Leave your thoughts about Dear Wendy.
| New York TimesA.O. ScottThomas Vinterberg and Lars von Trier take another step toward intellectual bankruptcy with a pretentious film about a group of pacifists obsessed with handguns. |
| New TimesLuke Y. Thompsonthe story makes no sense and depends upon people acting based on some crazed Dane's mental stereotype of Americans rather than actual human beings. |
| FilmFocusJoe UtichiNever quite hits the high von Trier struck with Dogville last year, but it succeeds in being both original and moving. |
| L.A. WeeklyScott FoundasStarts out as an inspired test case for the continued necessity of the Second Amendment, and only near the end does it lose some of its tightly concentrated focus. |
| New York Daily NewsJack MathewsDear Wendy is absurd to the point of comic parody. Bloody as it is, it has no access to viewers' emotions, and its message - play with fire and you get burned - is too obvious to be provocative. |
| Reel.comPam GradyVinterberg takes von Trier's witty, ironic screenplay, which explores the American fascination with firearms, and builds from it an elegant, explosive black comedy that adds a wry nod to that disappearing genre, the Western. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasBy the time this astute and entirely distinctive film is over, the folly of America's love affair with guns, past and present, is laid bare with the same inescapable force with which Gregg Araki exposed the horror of child molestation in "Mysterious Skin," a similarly poetic and deceptively affectless film. |
| Salt Lake TribuneSean P. MeansVon Trier's caricature of teen angst and Vinterberg's junkyard-chic stylistic flourishes aren't about anything but their loathing of American culture. |
| eFilmCritic.comErik ChildressVon Trier and Vinterberg can't help but hammer the firearm debate on every nail they can find and when they run out, the search begins for fingers |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoA satirical blast at America's gun culture. But it's so entertaining that even a die-hard NRA member might be impressed. |
