Black Swan was a superb flick. I was possessed by the images, the torture and power of self doubt and ability. Many folks didn't get it, but I did, the life of a perfectionist, coupled with the internal darkness took a life of its own.
Although it's been weeks since I seen this, I thought I'll give you my quick, vague review.
- Natalie Portman was stunning as Nina, the tortured perfectionist dancer, who wants the lead role of the Swan Princess.
- The music and feel of the movie fits perfectly to the story.
- Nina's mind was eerie as she struggled to discover herself; it's epic to watch her slowly crack.
- Mila Kunis was very good as the 'bad girl'.
- Winona Ryder's role spoke in volumes.
- The creation of the Black Swan was a slow hot burn, applaud this style of storytelling.
- Watching Barbara Hershey as the mother was grand. She played this role to the T.
- The pace of the movie was nice, not too slow or too fast.
- The transformation dance scene was priceless.
- This was a creative person's movie. Many folks didn't get it, but if you read comics or like psycho-thrillers, this is your movie.
- This was one of the best movie of the year.
