Dogville would have worked far better as a stage play than a film, however that does not mean that this isn't a great work of cinema. While often brutal, the script for this film is among the better written and the minimalist set works for the film rather than taking way from it.

The performances are strong and at no point do you think "Wow this is terrible". In fact, despite almost being three hours long this film doesn't seem to drag. Not to mention the cinematography is quite good despite not much to work with background wise.

Lars von Trier's Dogville is worth anyone's time if your mind is open enough to see it.
