Monster


I finished Monster today and I'll be honest. I'm not that impressed. Am I too critical, not getting the point or what? It kept my interest long enough to read it, but it didn't move me or make me think at all. In fact, the movie script format was extremely distracting and seemed to me like a desperate attempt to be original and win awards. In the end, is the point that he WAS involved but got away, or that he was innocent? Should I be relieved he wasn't sent to prison? I wasn't. I didn't care. Maybe I'm just having a cynical weekend because there are strangers walking around upstairs and I can't watch TV because there's some kid asleep on it. I'm going out.
