It's people (usually kdrama watchers) watching fluffy romcoms starred by new comers and idols. They just have…
Correct they need to delve deeper n need patience ,they end up watching dramas on Infidelity n form an opinion that Japan only produces dramas on cheating. Even Netflix add the worst Jdramas which doesn't help. Netflix has good anime like Monsters ,Ergo Proxy and Berserk but people generally don't watch them.
A sad n realistic movie about sacrifice and love. The last scenes were annoying when his father had sudden change of heart n that emotionless last meeting .All other characters except Otoku were selfish. Overall it's an average movie. This reminded me of Bollywood movie i watched as a kid named 'Mera Naam Joker' .I rarely watch Bollywood but recommend it mainly because it has beautiful songs as all old Hindi songs used to be .Mera Naam Joker was more frustrating,heartbreaking and toxic than this movie but it had emotions.
I thought it was mainly a courtroom movie but it's a very well crafted psychological movie about love and obsession more than mystery . This should have been more detailed covering all the inner demons n emotions of the characters,it felt a bit short.Still a very good movie for 1961 ,i bet it would have been sensational when it came out. Loved the character of the guy's fiance,she was equally twisted n unpredictable.
This is the well told n developed story on incest. Incest which doesn't revolve around sex n lust like in most of the incest manga/anime/movies from Japan or France , the siblings share the attraction n emotion which are not driven by lust which i found refreshing bcz they are still minor n on growing up stage,it's easy to lose yourself to sex in that age. Mitsu No Aji is also the same but the couple is mature in that . Although i was expecting sex i still like the story as it was different n sex doesn't play a role in it. Its an emotional incest story from different angle which is very well suited for new generation who makes fuss about almost everything like noona romance,age difference ,nudity etc etc n censorship these days. But i still hope Japanese cinema goes back to its old self where they were much bolder n limitless.Even so, i will support this as it's been a while Japan has released an incest story.
It's a simple drama. Not some typical romance plot where MC forgets about revenge after falling in love or thrilling, dramatic n extraordinary revenge plot with some humanist approach and message like Harakiri. The story is very simple, action is below average n acting is good. Overall a decent one time watch movie.
Surrealist ,horror,psychological ,avant-garde movie.This was like combination of Shunji Iwai n Terayama Shuji but to me it was a complete failure n i was thoroughly bored watching this which is rare for me as i always love this kind of movies but man,it really dragged. The major problem was time length which should have been shorter like an hour or less.
Watched it on some porn site but it was so boring, emotionless n ridiculous that I dropped it .There r much better incest romance manga/anime from Japan to waste time on this.
"Love is not a feeling, it's a verb" The MC is a good actor, i mainly watched it for him n i wasn't disappointed. This was more of a slice of life than romance, so don't expect much. Japan can make a very detailed, well written n precise drama in the shortest time span. However this seemed lacking n shallow , it still has a good plot with a very good message. I liked the ending n acting by MC so i recommend this.
Heartwarming n sweet movie about night school teacher n his students n their stories. The second half dragged on with Inou San's story n that forced kiss scene was unnecessary.I wish the writer kept the story like it was in the first half throughout the movie where we get to know the students from different background , age n how the MC established relationship with them selflessly.I still enjoyed it.
Few sceneries were nostalgic but many scenes n acting were cringey n romance was full of cliches, i like narration in movies but even that got me bored. I don't mind cliches but the plot n characters were not well written. It was like some badly written bollywood movie with shallow characters trying to be cool riding bikes.I didn't feel their passion towards bike let alone romance. This movie is an insult to Kawasaki. I won't recommend this if someone is looking for passionate story of a biker or good romance.
Avant-garde, surrealistic film with heavy usage of symbolism n metaphors about the MC who is losing his sense of reality n wants to help his crazy wife escape the asylum. Beautifully shot and acted.We are lucky that they added music to it later on.Still can't believe it is this old. A must watch film for any movie lover.
Ji hyun woo looked damn hot in this drama n ost was amazing.I watched it few yrs ago , It's a good melodrama but I wanted some smut scenes,this drama needed it.
The last scenes were annoying when his father had sudden change of heart n that emotionless last meeting .All other characters except Otoku were selfish.
Overall it's an average movie.

Another Hindi movie recommendation: Pyaasa 1957
Touching, pure,bittersweet n emotional movie about parent and child.
This movie really moved me.
