Im into IT industry and I love it and that's the only reason why I pick this, but god the acting is awful here…
well believe me im used to this type of drama....ex. my boss my hero, yuusha yoshihiko, aoi no honoo.....but this was definitely overacting in a bad way..
I dont mind if the acting of the lead is bad cause miike done its magic again I love it. Fukushi sota is lucky cause i might drop it if this was not a gore type of movie, just what if the lead was played by kengo kora, kubota or even higashide..this movie might be better with different lead.
Nice they have sometani at the beginning....I notice myself always praising how good sometani is but im not biased the actor is just as good as hell, he compensates sota bad acitng with his. IF yamapi is the master of underacting then fukushi is the master of overacting, I must admit some scenes he nailed it but most scenes he overacts. The most consistent performance is from kamiki the dude know how to act, I find the lead actress good too.
The CGI is far from realistic but I dont know if it was intentional and they want it to appear like that and I like the music too. My favorite scene was when the hikkomori finally goes out from his room then grab a manga put it in his pants...his mom ask him where he was going....he replied "I'm going to save the world". Dont know if that was in the manga but IMO that was miike humour inserted in this movie.
I just recently learned that he went in our country last year to do a movie collaboration with a filipino director. What makes me sad is the fact that almost none welcome him as if no one knows him. But the ultimate annoying thing is asano and lee minho almost arrive at the same time and tons and tons of fangirls went to welcome lee min ho while he didn't get any love.
Asano will go down in history as one of the greatest asian actors. His legacy will be included among the likes of mifune, nakadai, choi min shik, song kang ho etc. While lee min ho I dont know what will be his legacy once everything is all said and done.
this was a cellphone drama then the remake this to tv drama. Both cp drama and tv drama have same cast and I watched the cp drama 2 years ago on youtube.........I forgot the link tho.
If your curious about yamada's role I might say this one is his most introvert role i saw.
some may say he is already great during his orange days and slow dance days but I dont see him as great actor in those show then he did akunin, boat, smuggler....akunin IMO is his career defining role. He imo is the best young japanese actor working today with takayuki, moriyama, matsuda behind.
he is also had a bit role at fast furious tokyo drift.
I love how Sometani handles how his character develops....wonderful actor. Whatever he does, manga types roles, serious roles, gore movies roles, he always performs.
I just learned that parts of the movie was shot in my country(philippnes)....its more big deal to me than a hollywood movie was shot in my country.
I have a friend on facebook that actually said he's in there on actual shooting and they made him an extra there as part of the crowd. She is a kpop fan and didnt know how big deal was that.
