Beautiful work. Definitely a head film meant to make you think. It captures the feeling of being in a place you don't want to be in; and by place i don't mean Japan, but rather social situations and relationships that jibe.
In a word: AWESOME.

I agree, Bill Murray was funny and both he and Scarlet Johansen played the parts superbly. Despite her wooden appearence on the oscars, Coppala has made a great debut. I doubt we'll have long to wait until more of her movies get oscars and she gets a best director.

Technically it's not her debut. She directed Virgin Suicides before this, along with the short Lick the Star.

Sucks to be me I guess.

It's an even better movie if you can understand Japanese.

It was a good movie, and not just for the gratuitous butt-shot in the title sequence, either.

Okay, I think we should be talking about more than just the booty. Kay? Kay.

It was good, albeit overrated.
Have a very nice day.
