Viewers who feel like they're not getting the point of the story shouldn't feel bad because the actors also appear befuddled.

Top Critic A chilly romantic thriller that certainly doesn't make the point suggested by its title.

Quite simply, the film is a bore. A plodding, uninteresting, incoherent mess.

while watching it you might be hit with the urge to grab the Danish writer-director by the collar and shout 'No, it’s all about story!'

Top Critic A stew of silliness that's so ridiculous it's almost entertaining. Almost.

The Danish director Thomas Vinterberg's tries and fails to spin a quasi-futuristic romance into a political allegory.

Top Critic Though I like his ambition, his execution is overstuffed, unoriginal and often downright incomprehensible.

The deadpan weirdness occasionally slips into daftness, but with its brittle rhythms and puzzling ruptures, it's the sort of movie that could haunt your dreams for weeks.

Top Critic There's nothing like the challenges of filmmaking freedom, it turns out, to deepen an appreciation for constraint.
