Er but wait which version did you see? I hope it was the director's cut. Apparently the studio really screwed up the theatrical version.

Melancholia (2011)

Went and saw this tonight. Coincidentally Kiefer Sutherland also has a role in this. I saw the trailer for it last week and it looked interesting. It uh....was very artful but not much else. I spent most of the movie wanting to slap Kirsten Dunst. All I can really say about it is that it tastes like ashes.

It was the Director's Cut of "Dark City" that I saw. Now I am kind of interested in seeing the original for comparison. Knowing that it was made before "The Matrix" helped me disregard the similarities.

The differences are very subtle for the most part. The Theatrical is a few minutes shorter, and has a short opening narration by Sutherland that explains a bit too much. Overall, this is one of those Director's Cuts that improves everything without harming the original intent.
