An unqualified look at cinema, you don't pay to read it, so don't act like you deserve a good summary.

Movie 41: Melancholia
This chilling depiction of depression is heartrendingly real and honest. It contrasts well against the science fiction background story. Though the event of a collision with another planet could happen, I call it science fiction because I hope it doesn't. I am still tearing up from this movie, it just made me melt at the end. It's not a feel good movie, I guarantee you won't feel good after watching it, but it is a movie that I believe any film enthusiast should watch. It is not shot steadily, but instead from a moving person, with all the shaking and readjusting that comes with that, but I believe this adds to the realism and honesty of the production and I love it. I give this movie a strong 8 of 10, so you should sit back, enjoy a glass of wine, maybe put on Beethoven's Ninth and enjoy this nicely done art house film.
