trashgang I never heared a thing about this flick but now and the, it pops up on lists were they are talking about shocking flicks or weird flicks and I can agree on both parts, it can be shocking for some and if you do watch it it is weird on other parts, That been said it is mostly filed under horror but I can't say it is really horror because there's no gore attached, it's all done off-camera but still it do shock. It's all about a man cheating on his wife. The wife knows so she decide to castrate her husband and from there I can't say more. What I said was seen in the firts 5 minutes. From there on the story goes really beserk. For the gorehounds or the lovers of old school horror there isn't much to catch but it do contains a lot of nudity, castration, bullying, rape, masturbation and mutilation. So you can understand that is isn't going to be a ride for will make you comfortable. Coming out of South Korea it makes it even weirder. And don't worry, there is no spoken word throughout this sickie. So no subs needed you can pick it up all over the world. Gore 0/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 0/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

redrobin62-321-207311 Wow! What a jolt of caffeine was this! I guarantee you that you will see quite a few scenes in 'Moebius' that you will not see anywhere else. Boy, are these Korean filmmakers getting daring.I'll try my best not to lay any spoilers in this brief review because that would ruin the joy of discovery for you. Suffice it to say, Hollywood or Bollywood would never touch a script like this with a ten foot pole. As a matter of fact, I didn't know what I was getting into when I acquired this film. I figured, well, it's Korean horror so I should probably prepare myself.I'm glad I saw this film; it really made my day. It is a must see because of its originality. I'm not going to say what makes it so unique, but you can tell from the high ratings it's received on IMDb that it's worth the price of admission.

thompson62208 I always try to be open minded about the cinema and movies. This one goes way way over the line. This movie has absolutely no value for the public viewer. The wife catches her husband having an affair with another woman. I understand a wife could go insane and she does here but to do what she does to her son is above the pail. This movie would have maybe been better if there was some dialog. Though I don't know if anything written for dialog would really help decipher what transpires in this sorry movie. I don't know why the director/producer of this movie would make it this way other than to "impress" a few deranged movie goers who will call this art when its nothing but sadomasochism in the extreme. I should have shut this movie down after the first 15 minutes. I advise the rest of you to not waste your time. Having a face-to-face talk with your mother-in-law is better than polluting your mind with this trash dumpster of a movie.

politic1983 When I saw 'In the Realm of the Senses' in the otherwise respectable BFI, the scene - you know the one - where a hardboiled egg is lovingly inserted into a vagina and then eaten didn't half make me feel a bit awkward, particularly when sat in a near-full screening. The fact that a man's penis were later cut off only added to this - in the film, of course, not the BFI.Many film reviews will describe films as 'this' or 'that' and how it will be an emotional journey, that will make you 'this,' 'that' and 'throw up.' But actually, do we ever experience these things when watching films in public spaces? I don't, but then I'm a cynical bastard. Kim Ki-duk's latest offering - controversial as ever - is a film, however, that actually does stir a bit of emotion in the audience. There may not be any hardboiled eggs involved, but there is certainly some of the other.To summarise the plot line would be to give a huge spoiler alert, and to detract from the impact of the film when watching, so I won't bother - and not just because I'm lazy. But essentially, this is a film about a modern family in a similar vein to Kurosawa Kiyoshi's 'Tokyo Sonata' or Miike Takashi's 'Visitor Q'. With all of Kim's films, there has to be a layer of controversy and possible religious undertones. There's less on the religious here, and much more on the controversy. Banned in Korea initially, the film comes with notoriety on its sleeve. But all that nonsense aside, 'Moebius' is an interesting and creative film. There is no dialogue in the whole film, bar the occasional screams of anguish, and as such the film is constantly in a state of flux to push the story along, as opposed to being a string of long, languid, art house shots. The pace is frenetic and comes across as a constant stream of consciousness. Kim doesn't leave you too much time to reflect on anything you've seen as things have already moved on. In a film without dialogue this works well to tell the story, showing (almost) everything and explaining nothing. This also shines a light of comedy among the darkness for the viewer, as the constant changes create a sense of disbelief at what you may, or may not, have just seen. I watched this feeling, at times, quite uncomfortable, but surprisingly not at the scenes I may have thought - Oshima obviously desensitised me to certain things. I never thought the typing of 'orgasm without a penis' into Google would leave me quite so weak at the knees. 'Moebius' certainly isn't an easy viewing, with a 'silent' film provoking the audience to spurt out words in reaction. 'Oh, he's not...'Kim's films may be varied in quality, but they are always thought provoking and definitely create talking points, ironically so for 'Moebius'. His films will never be the best you have seen, though they will certainly stick in the mind. Thankfully, there's enough good about this film to alleviate the controversy and make some decent enough thoughts stay in your mind, if not uncomfortable ones under your skin.
