Movie Reviews of Black Snake Moan
Movie Review: Incredible acting and concept for a movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of my "Blockbuster" online movies that I got delivered to my house, so I went into watching the movie with no great expectation--BUT---WOW-what a flick!!!!! This amazing movie kept me in my seat for the 2 hours it played.
A little bit about the movie: Ray--nympho with serious childhood sexual abuse trauma meets Lazarus (Jackson) bible thumping, borderline alcoholic, wife left him, electric quitar picking farmer. Laz. has a new project: make Ray right.....
The drama and script AND energy that these two actors displayed with one another requires a standup ovation from me.
I don't want to give the movie and all it's subplots away, so just rent it, you won't be disappointed.
Negatives: lots of swearing and sexual content.
Movie Review: Outstanding work of art
Summary: 5 Stars
Sin and redemption, music and hope, childhood tragedy and living life despite psychological trauma. This movie was awesome. It should sail high on the Oscar radar. Samuel L. Jackson and Christina Ricci deserve acadamy awards for their priceless performances. These were risky roles, especially Ricci's, and they weren't "pretty" roles for sure. Ricci absolutely is one of the top actresses, real actresses, in young hollywood today. Maybe she can't play every role, but she sure could play this one, convincingly and movingly. Jackson was perfection. I look forward to more artistic work like this from the director, Jackson & Ricci, together or separately.Movie Review: Well acted unexpectingly good movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw this film when it aired on Showtime, never having wanted to see it before as I didn't quite get what the film was about. My first time watching it, expecting that I wouldn't like it, just the opposite happened. The film is wonderfully acted by all actors.. Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci, Justin Timberlake, ect. The story to me is a sad one, with a very moving and happy ending. You feel for the characters, and I think Ricci shines in this difficult role. A movie with a more serious underlying note, definitely worth seeing. Great soundtrack too. Am glad to have a copy of this film in my collection.Movie Review: Amazing Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
An amazing movie that will keep your eyes clued to the screen. Featuring the talents of Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci, and Justin Timberlake. This movie is one that has to be watched. Samuel L. Jackson plays a man who has been left by his women and is going through a rough time. He finds a women (Christina Ricci) lying in the middle of the street one day all beaten up and half naked. He nurses her to health and trying to help her with her problems. This is a great movie that should not be passed up. Plus you get to here Samuel L. Jackson and Christina Ricci sing! Go get Black Snake Moan today!Movie Review: The Bizarre and the Beautiful
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one heck of a movie experience that you won't soon forget. Samuel L. Jackson and Christina Ricci turn in amazing performaces, especially Ricci. She shows the kind of acting talent I never knew she had. Even Justin Timberlake isn't that bad here. The story is graphic and brutal at times, but it really progresses into something beautiful as it moves along. The blues music just adds to the mystique. Black Snake Moan deserved a better audience than the 11 million dollars it made in theaters. Here's to hoping Christina Ricci gets Oscar consideration.
4.5 out of 5 stars
