Enter the Void (2009)

Another artistic flop. There are some handfuls of really cool and beautiful scenes, but it is just sooooo boring. The acting is pretty bad all around. And I was not into the POV style of the film.  Had it been groomed down to 1.5 hours or less, instead of 2.66, it may have been more enjoyable.

5/10

VERDICT: FOR ART HOUSE/PSYCHEDELIC FANS ONLY

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

I caught a re-screening of this tonight in my city. Beautiful cinematography. Stunning sets. I loved the noise and silence contrasted between and through Stanley Kubricks unusual and very geometric scenes. I just don't get it, as with most of his work. Perhaps it was a shocking idea back in 1968.

6.8/10
