Monster's Ball


Rating = B

There is some good acting in this movie, and the director doesn't force things as two people who have led confused lives and have now suffered great loss gradually drift together and become better people. The ending is nicely ambiguous (I think they will stay together). However, I don't think the script provides sufficient motivation for the character turn-arounds, at least not that of the leading man character.
