It's like your shot about Miike, remember? If you don't know something, it's better to admit it, don't you think?

Because saying that von Trier hides narrative emptiness with technical tricks raises the doubt that you don't understand who we're discussing. Narrative emptiness... you make me laugh.

cptgaio you are getting worse, you've gone from nonsense to bullshit... enough, just stop it... you don't understand anything about this film or von Trier in general... it's not a matter of tastes.

cptgaio, you are very contradictory. First, you define this film as faux-intelligent, which implies that you consider people who appreciated this film, like me, to be superficial, whiny, or even stupid for not understanding what you and your esteemed partner Poletti understand perfectly... or rather, what you believe you understand. In reality, you have only spouted nonsense, which raises the suspicion that you haven't even seen the film, or if you did, you grasped only a nuance that isn't even very important... In fact, this is certainly not a sentimental or romantic film as you would like to make people believe... rather, it is a film about ethics, about believing in something—religion, love, miracles—about diversity, about cruelty, about redemption, about sacrifice... in reality, all metaphors for von Trier's cinematic attitude and beliefs... or perhaps you hadn't understood that?

A round of applause for the great moralizer. Anyway, you see I haven't called anyone a fool; I just don't consider myself superficial just because I like von Trier. Tastes are tastes, and everyone is free to think as they wish, but I repeat, one shouldn't exaggerate with big claims, because it not only shows immense ignorance of cinema but also reveals a lack of manners and sensitivity, just like you, cptgaio.

the vote.

what nonsense. Criticizing this film means not understanding the magic of cinema. Lars Von Trier may be an uncomfortable and unpleasant character, but denying his talent and originality is a shameful thing. This is anything but a simple plot; it's a raw, dry, dirty, and destabilizing film. The actors' performances are simply perfect... how can one fail to acknowledge the merits of a film like this? You must be blind not to see the value of a movie like this, it’s not about cleverness, it’s about a whiny and superficial audience... let’s stop speaking foolishness.

But what fatigue, let's not say nonsense. It had been a while since Cohen was this inspired; in fact, after "Ten New Songs," this came and then "Blue Alert."

musical poverty? are you deaf?
