Review of Nymphomaniac: Vol. II (2013) by Talisencrw — 25 Sep 2014

I enjoyed this sequel, though not quite as much as the first part. It misses having more of Christian Slater, Stacy Martin and, dare I say it, Shia LaBeouf, like the first part did, and von Trier's metaphors aren't as creative or as intelligently constructed.

The ending's perfect though--I felt that would happen, one way or the other. Recommended if you're not prudish and have a sense of humour, especially about love and sex, and if you're a von Trier fan and thus know what you're getting yourself into.

I definitely look forward to what he has next up his sleeve--he and Werner Herzog are definitely the most consistently interesting European directors of the past 30+ years.
