The film offended me. Not by the explicit sex scenes. But by its ridiculousness, by the idea that this pretentious silly thing is being presented as serious art.
The protagonist's behavior is not realistic. It's is a misogynyst's personal fantasy version of a woman. The film intercuts her absurd behavior with silly dialogue. It's sophomoric; it's badly done. Von Trier's films are usually solid-sounding concepts, that play out as slow and pointless things. This one takes the cake though.
