Audience Member The 4th film in the series starts off well, but with a new director in tow, the film becomes a little disjointed. This seriously should have been 2 movies, because that's what it seems like. It just seemed like watching 2 episodes of a TV series back to back and it was not like a cinematic story, which should be the expectation. But the actors are now comfortable in their roles, even if the story doesn't gel together. 1st story, Torajiro wins big money at the racetrack and decides to come back and buy his uncle and aunt's family a trip to Hawaii, promising not to embarass Japanese society while over there. Unfortunately, the travel agency was a scam and the money is stolen, so Tora tries to find a way to fix things, with hilarious consequences. But that's just the first half. In the 2nd, a schoolteacher moves into the uncle's house, who Tora-san of course falls in love with... Guess how that ends up. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
