Dogville

Dogville is what we call a art film. This movie moves unbelievably slow and that is bad for a 3hr movie you will feel like you have sat there for 12hrs. Basicaly the film is shot like a play which many... Full review

The film is a self-absorbed waste of premium acting talent with a tedious script made even more tedious by the use of the "Our Town"-style stage set. At three hours, the film is an abomination!... Full review

This film is genius. It's a visual wonder through something that you would think would decrease the visual aesthetics: minimalism. The "poetic realism" of this film makes its point and gripping moments come to life in a way I've never seen.... Full review

Visually, structurally and emotionally pushing all the boundaries, Lars von Trier's Dogville is a striking and haunting film about power, corruption, betrayal and revenge.

Dogville is, above all, a film and as a film, Im satisfied with the form and the content and the acting. Its an emotional film. I decided that Dogville would be in the Rocky Mountains because if you have never been there, that sounds fantastic. ... Full Review

The movie is 38 minutes shorter than "Dogville" (although none too fleeting at 139 minutes), and the story is more clearly and strongly told. I intend to reschedule my professional activities in order to rediscover my original enthusiasm for film. ... Full Review

The film is obvious, weak and scattered and seems more like a practical joke than a work of genuine passion. This is a wretched piece of work, and all the more to be regretted for the bad light it casts on "Dogville. ... Full Review

He tells us what a disjointed community Dogville is, with a little over a dozen adults and several children living there.
