Critic Reviews for Inju, la Bête dans l'Ombre (Inju: The Beast in the Shadow)

All Critics (1) | Fresh (1)

Combining a heavy Film Noir influence and some S&M erotica, this film is fun despite its predictability with an equal number of laughs and excitement.

Not bad. I guessed the twist half way through, though. Half Japanese language, half french. Quite an unusual mix. The scenes of Japan were lovely.
