I'm not sure what to say about this movie. Heard about it 2 days ago, and it sounded like something not worth seing (Natalie Portman isn't known for great acting or good movies). Then I realized it was made by the Aronofsky dude, so I watched it last night. Weird movie.

Black Swan was intensely good. Dark and beautiful. Natalie has outdone herself with this one.

I recommend it.

Warning: May be a little too lesbian-y for some of you guys.

(I couldn't even type that without giggling)

So yeah, go see it. Winona Ryder plays quite the fallen-starlet train-wreck, appropriately. I think she's making a comeback. She pales next to Natalie though, who totally OWNS this role. She's magical.

I saw 127 hours. Not good at all.

Was looking at IMDB and it had a very high rating. The whole "based on a true story" shit seems make people think it is good. Danny Boyle is not so good.

WHAT? Throw out Star Wars and her body of work is superior. Great actress.

Watched her movie Beautiful Girls last night. Great story, loved it.

I KNOW!! The movie itself was pretty good (although Rosie O'Donell?? Really?) but the interplay between Portman and Hutton was just great. Just great stuff. And this was all after The Professional. I just can't get me enough of my ex-future-wife-Natalie-Portman.

Natalie Portman wouldn't touch you with a barge pole. Well, maybe a barge pole. To roll you out of her way.

Saw Black Swan yesterday. What a fucked up movie. Very well done. However, I'm not getting all the hype about Natalie's performance. She was really good, but Oscar worthy? I didn't think so.

Uhhh, superior to what? I had to look at IMDB. V For Vendetta was not that good. Darjeeling Limited was great but she's not really in that movie. Closer wasn't good. Mars Attacks was fun!

The Professional = Awesome
Beautiful Girls = Really, really good
V for Vendetta = Awesome
Closer = Awesome
Black Swan = Really, really good

You're just a poopy head. :p

Alan Moore gets shafted once again by moviedom. Although to be honest, it wasn't that bad.
