Dogville review by SF
Disturbing and thought provoking
(5) of (5) members found this review helpful.
This is not a easy film to watch. The stylised direction and cinematography is more akin to watching a play at the theatre, and whilst I expected to be able to 'dial this out' as the film went on, I was never really able to do so.
It's also a film that deals with the base nature of humanity in a way that escalates to a horrific and disturbing ending.
My wife hated it. But I was left with a deep, uneasy feeling after the film and it stayed with me for quite some time - so I suppose it did its job extremely well.
Like I say, hard to watch and a little too stylised for my tastes, but a good film nonetheless.

Dogville review by Andy
Dogville - Film of the century so far
(3) of (3) members found this review helpful.
My film of the century so far. Another masterwork from Lars Von Trier, the uber-director. Don't expect action here and don't even bother if you have a short attention span. One of the most fascinating, captivating studies of human behaviour I have ever seen in film.

Dogville review by Kurtz
Cinematic Marmite.

As you can see from the reviews, this one will divide audiences- some will loathe its stagy feel and preachy script and will find it hard to love the imagine-it-yourself set, complete with actors pretending to open and close non-existent doors. Even so, you’ve got to hand it to von Trier- it takes guts to sell this concept to high-rolling actors and producers and he ultimately delivers something fresh, original and completely unlike the stuff we see every week. Shame so many people hated it!
