GamerTab That was an excellent one.
LouHomey From my favorite movies..
Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
George Parker "Tokyo Eyes" tells of a 17 year old Japanese girl who falls in like with a man being hunted by her big bro who is a cop. This lame flick is about 50% filler and 50% talk, talk, and more talk. You'll get to see the less than stellar cast of three as they talk on the bus, talk and play video games, talk and get a haircut, talk and walk and walk and talk, talk on cell phones, hang out and talk, etc. as you read subtitles waiting for something to happen. The thin wisp of a story is not sufficient to support a film with low end production value, a meager cast, and no action, no romance, no sex or nudity, no heavy drama...just incessant yadayadayada'ing. (C-)
dtt This movie was something that struck me almost as powerful as F***ing Åmål (Show me Love), which I saw the week before. It's a really sweet lovestory, with the one of the best endings I've ever seen, it has to be seen, it's unexplainable. The "shooting-guy" is just too cool, he designs videogames and has thousands of 12"-clubrecords. The girl is too pretty, it's almost annoying. The music in the film is so fat and so suggestive and most important, so F***ING swell and trendy and perfect it's unbelievable. And, of course, you can't buy it with english text anywhere on the net. Some b**ody sod stole my videotape with it. In a bl***in hospital!!!Anyway, if you ever get a chance to see this movie, do so. It's strange, but if you're normally intelligent, that wouldn't be too much of a problem.
TOX When I saw the first scenes I had other Japanese movies ( e.g. Hanabi ) in my mind. I was somewhat disappointed because this is a French love film more like "Salt on our Skin" or Episodes of the Three Colors Trilogy. This means no violence, no action. In the end I came to like the film for exactly this fact.My recommendation: watch this film with the one you love, so you have got something to do during the lengthy parts.
mandy.rigtering I've seen this movie four days ago and it still bothers me. This movie does not only give you an outline of what it must be to live in Tokio in the 90ties(as well as in any other big city), but transmits the atmosphere 100%! The actors do not talk much and still everything is said. The music is absolutely well chosen. I went out of the cinema with a feeling I never had before after watching a movie. It's like being understood for the first time. You must see this film! And if you like Takeshi, watch Takeshi's castle. If your neighbors complain about you laughing, invite them and they will understand.
