“Right, well I didnu0026#39;t really know that I was getting myself into a Japanese softcore S/M movie here, when I sat down to watch u0026quot;Female Teacher In Rope Hellu0026quot; (aka u0026quot;Dan Oniroku: Onna kyôshi nawa jigokuu0026quot;). Sure, I had expected that this would be an exploitation movie, but not that it would be mere inches away from being actual pornography.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSure, director Shôgorô Nishimura managed to keep the movie tactful enough so it didnu0026#39;t cross over and became pornography, but it was bordering. And actually it was a tad too much for my liking, and I must admit that I just gave up a little more than halfway through the movie. It was so repetitive and pointless that there simply was no sense in watching the movie to the end.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe storyline was so simplistic that it was painful. Actually, the storyline was almost non-existing. A man kidnaps a woman and keeps her as a slave in his basement. And that was essentially the entire movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI canu0026#39;t really say much about the acting in the movie, because there was nothing extraordinary to be had here. This movie made very little requirements in terms of proper acting skills from the people on the cast list. Junko Mabuki, playing Sayuri, the kidnapped teacher – just had to put on physical performances, and that was basically it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI am sure that there is and was an audience for a movie such as u0026quot;Female Teacher In Rope Hellu0026quot;, but personally I didnu0026#39;t care much for what the movie had to offer. My rating for this ordeal of a movie is a mere three out of ten stars, solely given the production value of the movie.”
