The Bastard Goes to the Movies/Blackswan
For this review, I'm gonna question on why Black Swan is good, because clearly this movie is retarded. It's not good, it's not bad, I don't know what this is! It's dumb! And everybody loves this! Hell, I used to like this movie. But time changes.
For those unaware, I'm biased against the Oscars since February 2011, when they broadcasted the Oscars for 2010 movies. i thought, in my opinion, Melissa Leo was the best actress of the year for her performance in The Fighter, rather than Natalie Portman's performance in Black Swan. Portman got the award. I'll talk more about her performance later.
The movie is about Portman trying to perform in a Tchicovsky play, Swan Lake. Then, she hears that she will be rivaled by the one dancer from California, played by Mila Kunis. Oh gee, she's a villain and she's also a bitch. You know, if your film's villain has a trait, don't be just jerk and that's it, because clearly, this is what it's implying. Then, it focuses on how Portman is whiny and complaining a lot, she turns into a swan, literally, she has having psychological problems, and... this is all over the place.
The movie is also just too slow. Like the pacing just goes nowhere. We got 2 minutes in the opening of Natalie dancing without any explaining, slow filler, and then an hour in, she's a swan. I'm aware that this was "INSPIRED" by Perfect Blue, but guess what, that movie wasn't slow placed than this!
Now let's talk about Natalie Portman's performance in the film. She whines, she complains, that's it. She makes her performance in the Star Wars prequels seem good. She shouldn't get the Oscar for this! I mean, her acting is just her whining, and that's basically the trait for her, kinda like how Mila's trait in this movie is that she's a bitch. But people loved her performance... and this movie!
Hell, some people claim that this should've won the Oscars for Best Picture. For those who predicted that, you lost! The King's Speech and The Social Network were proof that they are better than Black Swan.
Finally, I have a question. Why do people love this movie? Why is it good? I wanna know. This movie is so bad, that it's needs answers on why people like this.
