Great Japanese movie, 24 November 2004
Author: Luis Moreno Campos from Lisbon, Portugal

This great Japanese movie is for people that have the hability to watch non-American movies, non-Hollywood movies. Not that it is slow, boring, cult, or anything, is just because this film contains very subtle references to Japanese culture. Anyway this is a very basic script filmed in a very poetic way. The film has everything: emotion, action, and drama. The film has centered its action in life of a 17-year old Japanese boy that drinks whiskey at night alone in his very particular room. The drama around the mess that his family bonds have become, is the driver for an astonishing snowball of events. He won't list his favourite things to the girl that follows his action days, but in the end the list goes on and on and keeps emotioning the viewer until a point of... Very good movie.
