well, I didn't say they weren't, just not as much as people are making them out to be.
Enter the Void is cool but kind of a chore. My thing with all these movies is that I personally don't think they had much going for them substance wise. I liked Martyrs but it was also a case of being blown out of proportion. That's honestly probably my main gripe, because then I go into these movies with pretty high expectations and they end up not delivering the extent that I was led to believe. Martyrs is definitely way better than Irreversible though, though the latter has a better head bashing. Take away those scenes and it's a whole lotta nothing. Martyrs at least had more great moments of cinematic horror. I'm also just not hardcore enough to connect with the message. I don't dislike any of them but I don't fell there's enough to cling to.
