Do you recall how good The Dark Knight was...with Heath Ledger's Joker? That level of rare disturbingly-wondrous performance is, this year, Mo'Nique in Precious. The film has a well written script, fine acting, and good pacing—however—Mo'Nique's performance, as the noxiously vile woman who gave birth to Precious, is beyond amazing and turns an otherwise good film into a fantastic one.
Sanitized violence in movies has been accepted for years. What seems to upset everybody now is the showing of the consequences of violence. — Stanley Kubrick
