Sion Sono, the director of Suicide Club, returns with a beautifully complicated and deep film that deals with taboos such as pedophilia, abuse, suicide, and voyeurism-- and what a perfect director to make such a film. Sono goes about addressing these subjects in such a uniquely crazy yet mature way. He doesn't make fun of pedophilia, he blows it out of proportion to show how monstrous and damaging it is.
This film studies the essence of life itself, and what reality truly is in a world without mercy. Much of its imagery is striking and will stick with me for a while. It is absolutely riveting and fascinating and I highly recommend it if you can stomach its content. Though it is not as profound as Suicide Club or Tag, it is certainly worth a watch.
