By Tom Charity from LOVEFiLMLove Lars von Trier or hate him - and he makes it hard to love him some times - you would have to be blind to deny his virtuosity.

(743)did not get it
By vickig0306 (429 reviews) from Halifax , 19 May 2013I just did not get this film. I found it boring, slow & quite pointless. I thought considering the cast that it would be quite a good film but it just wasn't. Rubbish- Was this review helpful to you?

Stunning piece of work
By Frodo65 (2 reviews) , 19 May 2013this is what true film making is all about, leaves you thinking about the movie for days after, Best watched without knowing to much about the story as you continue to wonder where its all leading , the cast is truly exceptional , John hurt has a small part and once again gives a masterclass in acting however its Kirsten Dunst's performance that steals the film, the film is split in two parts some will say first half better although i found the second more thought provoking. the title of the film sums up the whole feel of this art house film. If you love Art house you will be immersed in this from the start to the beauty of its ending.- Was this review helpful to you?

Enjoyable if you prefer thought-provoking to gun-toting
By a customer , 04 May 2013I enjoyed this film. Although very slow to get started (and I don't really see the point of the overture section) and rather 'arty' in style, the film has a very gentle and sensitive feel about it. Beautifully acted, quiet and thought-provoking. And nice to see two female protagonists as well.- Was this review helpful to you?

Beautiful if flawed
By StephenO53 (1 review) , 24 Apr 2013Beautiful if flawed film about the end of the world, power and coping with the inevitable. First half is outstanding. Second half is excellent though could have done with some editing. Haunting film that keeps coming back to me. Recommended. But not a sci-fi black buster!- Was this review helpful to you?
