I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
...the plot is predictable and was done hundreds of times; of course most things are done before, but this movie has not a fresh approach about it. Most actors except Inoue san give the impression that fit better on TV series than belong to a movie. Of course we have the effort and the sacrifice for a good cause as a premise. That effort is very well appreciated in Japan, even more if it s done by a group of persons.-The camera work is too cliché even the music at some point is bland.I think there s a fine line between something very good that touch you deep and a weekend afternoon pass time movie. So if you are interested in Cinema, this is not for you; if you have that bag full of pop corn ready and the attention here and there, well, watch it.
