With excellent performances, plays on morality and sexual behavior, Brewer composes another surefire classic.

For Black Snake Moan to work any sort of magic, it must be viewed as a blues riff on damaged souls and their desperate need for salvation.

The movie strolls right past absurdity into offensiveness, by trying to pass this pulp nonsense off as noble art.

The characters never connect, and the movie never takes off. Rae may be the one sporting a padlock around her waist. But it's the movie that's shackled.
