Monsters Ball - BLURAY

I am a big fan of Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton so I purchase a Blu-ray copy of the movie. In the story, both of them lost their love ones in different times. Two lonely hearts used to live different lives crossed their paths accidentally. Then they started understanding each other and fell in love. In the time illustrated in the story, it was rarely seen for such a relationship over different races. It was very challenging for them to work it out. They finally got together which was an happy ending. However, it also left an opening that their relationship would face a great deal of challenges because of their races. I enjoyed the movie very much. Read more

One of HalleBerry's best movies. Read more

First I would like to say, "Yes I've had a infatuation for Halle Berry!", but I still give a true review. Monster's Ball was far most life like film that has a true capturing Ahavah of turning hate into love. From a prejudice individual to honoring the beauty of a gorgeous woman. There was much heart-felt sentiment in this film from a mother struggling as a single parent, a son being hated by the father, the father trained in the ways of being a redneck, a mother struggling in poverty, and much more. The film is definitely unrated in sexual matters but being honest that what many of us adults like about the movie but the connection of the sexual matters did give more so amorous and sensual type of love making with a little rough lovemaking, spiced with one of the most gorgeous women in the world Halle Berry. I also love the way Halle was more so virtuous in the film and embraced her intimate hairs in the film. The portion of Billy playing the prejudice individual was more realistic and well acted. Honestly the film was excellent! The film given a more public figure of inspiration on how to treat a gorgeous woman (basically, as treasure, devotion, sensual with a little ice cream on the side).

This movie was incredible for the first 45 minutes. The relationship dynamics of Billy Bob Thorton's character with his father and son...as well as Halle Berry's relationship with her son...all set to the backdrop of a death row inmate's electrocution. It was truly spectacular. Unfortunately, the second half of the movie wasn't equal to the beginning...it's almost as if they were trying to hold the film together by resorting to showcasing a very racy sex scene between Halle and Billy Bob. Their actions simply weren't believable. Suddenly, Billy Bob isn't racist? And Halle doesn't care that she's sleeping with the guy who essentially killed her husband? Seemed a little far-fetched. If I'm being totally honest, I didn't see anything spectacular with the acting either. Is it worth watching? Yes. Is it Academy Award worthy? No. Will you find yourself rolling your eyes occasionally? Probably. 2.5 stars Read more

Great movie just plays in Blu-ray Read more

A rare gem that Hollywood has produced. It has a great cast and good storyline. It is not an easy flick to watch on a saturday afternoon. It has lots of emotion. Billy Bob Thornton played a prison officer with a sour relationship with his son. (Played by Heath Ledger) Heath shoot himself in front of his Dad in the first forty minutes which it is a bit of a waste that his screen time was too little. Halle Berry played wife of the death row prisoner and mother of a kid. Both Billy and Halle deveopled into a relationship after Billy help to send her son to hospital after an accident. You can see Billy changing from a cold hearted person to more human after the relationship started. It is a heart warming movie and do not be surprise that tears may come out of your eyes automatically. Read more
