I absolutely loved this movie! Natalie Portman is exquisitely wonderful in this role - playing it with equal parts of vigor and nuance.
Mila Kunis is magnificent! Barbara Hershey has her best role in years and more than does it justice.Winona Ryder has a small, yet pivotal, role and she really delivers.
A thriller? A drama? A fantasy? A ballet film? All of these and more - no really good niche label for this one other than - a really excellent film with Oscar worthy performances.
See this movie, enjoy immersing yourself in it and revel in wondering as you leave the theater - what did I just see? There are no pigeonholes as far as types of films for this one, other than that of excellent film.
For those ballet fans out there, this is not a fully choreographed movie. The dance scenes are realistic and well done; but, if you are looking to see Swan Lake, this is not it.
Breathtaking!
