There are many occasions when I was very surprised by how far. The sadomasochism is quite shocking and raw. Maybe I'll get more satisfaction from the movie if I watched both volumes back to back, but as a Standalone, I feel Vol 1 was the highlight of the story and could have ended there. This film tells the story of a woman who turns into dark sexual behaviour after discovering that just sex is not enough to satisfy her nymphomaniac urges. If that was the filmmaker's purpose, than Vol 2 acts as a very lackluster final act. I purposely went to see Vol 2 almost a week after vol 1 so I can keep Vol 1 fresh in the head while I watched Vol 2, figuring like Kill Bill it would work like two movies split in half. It's almost like Vol I was met to be an entertaining more main stream movie, while this one tries to express a darker format, but while I see Vol 1 as a complete movie, Vol 2 felt like what was left over from Vol 1. Interesting enough, the strange turn Vol 2 takes is what I expected from Lars Von Tier. Though both movies have the same tone, Kill Bill vol 2 runs at a different pace, and I was feeling that somewhat with vol II of Nymphomaniac, but while Kill Bill vol 2 was still entertaining, I was missing that with the second Volume of Nymphomaniac. Nymphomaniac volume II had the same issue that Kill Bill vol 2 had. Honestly, I thought the movie was a little boring.
