Critic Reviews of "Monsters Ball"
Minneapolis Star TribuneNovember 06, 2002It's not a polemic on the death penalty, race relations or family dynamics. It's a character study that really sticks with you.
Chicago TribuneJuly 20, 2002A serious movie made by seriously talented people, and I never quite came 'round to it.
Arizona RepublicMarch 04, 2002A textbook example of fearless filmmaking, exhibiting a brand of gritty realism that's hard to watch but impossible to ignore.
Washington PostFebruary 16, 2002[Forster] tells his story with directness and simplicity and without the high hallmarks of the soaps' gooey emotional lubrication.
ReelViewsFebruary 10, 2002A powerful and poignant motion picture not about racism and redemption, as one might initially suppose, but about one of the most urgent and universal of human needs -- that of finding solace for pain and loneliness.
Seattle TimesFebruary 08, 2002Though the film can initially seem off-putting, Monster's Ball slowly and quietly gets under your skin.
Common Sense MediaDecember 26, 2010This brutal movie is for adults only.
EmanuelLevy.ComDecember 25, 2006Though marred by script that telegraphs its messages, this drama still manages to tell a compelling love story betweenn a redneck guard and a black widow, well played by Billy Bob Thronton and particularly Halle Berre, who should get Oscar nomination
Looking CloserDecember 06, 2004Forster makes us too intimate with these characters. But, heavy-handed and derivative as it is, its lead actors strike some resonant chords....
Empire MagazineMarch 02, 2003Forster's poised direction, as well as powerful turns from Billy Bob Thornton and the Oscar-winning Halle Berry, make this compelling viewing.
Cinema SightJanuary 29, 2003Halle Berry turns in an amazing performance.
