Audience Member Japanese sci-fi comedy as Mayumi goes back in time (via a bright yellow washing machine) to rescue her mother Mariko, who's trying to prevent present-day money meltdown by stopping a politican in the 90's from bursting the economic bubble Cue jokes about mobiles, dance fashions, body-con fashions and spend-spend-spend and it all adds up to a silly and very entertaining film, even if you don't get all the Japanese jokes and cameos. <img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/io9/2008/11/picture_1.jpg"> .

XD Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/16/10 Full Review Audience Member A really good time travel comedy with a young female following her mother back in time to 1990 to save Japan's economy before the bubble burst. Instead of a telephone box or even a car to go back to the past they use a washing machine by Hitachi!!! The filmmakers faithfully recreate the Japan of the early 90's from the music to the clothes. A good little twist at the end as well.

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I think I saw my first '90s nostalgia movie -- only it was for Japanese '90s nostalgia. LOL Not a bad little time travel movie that takes place before and after their economic bubble. Makes ya think what we might be in for with our bank failures and current credit crunch.
