The story of a teenage boy named Yu, who falls for Yoko, a girl he runs into while working as an "up-skirt" photographer in an offshoot of the porn industry. His attempts to woo her are complicated by a spot of cross-dressing – which convinces Yoko that she is lesbian – dalliances with kung-fu and crime, and a constant struggle with the guilt that's a legacy of his Catholic upbringing.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

I understand why religious persons or unattractive females may hate it but I totally see it not only as fun but also as empowering and funnily subversive. Clearly not a Disney film and that is a great thing. Prepare to be offended, amazed and laugh.

This film is incredible… Sono overall is kinda like Takashi Miike but he's able to make a 4hr film & hold your attention right till the end… it's filled with dark comedy, twisted story lines & random characters with violence & sex… it's so absurd all u can do is laugh, even in the most violent parts… but it also has beauty, tenderness, tension, psychological, and many other facts which makes this brilliant film so profound… If you haven't seen Miike's Ichi the Killer (2001) or Sono's Cold Fish (2010), then do that first before tackling this 4hr beast so you have some context of this fascinating masterpiece…http://samuellbronko.tumblr.com/post/120084197997/love-exposure-2008- sion-sono-10-10-added-to

Just watched it for the second time! First of all, I have to say that I'm not really qualified to write a review for such a big, awesome movie. But since its like my all time favorite movie, I can't hold myself back.I disagree with people who say this is a love movie. If you watch it expecting something like that, you might find it extremely unrealistic and unsatisfying. Of course, its also a love movie, but its much much more than that! Hence 4 hours of duration.Its a movie which focuses on love, lust, faith etc in an extremely surreal and unique way. I think its a movie about "life" itself. Many things seem crazy in this movie, but I think the real life is no different, we're just used to it. This movie made me re-think life, my life, myself, and question many many things. I think its also a philosophical movie in a way! Lastly, I have to say that the movie is really top notch from almost every aspect, like filming, acting, character development etc. I think there is a lot of philosophy going on behind every little detail that I'm yet to understand this movie fully.Anyway, I recommend reading other reviews too but be cautious of spoilers!
