I thought the film was awesome to see as a visual feast. I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much if i saw it on my laptop. It really was the kind of film that was a brilliant audio-visual experience and should be seen on a big screen with good sound

However, the acting and writing was shit. I'm pretty sure i enjoyed it as much as i did because of my interest in psychedelics because I thought Pretty much all the dialogue was pretty horrid.

As a side note, this movie influenced a shroom trip i had afterwards, in a rather bad way :frown:

I liked it.  It's not a traditional film and so I don't view it as such.  More like a work of art, to some degree.
I'm not saying it's the greatest thing I've ever seen by a long shot, but it's at least mostly self-consistent.  There is enough on the surface to hold my attention (but I like post-rock, for instance), but the subtleties and the attention to detail is really where it shined.  How everything kind of relates to the title.  The notions about the Book of the Dead.  I was somewhat cynical for a while, but the ending pretty much sealed it full of win for me.  The scope of it is broader than some people seem to realize (at least from what I can tell).  It was quite psychedelic to me.
And that intro sequence is  :uh:

I just watched it again recently. Fourth time's a charm.
This movie is seriously probably one of my most favorite flicks of all time.
In my mind sits up there with The Holy Mountain and Star Wars in terms of epicness.

I cannot even comprehend how anyone can think it's garbage. We must not have seen the same movie.
Then again I really do love the Tibetan Book of the Dead as well.
It has very occultish undertones, lots of subtleties yet extremely intense.
A psychedelically tragic celestial voyage interspersed with periods of blissful meditation.. A masterpiece of creative art. I fucking love it.

the first 1/3rd or half of the movie is epic. When i watched it i was like holy shit if this movie keeps up this pace for the whole movie it will be astounding. It kind of tapers off a bit towards the end though, it's still a great movie, but it is kind of drawn out a bit towards the end. I understand it is all proving the points and concepts of the movie (without spoiling anything), and it all has a purpose, but i think alot of it could be left on the editing room's floor and still deliver the same message, in my opinion.


Eitherway it's a great movie with an interesting perspective and story line that hasn't been done before - atleast not to my knowledge. it's certainly not just a carbon copy remake of ' godzilla ' or a cartoon of some sort.

I loved the movie. Story line is a bit bleh but the way it's shot is fucking fantastic. I agree with whoever said it truly is work of art. Gasper Noe also rules as a director to begin with.

I just watched it, and it was okay.
I love the concept, but i feel like they could have made it more exciting. They strung out a lot of scenes which made it boring to watch at parts.
I don't see how anyone could watch that tripping though,

Wow excellent movie. Thanks for the recommendation. I would recommend watching it late at night alone in a dark room. Then all the 'fade outs' that happen actually begin to en-trance you and draw you into the mood more, instead of bore you.

To me this movie is the existential-horror movie par excellence. I recommend you study The Tibetan Book of the Dead along with Buddhist scriptures prior to watching the film.

In short: existence is a void in which you are nothing but a collection of desires grasping at and attaching to at impermanent phenomena in vain over and over and over and over and over ad infinitum until you liberate yourself. The whole movie is by and large a meditation upon this.

fantastic movie, and your research is great too.
as for the confusing crash that does not happen, it is consistent with psychedelic time distortions where facts are recycled because of minor similarities of more than one kind.

Not all of us.

And Redgreenvines is one of the more intriguing members our community has seen.
He was here well before this thread existed and has the right to bump it if he doesn't feel like starting a new one.

Threadomancy!  :death:

I saw Enter the Void on a whim whilst tripping first time knowing nothing about it bar the name.

What a ride, great scenes, then its got real dark. So dark.. I had to stop it several times towards the end, just too intense.

Climax didn't push my buttons in the same way.
