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

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.

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.

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

Rated: 4/5

…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…

Rated: 3/5

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.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

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.

Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é mais ou menos, o filme tem uma parte meio primeira pessoa de jogo de ps3,4,5 e meio psicodélico e maluco.

It is a representation (imo) of the "bardo" the state of limbo that a being lives after their death, that's why there's the Tibetan book of the dead in the movie I think. It is seductive but ultimately it feels like something you should watch while on drugs in order to appreciate it fully.
