Audience Member it cures something in my heart. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Slow film but is perfect in many ways and it's a sad tale about loneliness. Im saying a generalization but in the Japanese cinema is were i find more than the called "slice of life" movies and a master in those kind of films is Hiroki. The performances of Sinobu Terajima and Etsushi Toyokawa are simply amazing and moving, (the scene in the karaoke one of the best). This film centers his plot in Yuko and her problems with depression and her relationship with men, specially the weird bond that makes with his cousin. Actually this film remind me a lot of Antonioni because a lot of things happens but you don't know if the main problem was solved, or even if there was a problem. The movie end is as depressing as astonishing and you end up having that void in the stomach, that feeling that could make you believe that everything was in vain, but it wasn't is just that some movies are pretty much like life itself, and doesn't have a proper answer or way to end it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member The soundtrack is great indeed. The acting is as well. but I thought the ending was too much... and that long phone call at the end to spare screening time....???? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Soundtrack in this film is brilliant. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny and depressing at the same time. Very life-like. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member being more open to see more inside this world Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
