Black Swan Movie Reviews

She may have lost 20 pounds for the role and look intensely fragile, but Natalie Portman is a towering inferno as Nina, the pretty and paranoid ballerina who storms the New York stage like never before. And it isn't the stage alone that becomes a playground for her stormy passions. Backstage too becomes a battleground where illusion and reality blend in horrific measure to create a dark and terrifying concoction of human emotions

The proof of director Darren Aronofsky's skill and mastery of the moving picture format was visible right from his debut film Pi. As far as global audiences were concerned though, the man has toiled in relative obscurity since his debut in 1999. Until now. Until Black Swan, and the news that Aronofsky will follow it up by directing the next Wolverine movie. Black Swan is about how hard-working ballerina Nina Sayers (Natalie Portman) loses her grip

Black Swan is a masterpiece but will fare poorly in India as it holds appeal only for the elite.
