What to Know

Critics Consensus

Grimy and psychedelic, Enter the Void ushers audiences through an out-of-body experience with the eye for extremity and technical wizardry that Gaspar Noé fans have come to expect.

Philippa Snow New Statesman 11/04/2020
As with most of Noé's films, Enter the Void is a bright, bratty middle finger, making it the perfect setting for a natural-born provocatrice such as de la Huerta. Go to Full Review
Matt Cipolla RogerEbert.com 07/27/2020
It's a form of atheistic spiritualism that Noé treats as sci-fi, like a drug-fueled melodrama as told by 2001's star child. Go to Full Review

Enter The Void is ridiculous, funny, shocking and crazy - but it's also utterly seductive. Go to Full Review

…a phantasmagoria of drugged-up weirdness is something of an acquired taste, but its also ambitious, original and visually stunning…Gaspar Noe’s no-hold-barred POV approach certainly delivers a shock to the system for unwary viewers… Go to Full Review

@Macabrebat Dec 7 Honestly, I 100/10 recommend this movie. I am kind of weirded out by all the graphic sex scenes but in a way they make sense ? The exploration through someone’s life, their traumas, their relationships, their bad decisions, and how they ended up where they currently are is so beautiful to me. The graphics feel like a trip like almost as if you consumed DTM like the main protagonist did, it does a good job at that See more EJ G. @Artist_Lens Sep 27 Disclaimer, all ratings are based on the following criteria: 5 star great 4 star good 3 star decent 2 star poor 1 star awful See more Richard B @RichardB12314 Jul 5 Most of the movie is the ending of the main character and it's up to the audience as to what happened to him. Despite the sex, drugs, and crime, the movie is really about trauma and that's where the feelings reside. The rest of the movie is modern emptiness, which Noe does well, of a cityscape where only individuals create the meaning but are shapes and colours with no meaning of their own. See more Filippos S Apr 13 Not bad movie, that's for sure. But is big and very slowly. See more Kyle C @kylekc Feb 5 This is a movie unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before. To me, its defining feature is its first-person point of view, which starts as very jarring and distracting (accurately reflecting the chaos of being alive) before shifting to a more relaxed, semi-first-person angle that still feels intimate but significantly more comfortable. The directing throughout the film does such an incredible job of making you feel what the protagonist is feeling (if it can even be called feeling) and that’s what really stands out to me. It’s held back a little by a weaker first act with some stiff acting and awkward dialogue, but as the film moves into surreality, these things are less noticeable. Overall, this is not a film I would recommend to everyone and at times it was a very difficult watch, but I love the effect that it had on me and I’m truly impressed by the visual, auditory, and narrative marvel of Enter the Void. See more Dominique W Feb 4 This is without a doubt the worst movie I have ever seen. I went into a minor depression for a few days after because of how bad it was - it made me not want to watch movies anymore. I could provide critical analysis to lend my opinion credibility, but honestly even thinking about this movie makes me sad and angry. It’s not worth my energy and it is certainly not worth your time. Gaspar Noe, you are a hack and I hate you. See more Read all reviews
