Black Snake Moan

Haven’t seen a thread on this yet, but shit, I haven’t seen the movie yet either. Looks great, plan to see it Monday night. I was never a big fan of Justin Timberlake (I understand he has a small part but) after seeing Alpha Dog I was impressed. Samuel L is teh bomb as always, I'm sure. To be honest, I can't remember the last movie I've seen Christina Ricci in. But from what I’ve heard, Black Snakes gotten great reviews.

It was pretty cool. I found it raw and riveting yet humorous and absurd. It was, by no means, a great movie. But it was nice to see something this original and they obviously put some thought into the movie.

I'd say to give it a try but I can't guarantee you'll like it.

Yeah, I think the whole concept is funny, but once you've absorbed that what else is left? Like with Snakes On A Plane, the title alone is hilarious, but the movie was okay, it was a good popcorn flick. I hope Black Snake Moan pulls out some good performances, this type of movie will really do well depending on the actors' chemistry.

It grossed a whopping $4 million bucks last weekend. I blame the marketing campaign, who made it out to be a super-taboo movie when I have heard it wasn't really like that.

i thought it would be really bad
but i guess i could be wrong

It bordered on exploitation cinema but never really managed to cross that line. And it was so absurd that it felt like...surreal so it was very escapist. i dunno...I just saw some really good acting from Jackson and Ricci. Particularily once they bonded.

I enjoyed it. I wouldn't go see it again but I enjoyed it. plus, I love the blues.

Its hit or miss for most people. I loved it, great story, and oddly entertaining. The acting was actually good 😛 I saw the trailer on the official site and i knew it was going to be different, lol.

I heard that the movie sucked.

It's something I'd be interested in seeing though................once it comes on tv.

I saw it and thought it was also a hit or miss. I thought it was pretty good, without a doubt quite strange though. The acting by Ricci and Jackson was superb ..
