11/19/2013 No real reason to continue watching because it gets overwhelmed with too much unnecessary gratuitous sex scenes and every imaginable sexual taboo in otherwise conservative Asian society that it forgets to develop it's characters, especially our supposedly tragic hero at center stage of the plot who fails to grasp our attention. See more 10/21/2012 Interesting film if a bit hard to follow at times. See more 10/15/2012 Not a movie for the kids...minus the bad scenes, it told a really interesting story with a crazy twist at the end. Guess I have to tell the kids it is safe to come out of the room now that it is over! See more 01/28/2012 Interesting, intriguing. Maybe has one or two twists too many at the end, giving a soap-opera feeling, unfortunately, and also that the director was trying to be controversial, rather than make a good movie. Still, it is quite original, and a good drama. See more 01/16/2012 Interesting story, not as sexually driven as you may think it is at first. See more 04/27/2011 I don't know if this is the most awkward sexual awakening/coming of age film I've ever seen, but it's got to be in the running. Just uncomfortable from start to finish, and populated by unlikable characters. The French ran this kind of crap into the ground 30 years ago. Don't bother. See more Read all reviews
