It's Oscar count down and these were two of the last few I have left to see.
Black Swan
I would not have bothered with Black Swan if it hadn't been nominated for 3 big categories. I did not enjoy this movie and I can't say anything redeeming about it or the story line. Did the actors do a good job at acting deranged? Yes, they did, for that matter I think I could too. If I were a ballerina I would certainly be upset with the portrayal of the dancers, directors and all involved in that industry. Skip it!
Biutiful
This one is harder to say if I liked it or not. That in itself should make you think twice about going to see it. The movie had SO much going on it made your head spin. I left there shaking my head thinking "who writes this stuff and where do they come up with it??"
The single father that speaks to dead people is trying to raise two beautiful children immediately finds out he's dying of cancer. Meanwhile his drug addicted ex-wife that's fooling around with her ex-brother-in-law, tries to come back into their life. He's also running a slave trafficking business that goes from bad to worse and sells counterfeit luxury items. I'm just touching on the top layer, I promise you. Please let me know what you think of this one if you see it.
3 out of 5 stars
