Couldn't agree more. She doesn't have any of the grace or style that Theron showed in this movie.

True, aeon was tall and skinny and flexible. Point though was that michelle up there has those intense eyes, thats what aeon needs, the intensity, the darkness. charlize cant fake that, she is too much of a girly girl model type. Simply dying her hair black doesnt do it.
Dude, all Michelle Rodriguez does is sneer. That's it, she's completely one-dimensional. At least, she's been cast that way.

yea but its her facial structure the shape of the eye brows, she just has the ability to look like a bad ass when she wants to.

But she still doesn't have anywhere near the body type for the part.

Another :icon14: from me.

Theron did a great job. The weak point of the movie was that the cinematography was really lacking, in my opinion. They could've brought much more of the feel from the series with how it was filmed. Lots of macro, long periods of silence, wacky camera angles, etc. If more time was spent on those details, this would probably be the best I've seen this year. As it stands, I still enjoyed it throughly. Great plot, great acting, and lots of good face/knee/stomach-kicking/punching/biting.
