Movie review

From Time Out New York

Oh, is that what this mishmash is all about? It was a wise move to put a tip-off in the title, since Thomas Vinterberg's follow-up to The Celebration might have been completely indecipherable without it. Set in one of those Alphaville scenarios in which contemporary metropolitan modernity equals the future imperfect, the movie follows a gentleman (Phoenix) who arrives in New York to serve divorce papers to his wife, a famous ice skater (Danes). Malicious corporate handlers, clones, corpses and a perpetually transitory Sean Penn also figure somewhere in the mix. But trying to find a thematic needle in this haystack of half-baked ideas is merely an exercise in guesswork.
