Movie Reviews

indieWire - 10/10 by Lisa RosmanIn Melancholia, von Trier has created a mission statement of a masterpiece, one that reminds us that nihilism itself can serve as a legitimate form of creation, a means as well as The End.
Bangitout.com - 10/10 by Jordan HillerMelancholia takes great pleasure in distressing its audience with ugly, harrowing imagery and behavior, but, more often that not, Von Trier's film is an exhibition of life's beauty and the shame it would be to watch it burn.
Cinema Crazed - 10/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.A divine piece of post-apocalyptic cinema.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) - 10/10 by John BeifussAn overpowering large-screen experience for those willing to enter von Trier's 'magic cave,' where emotional 'reality' trumps the laws of physics.
AALBC.com - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsIt's impossible to guess what the end of the world might look like or how you might behave, but this alternately surreal, seductive and sobering descent into dystopia is as entertaining and good a guess as anybody's.
FilmsInReview.com - 10/10 by Victoria AlexanderTo understand von Trier one must accept Gregory of Nazianzus's explanation of the ascetic doctrine as "the pleasure of no pleasure."
Toronto Star - 10/10 by Peter HowellVon Trier remains a potent writer/director and master manipulator of images and moods.
Film Journal International - 10/10 by Chris Barsanti...[a] gorgeous, clever and eventually laughable misanthropic tease.
CinemaDope - 10/10 by Glenn LovellVon Trier's Melancholia, befitting its title, is a sad, meditative film, brilliantly written and startlingly beautiful to behold ... It cries out to be seen and discussed.
The Deadbolt - 10/10 by Brian TallericoOne of the best films of 2011, a stunningly original examination of that which is completely out of our control.
