Black Swan (2010)
Restored much needed faith in the movie industry

Black Swan could not have appeared at a better time. I had just about lost all faith in modern cinema today, with very few good films way too far in between. Darren Aronofsky is a true visionary. Detractors could argue that his work is too derivative - but so is Tarantino's. I was re- assured with Black Swan, a tour-de-force set in a dream like, claustrophobic and dark New York City. In spite of the darkness, Black Swan is also incredibly beautiful. Portman's performance lives up to the hype and is nothing short of incredible. The real standout, however, is Winona Ryder's sublime cameo as a washed up waif.
10/10
