The House That Jack Built

love this movie and always have to stream, was worth it

Great Movie

I highly recommend seeing some von Trier's other films before you watch this (Dancer in the Dark, Melancholia, Antichrist, Nymphomaniac) as this film is sort of a representation of his career in a way. He is telling his story through the serial killer Jack where Jack is a vile person lacking empathy, possessing a strong narcissism, and suffering from OCD that also believes he is an artist. His murders (Trier's films) are great works of art to him. I don't want to give too much away but this is very much like American Psycho. It's a case study of a serial killer but moreso a case study of a director. There are only a couple scenes of explicit gore and it is loaded with narration and exposition sort of like watching an actual video essay as Jack tells his tale. There is also a surreal aspect to this film which I won't give away but overall I found the whole thing very enjoyable. One of von Trier's best. This is not a horror film, if you enjoyed Antichrist or American Psycho or maybe even Birdman then you may enjoy this.

Haven't watch the movie yet, but as service, price, and delivery, so far is OUTSTANDING, the only thing I got disappointed at, is that by the 2 pictures displaying the movie , they show it comes with the Slipcover, I am very picky about that, it didn't come with it, but I'll eventually buy it again , I know, that's me, .Now, to enjoy the movie !.....Surprised it didn't come with it being brand new and sealed .

I want to warn people that this movie is not for the faint of heart. There are some pretty awful scenes in this movie. However, I have already seen this and wanted a copy for myself. Great quality movie. Only gripe is the case. It's so flimsy, geez. One star off because of the flimsy case, not the movie.

Extraordinary well done film. Matt, Ema and more are so incredible in this movie that I had to buy it. I watched it on a fluke not expecting much but a horror movie, I got so much more. Trust me you will like this movie.

One of the most disturbing horror movies i'v seen.

Please note that I *like* Lars von Trier. I own Melancholia, Nymphomaniac, Antichrist, Riget and several other von Trier films. I am not squeamish. There is a scene of animal cruelty in this film that I found both unnecessary and disturbing. The plot is scarcely there. The acting and cinematography are both adequate, and at times, strangely beautiful, but I won't be adding this film to my permanent collection. I rented Jack before the disc became available, and I'm very glad I didn't do a preorder. Watch at your own risk.

Una buona edizione, comprata per non dare un centesimo allo scempio perpetrato dalla distribuzione cinematografica italiana, versione uncut confermata, peccato per la mancanza dei sottotitoli di qualsiasi genere e lingua.

メディアは無事でしたがケースが破損状態で到着でした。ビニール袋のような全く保護不可の梱包は改善の余地ありです。

If someonehad said to me I'd ever watch a Matt Dillon film. Iwould have said yeah right, course I will. I don't watch pretty boy films. How wrong was I! I first heard about this film ages ago and scoured the net to see the trailer. I found it interesting so as soon as Amazon got a release date for The House That Jack Built I immediately ordered it. I wasn't disappointed at all. It had the strange logic to give a serial killer OCD and on one of the kills it does get bizarre as he has to check every nook and cranny to make sure he was going to get away with it. Another thing that surprised me is that Uma Thurman is in this film. Another bit of humour in the chats between her character and Jack, before her end comes. The only bit I did find a little strange was the end of the movie. I'll have to watch it again to see if I understand it any better. It's my first Lars Von Trier movie and I may have to seek out the others.

Great film and actor lm very happy with the seller and product

Gran película de uno de los mejores directores de las últimas tres décadas. Es hermosa, aterradora, entretenida y realizada con maestría. El blu-ray llegó antes de lo esperado. Contiene la versión del director y subtítulos en inglés y español, aunque estos últimos dejan mucho que desear, tienen muchos errores tanto de formato, como de redacción y traducción. Fuera de eso, es una compra que vale la pena.
