If it could have cut out the last two to three of the seven or so endings, then I could maybe have seen _Black_ _Butterfly_ getting a bigger score. As it stands, I can get it to fresh by the skin of its teeth.

_Final rating:★★★ – I personally recommend you give it a go._

“A decent suspense thriller and its good for a one time watch ”

It all starts with some stories on abductions here and there then it goes to a lonely writer whom his wife left and he meets up a girl who helps to sell his house and since he can’t write a proper story in a while he gets all kind of irritated goes out for a drive to a nearby café so while going there on the road he met up this truck driver who does not allow him to overtake so somehow he gets in front and curses the truck driver and goes and gets settled in the diner with the girl he met so the truck driver gets there and he tries to pick up a fight with him that is when this stranger guy puts himself between the writer and the truck driver and the stranger threatens the truck driver and both of them leave off so the writer feels that he should have thanked the guy who saved him from that fight so goes finding him and then offers to give him a lift and then the writer insists that he take a break at his place then move on to wherever he was going but as soon as the writer takes him to his place he sees that the stranger has no intention of leaving soon….wait a min the rest of the movie u have to watch don’t worry I have not spoiled anything for you

Great movie with a small cast – just 2 men !
I really enjoyed Black Butterfly, it was one of those movies that you kind of knew what was happening next, and then things turned out very differently. The 2 main characters were very well acted. I know a negative reviewer was saying alcoholics don’t swig out of bottles, well as an alcoholic, I can tell you that was true to life, as was the early morning drinking, and blanking out and waking up in bed. The movie had a great location a secluded ranch style house and the tension was palpable almost from the start. I promise you, the ending was amazing and totally unexpected and a pleasant surprise. Overall a low budget movie which I enjoyed far more than Star Trek Beyond which cost $180 million dollars and which I refused to watch to the end. I am quite critical with movies, read my other reviews. This film is definitely worth viewing with pleasure and interest.

VIEWS ON FILM review of Black Butterfly
Paul Lopez is a grizzled mountaineer who lives all by himself. He was once a successful wordsmith of books and screenplays. Now, Paul has severe writer’s block, he drinks like a fish, and he’s trying to sell his house because he’s too broke to live there.

Lopez meets a drifter named Jack after seeing him at a diner and then picking him up along the road. He takes Jack in out of unexplained kindness with Jack giving off the notion of maybe being a cold-blooded killer. Jack eventually kidnaps poor Paul in his own abode. He then forces Paul to get off his butt and start writing again. Possibly, Paul could pen a story that resembles his own, weird encounter with Jack. Jack for lack of a better word, is a ticking time bomb who gradually frightens and perplexes. That’s the gist of Black Butterfly, my latest review.

“Butterfly” stars Antonio Banderas as the downtrodden Paul and Jonathan Rhys Meyers as the ruthless Jack. They are two actors who rarely appear in widely released films these days. This automatically gives Black Butterfly the vibe of feeling like a 90-minute rental (which in the U.S. it most certainly is). Oh well. Banderas and Rhys Meyers give decent performances anyway and “Butterfly” despite its initial, slow burn approach, never leaves you bored or disinterested.

Director Brian Goodman (What Doesn’t Kill You) creates a fair amount of tension, a solid sense of foreboding, and an ounce of claustrophobia that could leave any viewer of Black Butterfly feeling mildly discontented. What he doesn’t do is up the ante on production values and protocol plausibility that could have helped “Butterfly” coerce its way into more movie theaters.

Vaguely resembling stuff like Misery or 1992’s Basic Instinct, “Butterfly” might have benefited from having a more stirring musical score or a heightened level of eeriness which those films clearly possess. Also, Black Butterfly doesn’t give us enough scenic views of beautiful Campaegli, Italy (which in certain scenes poses as central Colorado). That’s a serious cinematography omission if you ask me.

Overall, “Butterfly” may not qualify as a masterpiece or a thriller that I would wholeheartedly recommend. However, I’ve never seen anything like it script-wise within the past ten years. As mentioned earlier, “Butterfly” has its main character dealing with writer’s block. I too get writer’s block occasionally and this flick resonated with me as a severed, frustration module.

Black Butterfly’s highlight is that it contains not one but two surprise endings. The first one dealing with a blown FBI cover, literally pulls the rug out from underneath you. The second ending which feels like it might have been replicated before, almost comes off as patterned hooey. I can just picture the meeting after final cut with “Butterfly’s” screenwriters (Marc Frydman and Justine Stanley) giving each other high fives in bemused enlightenment.

Bottom line: Black Butterfly makes its case for originality and tricked, gotcha gold that’s played just for the heck of it. Its title is derived from a tattoo that Jonathan’s Jack supposedly received in prison. In retrospect, Black Butterfly is also a Redbox endeavor that barely “flies” above the cinematic Mendoza Line. My rating: 2 and a half stars.
