Black Snake Moan<\/a>“.\u00a0 High quality, and I’m not talking about the DVD copy.<\/p>\nI liked this film from the first seconds.\u00a0 Before it even started, it positioned itself as a blues movie.\u00a0 And I love blues.\u00a0 Gladly, the blues vibe, the atmosphere, and the soundtrack lasted through the whole film.\u00a0 Some great stuff there, with the “Black Snake Moan” song scene being one of the best music scenes I’ve seen in the movies.<\/p>\n
I liked the story and the way it was told.\u00a0 It was very worked through.\u00a0 Sometimes predictable, sometimes unexpected, but really followed through.\u00a0 Probably the fact that the director Craig Brewer was also the one who wrote the script has something to do with it.<\/p>\n
Also, there was really good acting.\u00a0 Samuel Jackson played a character who was (or at least looked) much older than he is.\u00a0 He did a really good job at that.\u00a0 Christina Ricci, that little girl from the “Adams Family” … well, she’s not little anymore.\u00a0 And she’s steaming hot. But not only that, she is a good actress too.\u00a0 Her character in this movie was rather complicated, but she managed it just fine. Justin Timberlake pleasantly surprised too.\u00a0 I just recently watched a film with him, and he is so different here that I didn’t even recognize him until the closing titles.\u00a0 This guy too can act. And he seems to be picking up quite a lot of practice recently.\u00a0 Also, there were quite a few good supporting actors in the film, so that the whole thing felt like real, like they are indeed inhabitants of a small rural town.<\/p>\n
This film, although entertaining, is not purely entertainment.\u00a0 It feels like it was done, because the filmmaker had something to say, something to show. There are a few things to think about during and after the movie…<\/p>\n
Overall, a really nice film.\u00a0 Strongly recommended for any fans of good acting, drama, and or blues music. 8 out of 10<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\nI just watched a really powerful movie – “Black Snake Moan“.\u00a0 High quality, and I’m not talking about the DVD copy.
