Review of Melancholia (2011) by Armando P — 15 Oct 2017
Melancholia is Lars Von's 2011 Drama film that I almost absolutely feel in love with. I'm not one of those Lars Von fans that praise everything he does just because it's art. His style can be pretentious and silly such as his overuse of improper time edits, but this time the edits seem to work well into the film even if they're not at their minimum . The worst thing I could find in this film is some of the Wedding Rehearsal. I found this section to be kinda dragging on, but it does have a purpose for character development and it pays off. The cast were fantastic since Lars keep using the same actors, but the young actor as the son missed a few beats on presenting emotions. Melancholia is a great Art film about depression.
8.5/10.
