    Is Von Trier even trying anymore? Glad to see people have stopped paying attention to his films and are realizing The Idiots was a fluke. Keep Dogme95 back in 1995 when Von Trier was a goat herder and a real filmmaker like Michael Mann was finishing his masterpiece Heat.

    For all its slightness, pic is helmer's least pretentious and most sheerly enjoyable for years.

    Colors and angles and sound levels don't match from one cut to the next. The movie is ugly as sin to look at. But it's all intentional on the part of von Trier.

    The result is a kind of very faux documentary style, which, along with the subject matter, has suggested to some the influence of the BBC television series "The Office." Von Trier says he's never seen an episode, and I believe him.
