Jack F @MovieFan111 Jan 29 Well here we are. I can now say I finished the epic. It felt weird diving back into this world for a second time, but I powered through. Like what most other people are saying, this one was not as good as the first, but only because it's a sequel, so it wasn't anything new. It was much darker and I'd say more inappropriate. I don't have much else to say about it.

I don't understand the director's style, but I understand his pessimistic approach nonetheless. What I can't wrap my head around is the ending. The entire journey we've taken since the first film made both the middle and the last third of the movie feel incredible, only to have it ruined by a scene of just over a minute that, no matter how you look at it, makes no sense, as it contradicts everything already established and even logic itself. If it weren't for that, I'd give it 5 stars, but because it wasted my time, I'm giving it one and a half. Perhaps it's somewhat redeemed by the possibility of an open ending, but at that point, there was absolutely no need for it. Simply disappointing.

With some of his best writing, von Trier also properly expands on the characters, making Seligman and Joe some of the most layered and interesting characters I've seen in quite the while. And he properly closes the story with a deeply satisfying and frankly genius ending. Though I never exactly needed to see a 5 and 1/2 hour epic of a sex addict telling her entire life story, I'm glad I did.

See more Ari V @RT59419633 04/02/2023 Like a lot of lesser Triers, has moments—and moments that will likely stick with me for decades—but gets too undisciplined and silly to come together in a full way. The very last note here especially, feels like a rushed cop-out. See more Read all reviews
