Sunday my GF really wants to see this movie and I never heard of it. We go watch it and when it finished I was asked so which was your favorite part? The self sex part with mom in the room or the full out lesbo scene

Overall it was decent(8/10) see even with the Ocean 13 french loser guy in it.

This. Of course it was over-dramatized and stereotype-laden. Then again, so are ballets. See what I did there?

I also really liked the use of black and white, and mirrors, even though they're such obvious choices for symbolism. It didn't come off as cheap, imo.

Just because I cannot articulate it as well:

Thanks for this, kind of helps with some of the confusion after having seen this last night!

Intense movie, I'll give it that!

Unbelievably disturbing movie, but fantastic movie. Natalie Portman deserves an oscar.

Also, if you are in danger of becoming or have been schizophrenic, do not watch this movie.

Seen it last night. Definitely one of the better movies I've seen lately.

just saw it last night.the acting was great yes.and the story has some great disturbing parts and it seems like its building towards something epic and it.just .doesent.happen.

a better ending and i would have been sold on it.it just didnt go anywhere.a shame it had potential to me.portman will probably win the academy award but i dont think she should.

i dont know i guess im just not sophisticated enough

*goes to watch stepbrothers*

You don't have to be sophisticated, that's what's so great about this film, imo. If you don't think it's building towards something you clearly didn't get the point from the start. It's about Portman's character struggling to discover and embrace something about herself - her dark side - and when she finally does, it kills her. The thing that makes this film so amazing is that the themes and plot were right in your face the whole time, and yet it was still gripping/intriguing.

actually to me it was about a girl battling with psychosis being sheltered for so long and being mentally fucked up from her mom and the stresses of being a dancer, that when she finally tried drugs for the first time her schizophrenia kicked in...


but ya theres the whole battle of her dark side vs good side too happening during her whole psychiotic episode.

thats what made it so fuckin cool

Lol, that's certainly one way to look at it. But taking into consideration the Swan Lake ballet story itself, the Nina/Black Swan story seems meant to also mirror that one (ie a contemporary retelling of Swan Lake).

Alright, since we're dropping spoilers here, I felt the line at the end about "perfection is possible" over her dying as a result of attaining it was pretty trite.
