Sadly, the movie's moral soon overwhelms the story, turning an initially intriguing thriller into a ponderous parable where the message is all too obvious and the medium is all too dull.

Reviews for It's All About Love
Thomas Vinterberg, one of the founders of Dogme school of filmmaking, has invented a fascinating futuristic world that is ultimately more interesting than the central plot.

Um filme aborrecido e confuso que consegue irritar qualquer espectador.
11/01/03
A confusing succession of images, a plot with a vague resolution.

It's too bad the plot's pretty preposterous and the moral-heavy mush is just too much to stomach.
10/29/04
It’s like Kubrick with a talent-ectomy.

The shaky plot, heavy handed 'symbolism,' bad accents and a story line that had me walking the line between laughter and bored screams nearly made me get up and leave.

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

Irritates rather than entertains.

Top CriticThough I like his ambition, his execution is overstuffed, unoriginal and often downright incomprehensible.
10/28/04
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!'
10/29/04
Surely, Vinterberg was high on some inert gas when he embarked on it.
10/29/04
Top CriticThere's something inherently frustrating about the illogical plot and the breezy vagueness of its message, which seems to be linking the global freezing of a near-future world with the coldness in people's hearts.
10/29/04
The Danish director Thomas Vinterberg's tries and fails to spin a quasi-futuristic romance into a political allegory.
