Aileen Wuornos: American Boogeywoman

This is one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time! Would have been mad if I'd paid for it. Seriously bad overacting with an equally bad script. Tobin Bell was good as the Commodore. This movie does portray Wuornos as a smart and witty woman who had incredibly crappy social skills combined with a hair trigger temper, and then it digresses into a bizarre combination of soap opera and a bad noir movie.

This cannot be near the truth, but "based on", so watch it that way. When you want bubble gum for the brain or need background noise - this is the movie for you!

Just before her execution, Aileen Wuornos told Nick Broomfield, the British film maker who documented her life with hundreds of hours of tape and believed she was so mentally ill that the State of Florida was killing a child that, ºThey will all make money on me when I'm gone."

This film is proof. It's a disgusting exploitation of the life of a woman who suffered through a childhood that would make Dickens weep. It does nothing to elevate the lives of the men she killed nor does it show the way Wuornos herself was failed by child welfare services and her defense attorney.

Too soon, folks. Too soon. The earnest young actress tries to save it. But too soon.

Skip it. Watch "Monster," or Brookfield's outstanding "Aileen Wuornos: The Selling of a Serial Killer,"

Because the truth wasn't bad enough they had to fabricate large parts of the story? Whoever made this apparently flunked out of film school. The writing, acting and cinematography are terrible.

Peyton List is a beautiful young actress who was really good in the Kobra Kai series. Hopefully this movie will become known as the low point in her budding career, cause she can only go up from this disaster. Hope to see much more of her in the future.

Love you, Peyton ---- but I'm really embarrassed for you.

Absolutely great acting at the beginning by penny wise's sister and then it all went downhill from there. Its like a really really bad poison ivy and for anyone who hasn't seen poison ivy it's not good yet it's Oscar material compared to this.
