Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Aims right for the heart and aces its target.
Fresh: The crazy thing is that, sarcastic as Dancer is, it actually works as an anti-capital- punishment tract.
Rotten: Much of it comes across as a giant, misshapen ego trip.
Fresh: It smashes down the walls of habit that surround so many movies. It returns to the wellsprings. It is a bold, reckless gesture.

I love this movie but its so sad
Dancer in the Dark
A most unusual movie, perfectly cast, that tugs at your heart and does not let go. Bjork and Catherine Deneuve are excellent!
