Good but not Great

Rating: 7/10 (19 June 2009)

This movie was filled with dark imagery, pain, and suffering. Some of the scenes in the plot seemed to me forced, as if someone on set said, "and now cue the crying scene!" Everyone did a great job acting and the female lead was naked throughout most of the movie, which was surprising to me. Anyway the movie was short and bitter and certainly not a feel good movie of the summer. However Darren Arnofski's films are never feel good movies with the exception of maybe the Fountain which I am a huge fan of.
I would recommend this movie as a back up movie in case you didn't get the one you wanted in Netflix or whatever, but this movie isn't going to knock you off your rocker, nor will it make you wanna wrestle.
