I agree. I considered him a hack after I watched Melancholia, one of the most "empty but people will say there's more to it" films I've ever seen. It offers no meaningful commentary on depression, the characters are one note, they are stupid, and it plods along like a snail trying to get away from salt. Its only strength lies in its visuals.
