In response to "Mike D'Angelo: Antichrist ('09 Von Trier): 19 (if serious)/91 (if someone can persuade me it's the greatest prank in cinema history). -- nm" by Reagen

Though the more I read, the more defenders the film has. It seems like the most negative rushed to their computers immediately after the screening.

While those that have taken the time to let it settle in seem to be more positive. No real raves, but there's a lot more thoughtfulness there than maybe shows at first glance. I was getting the sense that early on even with some good stuff, no one was super excited about what they were seeing at Cannes and that people were a little bored. Antichrist at least was a jolt to wake them up.
