I saw this film during the 2020 edition of Montreal's Fantasia Movie Festival. It was a hit with the audience and it's a film I very much enjoyed. It was sweet and touching and had more of a dramatic tone than I had expected it to, but that's what made it so good, IMO. The characters were flawed and human and that's what made them so endearing. The story had substance and a definite moral to teach. The fact that the film was entirely shot on an iPhone made it very innovative too. More and more cinematographers and directors are picking up on the trend, these days.
This NOT a drama, but a fascinating documentary about Sumo wrestling. Director, Eiji Sakata takes us deep into the Sumo world and allows us a BTS view of training stables and offers us an intimate look at the Rikishi's lives, training and psychology. I would highly recommend this documentary to anyone who is interested in competitive sports, Japanese culture, or psychology or anyone just looking to gain general knowledge and learn about a different world and life in general.
I don't know why the ratings are N/A. I saw this film last week and really enjoyed it. Hong Sang-soo is true…
yes, it's rated as 7 now but the rating was NA about two months ago. BTW, that 7 is the average users' rating, not just mine. Actually, I've not entered my rating yet. :)
The most pointless movie I've ever watched consisting of an incomprehensible plot. The ending just fizzles out and you're left with a hundred unanswered questions.
I don't know why the ratings are N/A. I saw this film last week and really enjoyed it. Hong Sang-soo is true to himself and, yet again, created a great indie piece. It's a slice of life drama and a love story with a twist. Great plot, perfect cast and believable acting,
My rating 8/10
