Does the Flower Bloom? (2018)

UM CONCEITO TÃO BOM PERDIDO NUMA EXECUÇÃO RUIM

Eu comecei a assistir esse filme porque a sinopse me interessou, mas a execução foi péssima.

Aqui temos o Yoichi Mizukawa que é um garoto de 19 anos muito traumatizado e antissocial e o Kazuaki Sakurai que é um homem de 37 anos com uma carreira e zero sonhos dentro de uma mente desgastada.

A construção tinha tudo para ser muito bonita, mas os acontecimentos são lentos, entediantes e com zero conexão entre os protagonistas. Nada se destacou, nem mesmo as atuações.

A química não estava ali, os motivos de ambos não me convenceram e os personagens de apoio eram mais interessantes que os protagonistas.

Esse é um filme esquecível e com um final sem peso.

Sakurai San meets the 19 year old reserved boy yoichi minagawa while at work. Sakurai realises how much yoichi enjoys painting. Yoichi lost his parents in childhood and he took an instant liking to Sakurai San.

The story is ok. It is not the age gap. The actor who played Yoichi portrayed the sad emotions and insensitiveness required of his character well. Sakurai handled the maturity of his character well. But what was lacking is the chemistry. The Chemistry to bind the two characters acting well for this love story was missing. That makes everything less interesting. Even though the actors put an effort to justify their roles, the lack of chemistry makes it looks like the actors have not put in enough effort. If you look at the intimate scenes, it looks like the actors are unwilling or awkward(in a bad way) to do it. And that really put me off. Oh come on Sakurai San, you need to show the intense love in a very expressive way. Minagawa Kun also need to be more expressive. I felt Minagawa was intense but need to be expressive. These subtle expressions would have paid off in a big way if these two had Chemistry.

I liked the music part.

If you are expecting an intense love story, you might be a bit disappointed. Still if you have nothing else to do and just need to kill time, then watch it.
