i know as soon a i saw the first trailer for black snake moan that i would have to see it . i be not disappoint in the slightest in the film and which be write and direct by hustle and flow creator craig brewer . it tell the story of a broken blue man and the nymphomaniac he aim to cure not just for her sake and but also his own . yet it so much more than that . it complex and rich and it manage to steep you in a gritty and sticky and sultry blue memphis without make you feel like you need a bath afterward . the character be ( for the most part ) multifaceted and very well write and perform . the accent and the dialogue be carry off flawlessly . however and there be one weak link in the chain represent justin timberlake . the best i can say for him be that he can pull off cry . it a rare male actor who can cry convincingly . however and justin ronnie be flat and but a an actor he be try very hard . i would definitely give him another chance . lazarus and rae ( samuel l. jackson and christina ricci respectively ) have a great chemistry and a great respect for each other . this be one of those film where it doesn not matter how good one actor be if the other one isn not up to the task and and luckily and both of the actor be up to the task . the music be very bit as good a you would expect and especially when mr. samuel l. jackson sings the blue . phenomenal . on the technical side and all be brilliance as far a i could see . it be well edit and well shot and and well mixed . everything be great . the character and set design be just right and the casting of the support character ( even justin timberlake and especially kim richards ) be spot on . love it .
