I went to see Black Swan tonight and thought it was very good. I've never been impressed by Natalie Portman, but I think she did well in this film. Her character, Nina's, slow descent into crazy town was believable. When she played the docile personality and constantly apologized to people, she made me want to scream. I guess the audience is supposed to react that way.
The film was actually more normal than I thought it would be and less difficult to follow. The ending was actually more realistic than I expected, too, and not as sad as I imagined it would be. It's a very arty movie. The costumes were gorgeous. Certain scene were gross, though. Like when Nina is pulling the skin off her finger and a whole strip of it comes off.
Black Swan is definitely worth seeing at least once and Natalie should be nominated. Not Mila, though. She was good, but her role wasn't difficult enough to warrant a nomination.
