Sû-chan, Mai-chan, Sawako-san (2012)
FAILURE
I like this kind of movies, I liked ''Venus Talk'' and I believe Japanese movies are
better than similar Korean ones, except thriller, but this one is something beyond my understanding. Three too pathetic main characters - and for absolutely no real reason - is too much. My 6, only because the three ladies are very beautiful and capable actresses.
¡Yallah! ¡Yallah! (2017)
Good intentions but poor execution
... but worth watching it, as everything about israel - palestinian unsolved problem. You have to know even not too serious information in order to
decide what's your opinion about it.
Konkurîto (2004)
Unacceptable
As, and for any other unacceptable, morally, movie, i have only one for rating. Even one gram of sympathy or understanding for rapists is beyond any acceptance.
Yomei (2008)
IT'S FOR ZERO
I'll never accept a movie with this attitude. The first and last purpose in women's life isn't giving birth, but living happily with or without children. A male world isn't the only possible world, and it's very disappointing when even women believe in this kind of world.
Zettai reido: Mikaiketsu jiken tokumei sôsa - special (2011)
UNACCEPTABLE
This is another unacceptable TV-movie. The first was ''TSUMA NO TONDA TOKKOHEI'' for its nationalism and racism. Now we have sympathy for baby-buyers if they are rich enough to use poor emigrates as tubes for baby-production. I'm from Europe, but I admire Japanese civilization and especially Japanese cinematography, but these two TV-movies are the worst representatives you can find.
Kuroi fukuin (2014)
Absolutely excelent
It's a pity that it was TV movie. A brave attitude against religious sects and of course Takeshi Kitano was perfect in his acting.
Hana-chan no misoshiru (2014)
Simply disgusting
It's a pitty that Ryoko Hirosue and Mana Ashida were part of this movie. This isn't
drama but a praise to male chauvinism of the worst kind, hidden under modest and kind behavior.
Aozora êru (2016)
TWO ARE FAIR
I give 2 points because of Tao Tsuchiya (cute as always). This movie has two messages and I don't know which of them is the worst. First, the important thing is to achieve the guy his goals (no kisses until he wins), her winning is less important. Second, we have to suppress our feelings until we succeed in something, excuse me but if we can do this, these, are not true feelings.
(In our life, there is no period without critical goals, and I ensure you more important than a high school baseball match)
Rapurasu no majo (2018)
GOOD ENOUGH
Two interesting hours, an excellent idea, as for the other viewers, there are tones of american movies, with a lot of car-chasing, shooting and other similar ''woo'' things. Why bothering with this kind of movies?
Todos lo saben (2018)
Excellent script
I disagree with the majority of viewers, I think it was an excellent story with a
remarkable character, Paco, the son of the maid, who gives everything when
he loves, and rejects Laura's excuses for her reasons of abandoning him (there
is no excuse if you love somebody). In addition the realistic relations in this
fallen landlords family, and the relations of the family with the ex-workers, is another point for the movie. Asghar Farhadi was good for another time, even outside Iran (don't forget ''Le passe'', midway between West and Iran). This is not as good as ''A separation'' but certainly one of the best movies in 2018.
Na jian feng kuang de xiao shi jiao ai qing (2016)
Avoid it
I'm sure you can find something better than spending 90 minutes for this ''movie''.
acting/0 - directing/0 - screen/0, 2 stars because I'm a very good person and for the first 6.30 min.
I Love You, Too (2015)
Korean is much better
I recommend the Korean version of the same story. I have high respect for Ismene
Ting for her Spring Flower role in ''The Peach Blossom Land (1992)'' but this time I prefer Koreans in ''Liar (2004)'' by Kim Gyeong-Hyeong.
La-i-eo (2004)
Much better
It's much better than Chinese version ''I love you, too'' (2015) by Taiwanese
Ismene Ting. I think there is a stage play with the same story too. Does anyone
know if there is a plagiarism, and from whom ? I don't know Chinese or Korean
in order to know if anyone of them mention the original story.
Huang yan da bao zha (2016)
4 FOR MAVIS
Without Mavis Pan, 1 is a very friendly rating. For your information, half an hour
American/Chinese (no car crashing) car chasing.
Gokudô daisensô (2015)
Absolutely Entertainment
Takashi Miike thank you for the past two hours.
Pure entertainment.
It must be a lesson for movie students.
Hva vil folk si (2017)
It's not a ''white man'' propaganda
Absolutely recommended. I had my doubts, but the last minutes of the movie (from the wedding proposal and afterwards) and after reading what Iram Haq
said in her interviews, I was convinced. I am very suspicious about this sudden interest ''all that love'' for Muslim women in western societies, but I feel this
movie is sincere. I suggest, for a fair rating, to read Iram Haq's interviews before it.
Eitoman - Subete no sabishii yoru no tame ni (1992)
Not RoboCop
If you want shining metal armor and good special effects,this is not for you, search for something else. But it is much better than RoboCop (mr Verhoeven
this trip to USA was a huge mistake). It's a poor cousin of Ridley Scott;s two B.R.s (Blade Runner & Black Rain). Director Y.Horiuchi was a great surprise for me.
I'm looking forward to find another work of him, I want to find out if this was a comet or he was an unknown (to me) good director.
The Way Home 2 (2016)
You won't loose your time
One of the best zombie movies. A real surprise from a web movie. The realistic behavior of the movie characters is one of the good point of it.
Uchu kara no messeji (1978)
StarWars in Japan
Equally stupid as SW, and dubbing made things worst. I never avoid watching a movie up to last minute, even stupid ones like this, so i had to break it in four parts in order to be able to finish it.
Fuk sau che ji sei (2010)
HK surprise
It was a surprise form me. If you change the language and the names of actors / director, this is a japan movie. HK movie (i don't like the word industry) is not
as it was before in past century, so this was a very pleasant (what a word for this movie) surprise.
Noruwei no mori (2010)
Speechless
I don't have words to describe or criticize it. 99.99% movies based on novels are
failures, but this one... It's not fair to give 10 stars. Every moment of this movie
worth its own star.
Ten no Chasuke (2015)
Nothing special
A good idea (actually novel), good acting, but not one of SABU's best moments.
M (2006)
I liked it
Only Japanese psychosynthesis can give us movies like this one. In a strange (for
us) way, SM in Japanese movies isn't perversion at all, it's simply another kind of
love, absolutely natural in the movie-story we asked to watch.
Shinjuku suwan (2015)
8 or 10 ?
This movie is not much ''Sion Sono'' , so i have two ratings, one for what i was
expecting from him (8), and one for the movie ignoring who is the director (10).
Jump (2003)
Highly Recommended
Ignoring a bit disappointment for the ending, it's an excellent work of Masao
Takeshita and especially Taizo Harada. If you liked it too, i recommend two other
Japanese movies. ''Be with you'' by Nobuhiro Doi and ''Himitsu'' by Yojiro Takita.
It's the Japanese way to say a lot of things using the form of ''romance'' movies.
