Holy crap was it awful! So friggin boring and pretentious. It picked up a bit toward the end, once the violent stuff starts, but it's still not very good, and it certainly doesn't work that it takes so long to get to anything interesting.. I agree that it has some nice cinematography, but overall, a big thumbs down, and really, a lot of it just felt like padding. So far I hate every Lars von Trier film I've seen.  |

I liked "Breaking the Waves", "Dancer in the Dark" and "Dogville" but I've avoided "Antichrist" and "Nymphomaniac".

I forgot to mention that one thing that did intrigue me was how much like Patti Smith Charlotte Gainsbourg looked at times.

I do like John Waters' comment a lot. This is from Wikipedia:
That's a great description, as we'd expect from Waters . . . but unfortunately I pretty much hate Bergman, too, though.

I liked that fox in Antichrist at least lol but yeah Von Trier films are for the most part a mixed bag. Still looking forward to The House that Jack Built though

Still looking forward to The House that Jack Built though I'll definitely be checking out The House That Jack Built, just because it's a serial killer flick (I'm really a genre-film fan, which is the reason I bothered with Antichrist) and I like Matt Dillon a lot. I won't have very high expectations for it, but I always go into a film giving it a good chance to succeed with me, even if I don't care for a director's other work. |
