Found this to be an interesting portrayal of what BDSM is. Lots of good bondage and restraint. Interesting story and fairly well done. Not a big fan of subtitles, but it did allow me to follow along with what was being said which is important to the story. Nothing appeared to be overly fake about the intense scenes where whipping and sex were involved. I would have rated this movie even higher but I found the last 10 minutes were stupid and almost ruined the movie.

A decent movie if you aren't upset by blood and beatings. Won't win any awards but is an entertaining movie for those that like the story.

Best movie ever!! This movie is for those who love sex,gore and drama.. Changed my mindset about life and i can not look at the same perspective like 2 days ago. The girl's backstory affected me so much and the fact that those people are in the real life too is perfect. The cinematic,acting and all the disgusting stuff was so freaking real like in the act they are really whipping yo ass!!! I watched every minute focused and didn't even bored a second. Who ever helped this movie to born gotta watch their project from others eye and realize what masterpiece they created and how it changed the thoughts on its audience..

There is Takeshi Kitano with the masterpieces like outrage trilogy and also there is Takeshi Miike with awesome movies like ichi the killer, audition and 13 Assassins, then there is this guy Takeshi whatever with Craig like this. Very disappointing.

I LOVED this movie. It's a more sexualized adult version of I Saw The Devil. It's a beautifully shot movie, that has a clear message, never give up, and fight for glory. The story was amazing, the only minor negative I can give this movie was honestly, that it had some pro-longed sex scenes. Like her masturbating in the shower, or the first torturing, it was a little bit too long, and it got kind of boring at times, however, it won't kill the movie, and the film is spectacular. I strongly recommend this movie to a fan of extreme cinema. I can assure you won't be bored during this, and I can safely say that this is probably one of the best Asian cinema extreme films I've ever seen, fails under the same boat as movies such as I Saw The Devil, The Untold Story, and Ichi The Killer.

Our main character is automatically loveable, and the movie shows the devastating scars that victims of actual abuse have to go through on daily basis. And then the movie pretty much circles itself with the past and the current time. It was like 1-2 AM, it was too late, and OMG I'm glad I saw this masterpiece. This is a must-watch, and it's an underrated movie in my opinion. This should be in the same hype as I Saw The Devil honestly, they're in the same boat of awesomeness. The acting is perfect, the story perfect, the plot perfect, the lighting perfect, everything here is amazing and it's just sad how underrated this movie is.

The entire movie drags along at times painfully slow. Only a small percentage actually can be considered a story or character development. Really not a lot happens. Most is dedicated to seeing some form of sadomasicism. It doesn't give you much sympathy or anger towards any characters participating. I would not say most is very realistic so that may be why. There is quite a bit of female nudity (breasts & butts) but not exciting or titillating either. Other nudity is not displayed at all as opposed to Japanese pixelation. When the story finally wraps up it borders on ridiculous. The camera work also often seemed like handheld cameras were used. Too much movement. Unnecessary. I will say the acting is good. But that doesn't save this turkey.
