In general, I would say that the film functions quite well as an erotic film, but less so as a drama. Definitely deserves a watch though, since the various segments work for the most part, although mostly individually, and not so much as a whole.

10/02/2018 This is like a bold concept envisioned by a self-styled intellectual that's executed by clueless amateurs. Indulgent and pretentious, it's hard to believe Eric Khoo made this. See more Read all reviews
