Without revealing my own feelings for the movie (I loved it, really honestly loved it), I find it weird that people criticize War Horse for pandering and schmaltziness while celebrating with ardent fervor the pieced-together, insightless, complete cop-out that was Melancholia. They’re the same movie, philosophy-towards-moviemaking-wise! Only War Horse is earnest about its conclusions while Melancholia makes none and insists you find that revolutionary. (“The depressive was right all along.” - Melancholia. Feh.) ANYWAY. Who cares. Movies. Extremely Loud sucks. Nobody’s seen it, but it sucks.
