Review of I.K.U.

I.K.U. (2000)
3/10
Love explored
30 July 2022
Well I am not sure I got that right - sex explored? May be closer to what the movie is actually about (no pun intended). Also be very aware that this is quite explicit. A lot of nudity in this, but also quite a bit of penetration. Not sure if it is a stylistic choice or if they pay "homage" to japanese porn, when they obscure some of the actual sex act itself ... but I'm giving you the information, so you won't be surprised/appalled or whatever else you may come up with (sorry for the pun).

I don't think you will come to many or new conclusions watching this. But I do think the filmmaker tried to make us aware of stuff ... I just couldn't tell you what that would be exactly apart from certain cliches. The whole robot/android thing trying to figure out love (or rather sex or intimacy I reckon) ... well again, not sure what to make of it.

I also don't think there is much enticement or excitement - there are probably other/better places to look for that. Also there are glimpses of homo-erotic going on here ... even if most is heterosexual. Again just a heads up to anyone who needs to know.
