Review of Melancholia (2011) by Finnatic — 07 Jan 2012
No. No. No. Critical acclaim-itis has struck again. This movie tanked with me from nearly the moment that I rented it on pay per view. I thought the premise was Another Earth-ish enough to justify a watch, but I was sincerely wrong. This movie is a hot mess. Even the end will never be as powerful as what has been committed to film previously. See Last Night, a 1998 film about the apocalypse, instead. It's a far better movie.
I gave this film a 2 simply because I felt like the subject was a worthy one, even if the execution was sorely lacking.
