Enter the Void (2010)
A POV story all the way through, this fascinating film captures the effect of a life’s end through the eyes of a floating spirit over the drug-infested underground of modern day Tokyo. Everything is spellbinding; the movie itself feels like a giant chemically-induced trip. Essentially the slow-moving dialogue, drugged-out sequences, and afterlife transitions cause your brain to turn completely off. Yet the protagonist’s journey is a compelling one, and the characters are well developed in the 130 minute running time. A splendid mindfuck.
Rating: 8
