Nymphomaniac 1+2 review: a sophomoric misanthrope is enabled to make an emotionally barren, intellectually banal, and completely pointless yarn which serves as an excuse to show genitalia in close-up alongside masochistic female abuse. It reveals a deep misogyny, which preposterously attempts to garb itself in feminist clothing. It offers such a distorted view of humanity and human society that it makes an Elephant Sitting Still seem like a Disney romance. It is bankrupt of all narrative quality and is nothing short of contemptible in every respect. I was mostly bored by it but, on principle, I actively despise it. 1/10 (and that's only because I don't give zeroes)
