Sadly Over-hyped
How sad is this?
Fresh and Exciting
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
I just don't know what to say about this film, I was waiting for the movie to live up to it's rating and my expectations but anyway. I just want to know 1 thing, why so much high rating and hype of this movie ?
Lesbian sex is the only good thing about this movie. Everything else is crap. They have destroyed the image of Ballet Dancer across the globe. Even though no one gives a rat ass to any Dancer in particular. But, it's being too harsh on them. This movie was not entertaining at all.
I really enjoyed this movie it is the first of Aromofsky's films that I have seen and it was near perfect. The score and cinematography is perfect using many tracking shots. I really liked the sparing use of color since most of this movie is black and white. The one gripe I have with this film is Natalie Portman's preformance which is just all right up until about the last twenty minutes where she really starts to come into her own I did really like a lot of the preformances surrounding hers such as Winona Rider, Vincent Cassel, Barabara Hershey and Kseina Solo. My belief in the transformation of Nina Sayers from innocence to insanity is still beleivavle to me despite Portman's preformance because of the amazing diecting and visuals. All in all Black Swan is a thrill that I would recomend to anyone looking for something different.
The struggle of a person within the struggle of an artist, well captured and with a perfect narrating rhythm that keeps you suffering. All with the exquisite an interesting background that entails the backstage of a ballet production and an amazing soundtrack.
