Roger Ebert
As time begins to run, we meet a newlywed couple being driven to their wedding party at a grand estate... Every moment is saturated with the common knowledge that Earth is about to collide with an enormous planet named Melancholia.

CNN
It is one of the most beautiful, visually stunning, emotionally affecting films I have ever seen and is truly a masterpiece.

The Guardian
Melancholia is an absurd film in many ways, and yet it would be obtuse not to acknowledge those lightning bolts of visual inspiration.

The Guardian
the movie is heavy, though without weight or gravitas – a solipsistic, narcissistic, inhuman affair

The first eight minutes of 'Melancholia' is so breathtaking, it's hard to imagine how the director can possibly follow it.

Lars Von Trier’s reputation for torturing his female leads continues with Melancholia...

The Guardian
Von Trier has written and directed an entire film in his trademark smirk mode: a giggling aria of pretend pain and faux rapture.

IMDb
No one probably working today can imbue the image of a bride pissing in the middle of a golf course with the afterglow of existential soul-searching like Trier does here.
