Dear Wendy Reviews

Sadly, the real Thomas Vinterberg appears to be standing up. But for what exactly?

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 22, 2013

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 22, 2013

Leave it to the Dogme brothers to do a strange, darkly comedic tale about a posse of dandies that fall in love with their guns.

| Original Score: A- | Jun 21, 2007

Entre la stira, la fbula y el comentario crtico (...) el inters se pierde y no convencen.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 21, 2007

The highlight is when a female member of the Dandies bares her breasts, which is about as pointless as the rest of the film.

| Original Score: C- | Jan 23, 2007

| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 21, 2006

Naive, corruptible, lonely young man meets femme fatale, and it all leads, inevitably, absurdly, to destruction.

The result is mixed.

a private joke for two guys who should know better.

We get it, Lars. Actually, we got it some time ago. Guns are bad things. They kill people and Americans are obsessed with them. Can we move on now?

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 24, 2006

The film has the unmistakable imprint of [Lars] von Trier, with its heavy-handed tirade, masquerading as satire, assailing what he perceives to be America's obsessions with guns and violence.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 24, 2006

Von Trier's caricature of teen angst and Vinterberg's junkyard-chic stylistic flourishes aren't about anything but their loathing of American culture.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 24, 2006

you won't know whether to laugh, cry, or moon the screen. Von Trier shoots, von Trier scores.

If Jamie Bell can't rescue a movie, it's probably not salvageable.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 6, 2006

The message doesn't come through with any particular wit or metaphoric punch, and it makes such a strong case for the joys of gun ownership that it could serve as a recruiting film for the National Rifle Association.

| Original Score: C | Jan 5, 2006

When you have to ask yourself whether this parable is intended as comedic satire or stone-cold-serious moralizing, that's a big sign that you're watching a misfire.

| Original Score: C+ | Dec 9, 2005

A dumb movie that thinks it's smart is the worst kind of awful.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 20, 2005

Wendy might have a bizarre sense of locale and idolatry, but the imagination of the filmmakers is just enough to help swallow their incredibly condescending posturing.

| Original Score: B+ | Oct 20, 2005

the story makes no sense and depends upon people acting based on some crazed Dane's mental stereotype of Americans rather than actual human beings.
