I was so enchanted by Dogville when I saw it for the first time a couple of days ago, that I could barely control my emotions when I found out there existed a sequel. I went as far as upgrading my DVD in order to make sure nothing stood in the way of the refined delight I was expecting to feel. Yet, the movie turned out to be so incomparably worse than Dogville, or Dancer in the Dark for that matter, that my disappointment was huge.
Still, I believe I wouldn't have rated the movie that low (4) if it hadn't been for the concluding series of images. It somehow made me feel that all those accusing Lars von Trier of some sort of sick and distorted hatred towards the States might not be too wrong.
