Review of Black Snake Moan (2006) by Bret G — 20 Oct 2014
While a far cry from Brewer's stirring breakthrough 'Hustle & Flow,' 'Black Snake Moan' delivers as a slow-burning character study refreshingly afraid of neither melodrama nor weirdness.
Yes, it's excessive, but therein lies its appeal. Ricci is fearless, Jackson's towering charisma is in full-force, and the rural locale is put to good use. Worth a look if you're in the mood for deliberately paced eccentricity.
Rent it.
