The Void and The Vanity

Damn I fucking love it. It's a fucking experience. Relatable af. But the small screen is too uncomfortable to watch and then it really shakes and I feel dizzy. Tokyo is really an interesting city for European and American movies. The whole vibe thing.

Drug, Sex, Death, Reincarnation, Birth, Hallucination, Illusion, and all the emptiness, vanity, and the fragility.

There is also the complex between brother and sister. When the sister wants to kiss the brother, the brother refuses, the sex between the brother and the sister and the mother. The friendship is fragile.

Cinematography is really cool.

Although I think the final ending is a bit draggy and unnecessary. Starting from the hotel section. But Vagina’s subjective shots, sperm ejaculation, and fertilized egg formation are still very cool. But in the end it’s really too drag for the child to be born. There is no need to drag it. .

Then the protagonist's VO is still a bit Distracting, could be blended with the film better.

Then Gaspar Noe really likes to shoot the scene of loud quarrels and tearing arguing and roaring across the door/through the crack of the door.

    0 marks. The more you shoot like this, the more annoying you are, do you dare to show your true skills! How superficial!

    Like "Irrevocable", it doesn't make people breathe, and the photography is invincible.
