Review of Black Cloud

Black Cloud (2004)
9/10
For the budget and time spent filming - this is a great movie

I would have liked to see what they could have done with more money and budget! Rick Shroder did a great job, and all the actors are to be applauded as well.

I was afraid this movie might be too "dark" or "violent". Instead, I found it thought provoking.

What I found most thought provoking was that Black Cloud finds out in the movie he has white blood in him. He feels this is a demon part of him, it is seen as impure. A good part of the movie is spent with him fighting his own internal demons. We all have demons - Shroder's ability to capture this for us, show us the struggle, and then the eventual acceptance and the strength that ones gains when you come to accept yourself is thought provoking in itself. To be able to do so in a story that is about love, friendship, and becoming a man - makes this story entertaining for all.

Please take your kids to see this movie. It is a great movie for teenagers and all audiences.
