Antichrist Unrated

The tone of this film is so dreadful, eerie, and bleak that you can sort of feel "Evil" presence. Las von Trier shows us a chaotic human nature of grief, guilt, and pain through graphic imagery. The film is slow paced and draggy at times. Some may say it's artistic or it's going "too far". For me, I think it's one of the most exhausting movie experience I've had. I do appreciate the film more once I interpret von Trier's intention. Definitely something different but not a movie for everyone

The Man Who Wasn't There R

A tribute and homage to film noir and classic cinema. Billy Bob Thornton's narration makes this depressing, dark humor film something very extraordinary. The movie is idea-driven (on existentialism of a modern man) and not plot-driven which may explain its slow pacing. Music score is perfect for the film's tone. Not Coen's best but definitely the most underrated film from the brothers.
