Black Snake Moan Reviews

This is one of the most real to life dramas I have experienced of flicks. Tears trying to escape my eyes most of the way through. The foul mouth is a bit rough but there are so many real life events as the such. The Godly focus puts it into real perspective because after 38 years on this earth I found out that god is for real. One must invite Jesus into their life if they want to know for sure. "This Little Light of Mine," is a tender witness to his grace. Sing it, see if you do not feel it.

I remember it very well, before this movie was released, there was a pretty good buzz about it. Indeed, after the critical success of ‘Hustle & Flow’, there was some pretty high expectations concerning Craig Brewer’s directing follow-up. Eventually, even though it has somewhat become a cult-classic for some people, it didn’t really find an audience when it was released and it is not really surprising. Basically, it is a rather weird movie with some very peculiar theories, for example that you can cure something like nymphomania with blues. In my opinion, I think there are 2 ways to handle this flick. You either take it seriously and you won't like it because it is rather unrealistic or you don't take it seriously, you loose yourself in this rather messed up world and you may end up enjoying it. I guess I was pretty much in between. I mean, the directing was very good and all the actors involved (even Justin Timberlake) provided some solid and decent performances but, somehow, I can’t say I was really blown away by the whole thing. I guess my main issue was that I was never really fascinated by the story or by the characters involved. Still, in spite of its flaws, it remains a really intriguing feature and it is definitely worth a look. 

I LOVE Samuel L. and I LOVE Christina Ricci so I had to see it. I'm into weird movies as it was but even this was kinda like, wtf. I feel like Riccis little nympho issue was a bit wacked but ah well. It was a good movie overall I'd say.

I'd been looking forward to seeing BSM ever since it garnered early buzz at lasy years Sundance. Craig Brewer is proving to be a solidly consistently impressive director and storyteller. He's like Tarantino without the swag bag of stolen references. And man Samuel L. Jackson sho' damn got the blues. The soundtrack is great too.

I really enjoyed this movie. I have always been a fan of Christina Ricci and Samuel Jackson and they give strong performances in this movie. Christina barely wears any clothes throughout the movie and sometimes this takes away from her acting. Samuel Jackson does a great job as her guardian saint. He even sings a couple of tunes and really pulls it off. The soundtrack that follows the movie is full of great blues and is perfect for the movie.

There is some strong language, sex, drug use, and nudity in the movie. If this offends you, I wouldn't go see this one. If you don't mind taking a walk on the wild side, you will probably enjoy the movie like I did. You don't see the cute little Christina in this movie that you saw in Casper or the Addams Family. This movie is hardcore and rough.
