Nice work, Criterion — on both counts. Ramirez gave one of the year\’s very best male performances in CARLOS, and it is certainly a highly watchable work.

On the other hand, ENTER THE VOID is an overrated, juvenile bore that has no place in the Collection. And I mean that with all due respect.

But obviously that\’s not going to be the case. Fans like me will purchase \”Enter the Void\” when released and would love to see it handled by Criterion, it deserves the best. I\’ve seen it on the big screen and at home on VOD and it is mesmerizing either way like true art is.

They made the right choice with Enter The Void. It\’s clearly not because the movie isn\’t good, it\’s because ETV is a movie that should be seen on the bigscreen and the bigscreen only.

They are really missing out with not releasing \”Enter the Void\”. I thought they had finally grown some balls with the \”Antichrist\” release (which the article failed to mention as another IFC/Criterion release), but I guess those snooty balls can\’t get much bigger at this time and they\’ll keep playing it safe with titles like \”Carlos \”, Topsy-Turvy (eye roll), and whatever B&W japanese film they can dig up.

This is great news, I was a bit surprised they aren\’t released Enter The Void, but I was so bored by that movie that I am OK with that… I really wish Criterion released The Red Riding Trilogy though…
