Another Darren Aronofsky classic!

Rating: 8/10 (26 May 2009)

Mickey Rourke truly came back with this one! He has an extraordinary performance. It does make sense that he lost to Sean Penn for Best Actor for the film "Milk", but there is no doubt that Rourke was a contender in that race. Great acting by all, Marissa Tomei was hot and perfect for her role. This movie will have you getting involved in the story and you won't want to have it end. You just hope the best for Rouke's character. Darren Aronofsky, director of Pi and Requiem for a Dream, comes back also with this film. Definitely worth the watch, and you'll be cheering for Mickey Rourke throughout the whole movie. It will having you going until it's final scene, which will give you something to think about.
