Imagine a "Half-Life" film composed of one continuous shot from the first-person perspective.

  Two extremely difficult film techniques, there. One would be a lunatic to try such a thing.

    Enter the Void[1] was basically three hours of this. I enjoyed it, but it's definitely not for everyone. [1]http://www.avclub.com/articles/enter-the-void,52931/ http://www.avclub.com/articles/enter-the-void,52931/ Here's part of my favorite comment on that article: "The whole thing plays out like a video game cut scene that never ends, or a rail shooter in which the controller has stopped working; first person, limited third, floaty bits-- it seems to borrow a lot of gaming grammar for its visuals, intentional or no. Old-timey comics used to throw around adjectives like "mindbending!" all the time. I think Enter the Void truly is, though. It ate my brain and shat it back out in my skull... and I think it gave me insomnia. It's either a weird, pretentious mess, or a goddamn masterpiece, but it's definitely worth seeing."

      This evening would have been better if I hadn't been reminded of that film. I respect that some people enjoy it, but yeah, I am not a fan.
