A self-indulgent and literally masturbatory 3D sex drama.

French director Gaspar Noé reaches out to slap you in the face in the very first images of Enter the Void. The seizure-inducing opening credits sequence is an explosion of color: huge, bold, quickly flashed text, and a constant, nausea-inducing strobe-light effect. It’s as if Jean-Luc Godard, with his predilection for striking credits and intertitles, had decided to make one of his usual sequences while all hopped up on Ecstasy and methamphetamines.
