Entertainment Reviews:
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [T]old with passionate intensity, gloriously and darkly absurd. It centers on a performance by Natalie Portman that is nothing short of heroic...
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 3.5/4 --
Aronofsky powerfully reimagines Swan Lake through the lens of a modern exploitation film while taking his cues from the grand cinematic opulence of the films of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger.

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
[A] film that gives the hair on the back of your neck a serious workout.
Sight and Sound
It's a sensory overload-loud, furious, and rapturous. It remains the best, most visceral work from virtually every single person involved in the production.

The Ringer
Director Darren Aronofsky's darkly enthralling entertainment makes the perfect antidote to too many sugary holiday Nutcrackers.

Rating: B- --
Black Swan is intense, original and beautiful, three good reasons to see it, and Portman's exemplary performance adds a fourth.

Assignment X
Outlandish and electrifying, Darren Aronofsky's ballet melodrama takes wild risks, leaping from high camp to horror, with a grand jeté of high tragedy.

Product Description:
New York City ballet dancer Nina (Natalie Portman) enters into an intense battle of wills with a talented and ambitious new arrival (Mila Kunis) who seems intent on edging her out of the spotlight in this supernatural-flavored psychological thriller from director Darren Aronofsky. Nina covets the role of the Swan Queen in a production of Swan Lake by acclaimed theater director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel). The harder Nina works to win the part, however, the more overwhelmed she becomes by her suspicions that talented newcomer Lily (Kunis) is intent on stealing it away from her. As the production draws near and Nina struggles to master the duel roles of the White Swan and the Black Swan, she grows increasingly unstable to the point where she finds it difficult to distinguish fantasy from reality. Though her burgeoning friendship with the unconventional Lily helps Nina to jettison her perfectionist instincts and find her footing as the Black Swan, the closer she gets to perfecting the role, the further her sanity erodes until she begins to experience a bizarre and profound transformation.
