Five Senses of Eros

This movie shows how capable Korean filmmakers and actors have become. Very good story lines, interesting plots and excellent acting.

This movie made no sense, no impact, nothing! I thought maybe there would be a cool connection in the storyline, and that something would come together at the end. The title was intriguing in that it provoked hopes of an interesting storyline, with some play of actual senses (like the movie "Perfect Sense"?) interwoven with erotic tales (like the erotic drama series "Red Shoe Diaries"?)...but no. Although it tried to be, the movie failed to be "arty", "thought-provoking" or "erotic" in any way. A total waste of time.

I rated this a 4. The movie was in English subtitles and was I interuppted numerous time while watching. It was interesting enough that I wanted to see the full movie, and I may look at it again when I have the time.

This movie was not as advertised in my opinion. Poorly acted and boring. Just a very uninspired story line with half hearted acting.

Unlike the summary, none of the five stories relate to any of their counterparts. First story sustains interest but then ends without reaching a thoughtful conclusion. The other four stories test your patience leaving you feeling cheated for wasting time to see if anything of substance comes from any of them. Watch the first story and quit immediately upon its conclusion.

Perhaps it's just a different style/culture, but somehow this movie did not give me the 'i want to continue watching it' vibe

I do not think that speaking Korean would help in figuring out his movie. It maybe would have helped to be sitting next to the director and have him explain it as it played out.
