Tomatometer 3 Reviews Popcornmeter 0 Ratings
Inspired by Kensuke Ide's 2021 concept album Strolling Planet '74 -- for which Kensuke Ide's band transformed into the fictitious 70s glam rock group Exne Kedy and the Poltergeists -- Plastic tells the story of teenagers Jun and Ibuki's search for the legendary rock band 40 years after their farewell concert. As teenage Jun arrives in Nagoya as a transfer student after failing to sign a record deal, his busking of his favorite Exne Kedy song catches the eye of fellow fan Ibuki. The pair soon falls in love over their shared taste, but as adult responsibilities mount, they drift apart... until Exne Kedy announces a reunion tour.

Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Mildly engaging, slow-burning and engrossing. Oct 4, 2024 Full Review Ethan Padgett Film Threat Plastic is worth watching to gain a deeper and more introspective understanding of today’s generation. Rated: 8/10 Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Fred Barrett In Review Online There are numerous near-misses and multiple chance encounters punctuating the film’s runtime, but in Miyazaki’s hands, these don’t feel contrived, cruel, or in any way “cosmic,” but rather as true to life.
