The Sunday Times were not too kind with their review.

Strong early international numbers:
Quote:
Director Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan made its overseas debut via 20th Century Fox at 1,064 screens in nine markets for $10.85 million, sufficient for a No. 4 weekend ranking.
The vehicle for Golden Globe winner Natalie Portman as a ballerina in a death spiral opened No. 1 in Germany ($3 million from 306 screens), No. 2 in the U.K. ($4.2 million from 356 sites) and No. 3 in Australia ($2.6 million from 158 situations).

Production Budget = $13 million
Sales Gross = $80 million
THAT'S a hit! 
I hope Natalie is preparing her Oscar speech, we all know she's being nominated tomorrow!

$95,888,000 million dollars. Less than 5 million more dollars to break the 100 million dollar milestone!

It's easily one of the least commercial films ever to cross $100m.

Pressed and ignorant. Promotion is under the budget...

Anyway...
Definitely one of the most successful films of it's kind in recent history. It came out of nowhere, it dominated, continues to dominate, and while it had no "huge" opening week it's been extremely consistent for a ridiculous amount of time now, as well as putting Natalie Portman in real, serious Oscar contention and going a long way to help Mila Kunis in any future roles she reads for or is offered.
It's become a juggernaut.

Thanks to strong debuts in Mexico and France – where Darren Aronofsky is a popular director – 20th Century Fox's Black Swan narrowly took the No. 1 box office slot on the foreign theatrical circuit over the weekend, drawing $18.6 million from 3,044 screens in 34 markets, pushing its overseas gross total to $72.1 million.
The Natalie Portman vehicle as a ballet dancer in a death spiral was the top box office draw in Paris and suburbs, but finished No. 2 at 300 screens in France overall, snaring $4.1 million. A big assist came from a No. 1 Mexico debut yielding the five-time Oscar nominated film $3.3 million from 360 locations.

And in the U.S. it has done $99M so far. Could it do 300M worldwide?
