Nah, I found it rather lame and formulaic. I don't want to say it outright bad, but it really makes nothing out of its ideas. Kinda like Inception. Different enough from the dumbed-down mainstream, but just not memorable or gripping at all, imo.

Melancholia is melancholic.
If you've seen Solaris you may complain that Trier once again ripped off Tarkovsky, but it's not really comparable. See it for the beautiful and (self)destructive Kirsten Dunst, audiovisually stunning prologue and typically Danish Festen-like family bickering in the first act.

Watched this. Don't think I've ever seen a bigger piece of shit in my life.
Random for the sake of being random. Utter bullshit.

i have to agree. this was showing at the local theater a couple of months ago, and walked out after 20 minutes. i thought i would enjoy it, because of mr. oizo, but i was terribly wrong.

rewatched 'Vanilla Sky' the other night.
i do think people don't think too highly of this film, because it didn't do the original 'open your eyes' any justice. Didn't watch the original, but I do feel vanilla sky is a pretty solid film, and deserves a much better score than the current ratings on rotten tomatoes, metacritic, and imdb.

I love ridiculous stuff, as long as it's done well. Sad to hear it apparently isn't.
Did you ever see the Toxic Avenger? Perfect example of what I'm talking about.
