Very rare to find an actor who actually looks good n very serious with blonde hair. There's not much drama or any plot depth, still enjoyed this bcz of their acting,good music n direction except that bed scene shooting at ep.9 was funny though.
Waste of amazing cast especially Robin Furuya. Tonnes of amazing mangas n novels with good plot out there n they always use similar plots like this whether it's office romance or first love returns.
The theme is based on how Capitalism ruins the peaceful n beautiful Nature ,it could've been a good environmentalist fable but I don't like when Japanese directors add shock factor in the end which are inconsistent with the theme .
So this movie was more about the MC Takumi than social commentary on capitalism n it's adverse effect on environment or anything else as the synopsis suggests. I found it below average.
Could have been better.I was so bored.It was scary as I am alone but again I get scared watching all horror movies when I'm alone,it was different I give it that but that's it.I would say it's the worst of all the movies I have watched of Kiyoshi San.
A psychological horror movie where there's no jump scare n ghosts with good sound score n acting. The movie is subtle n so much is left for viewer's interpretation. I dint like it as much as other Kiyoshi san's movies n i have watched most of his movies ,this was really different n actually better than his previous horror n the horror movies coming out these days.
Good casting ,I really liked Ai's slow acting n movements but it could have been used in better plot. Taiga's outbursts seemed really fake n odd whereas he is a good actor.
There are a lot of Japanese movies n mangas based on unrequited one sided love which are very good ,this movie was no different theme wise but the women getting crazy n ruining everyone's life around them for a guy who we don't even see throughout the movie n that guy isn't even good,we don't know where he is then he suddenly shows up in the end like some mysterious angel n then out of nowhere our MC has changed n redeemed herself , everything about the plot was really nonsense n inconsistent . Better skip this.
It wasn't that emotional that would make u cry but still a very sad movie. I don't know how to feel about the ending, i found the father somewhat selfish? Kindhearted but selfish, everyone in this movie had an ulterior motive in helping others so this dint make me emotional but it was realistic, that's how people really are. Not good as Ozu san's other movies ,some scenes were really nice so i recommend this.
I liked the Friendship arc in this movie,the unlikely friendship between alcoholic but honest doctor n a local thug who is dying,it was enjoyable n catchy at first then it got unnecessarily dramatic n very boring after the arrival of Okada.Disappointing
Went in without any idea about the plot n surprisingly it was a really good n tragic movie. Very different from other romance movies at that time. I wish Kisuke was a little sensible person. Even if i hate rapists the rapist in this movie was worst kind, poor Tamae just wanted a little help n he couldn't even do that.
Even if someone is like me who doesn't like to watch documentaries much, one will find this really fascinating n entertaining.Kenzo is a man of justice n nothing stops him,he is daring n wants to know the truth even after so many years. He is a violent fellow ,i actually felt bad n awkward when the fight occured between old men n everything went back to normal like nothing happened,only if u were in North India dude . Japanese really are pleasant n peaceful people regardless of their creepiness sometimes.
I loved Ryohei's character in this movie as a kid n as an adult,he was a sweet,mature n silent child who loved n blindly followed his father ,his silent cries n accepting whatever his father says without a fuss ,it also made me feel sad for him.We don't see such relationship n dependence between parents n child today that's why I love Yasujiro Ozu's movies as they are simple n easy to connect with.
On the other hand ,i only have one complaint or doubt i understand why the father quit his job as a teacher but I don't get why did he kept neglecting his child, although he did love him he never showed him where it was obvious how much Ryohei wants to be with him,he could have found a job anywhere.Maybe Ozu wants to show the audience how great,high valued n strick the father is who sticks to his principles?
Slow, comfortable, dull , low budget movie with simple plot where not a lot is happening .
The two main characters who dont know each other come together when their common friend doesn't show up for a trip. I personally enjoyed the movie bcz of how these two established their bond n cooperated throughout their journey n met several people n random events.
It doesn't have any comedy that makes u roll on the floor but its still awkwardly humorous n amusing.Good acting.
If someone really loves psychological concept like this I highly recommend Kaiba:2008 ,watch n enjoy this beautiful sci-fi anime.
