Man, I can't stand von Trier. I've only seen Melancholia and Antichrist, but I think that's enough to know that I'll never see another one of his movies. Only Terrance Malik can make boring that entertaining (The Thin Red Line, that is, not so much Tree of Life). Then you layer on the utter ridiculousness of von Trier's plots, and it's a complete catastrophe. There were parts of both movies, but especially Antichrist, that deserved laughs when they were utterly serious. (Contains spoiler) Normally I feel some empathy for the characters when the world finally ends, but in this case, I was only felt relief that I could finally get the fuck out of the theater.
