This was one of the best movies I've seen in a while (I only just watched it a couple weeks ago). Jennifer Lawrence kills it, and the entire thing just had me on edge from start to finish. I can't fathom how someone could find it boring, which is a criticism I see a lot, because it induced so much anxiety that I wanted it to slow down at points! I love all of the metaphorical interpretations, and the final half hour was so mesmerizing that my eyes got dried out because I don't think I blinked for that entire section. Really amazing filmmaking, Aronofsky is definitely one of the very best out there right now.
