was quite good. Some of the characters behaviour didn't ring true but I found Billy Bob Thornton's role quite intriguing.
Reminded me a bit of a John Sayles film.
