****SPOILER ALERT*** BLACK SWAN

OH MY GOSH WHAT ON EARTH WAS I THINKING!!! My best friend and I decided to go out last night for the first time since the summer and enjoy a nice movie about a lovely ballerina I mean what else could it have been about based on the beautiful commercials I'd seen just a few weeks prior. I thought it'd be nice to sit down and relax at the theater...have some laughs...eat my smuggled in hamentashen in peace. I'm glad I ate it early because if I'd waited my appetite would have been gone.  To me Black Swan was an amateur horror/porno flick...Every time Natalie Portman (Nina) is on screen if we're not caught up in one of her scary delusions of blood and death everywhere we're caught up in her arrested development issues. First off why is she still living with her mother in her childhood room surrounded by all this stuff five year olds would love but any normal girl after reaching puberty would stash away in her deepest closet. The poor toys in her bedroom witness her bad habit of scratching her self and breaking skin to bring more blood to the picture and the disgusting scenes of serious "self lovin". All fingers and screams of arousal aside this girl then goes on to have a relationship with her ballet instructor...after she told him off in the beginning of the movie and bit his lip to stop him from kissing her I was rooting for her all the way, she even told Beth the "older" ballerina she's replacing that she doesn't have to be a whore to get ahead.....SIKE...she basically transforms from good girl to whore within the next ten to twenty minutes of the movie...allowing this (while attractive) still pretty old dude to put his hands all over her private squares! MY GAWD!She then proceeds to get harrassed by a 80 year old guy on the subway and pretends she was disgusted...she didn't fool me one bit! Then all her strange lesbian encounters....dreams?.....encounters?... I have no idea what really happened what was imagined what was real. and mommy dearest is just as evil as they come buying a cake she knows her bulimic daughter will regurgitate up at the next available toilet bowl and continuing the not so normal after age 6 dressing and undressing of her daughter and playing Sherlock Holmes with her body inspecting her for self inflicted scratches.  and sweet samurai warrior here comes another crazy moment when she has the fight in the dressing rooms leaving behind a puddle of blood and broken glass...we all just knew she finally killed of her nemesis Lilly with a shard of glass. a simple knock on the door blew our minds when Lilly came to Nina's dressing room to tell her she did an awesome job in the last act...wait isn't she dead??? No of course she isn't....this idiot had a fight with herself and stabbed a long piece of mirror glass into her own abdomen and she dies! but not before she gives a rockin performance and lands on her deathbed/mattress and whispers her last words....Perfect...yeah she finally reached perfection...lucky for us the screen then blanks out and it's time for the credits...leaving the audience slightly jumpy and equally as disgusted...thanx alot Black Swan...thanx alot.

  1. 1. ITA, Vincent Cassel was flippin' hot. I don't care how old he is. BTW he was in one of the Ocean's movies and can I just say, he is just as beautiful.

    2.Seriously, I'm determined to find out the first 10 minutes of the movie. I feel jipped!! Those commercials were lies, I was totally expecting a story of a beautiful dancer, not some frigid schizophrenic.

  2. I totally agree she def had some serious mental problems that her mother should have addressed at a young age by taking her to a doctor or a hospital for the mentally ill. It's clear however that her mother also has some sort of mental illness so idk what to even say about that. I looked up a review since we missed the first ten minutes of the movie and I don't think we missed very much there is no explanation for anything.
