I thought this movie was amazing. Great detail with the inclusion of symbols and themes. Would have to see it a few more times to fully enjoy the brilliant nature of the writing and acting

A compelling film that defies easy classification. It is a retelling of Swan Lake, a psychological thriller in the vein of Polanski's Repulsion, a tale of sexual awakening, and a portrait of an artist's passion, among other descriptions. Black Swan is seamlessly shot and choreographed, and reminds those of us tired of excessive CGI effects and mindless 3D conversions why a trip to the cinema can be as worthwhile as a visit to a gallery or museum. This is the kind of film that makes me want to enroll in a Film Studies program to further explore its meanings and cement its place in the canon of contemporary cinema.

Dramatic and very artistic! The best movie Portman has ever done by far@! The role was made for her! It is dark and intense. Anyone who loves dance or the theater will love this movie!
