Lifted (2006)
cute and funny actions of aliens
This is a very funny movie. In the movie, aliens appear on the stage and try to kidnap a man on the earth. There are so many enjoyable points in this movie. For example, the appearance of the aliens is not as scary as often appears on a TV program. And they also have feelings like humans, such as sadness, or happiness . This has little back ground music and they don't speak language, so it is so quiet. But I don't feel tired thanks to their actions. They act so funnily in the movie. Such actions make have friendly feeling with them.
The most enjoyable scene for me is the last scene. The mistake of the control of UFO is really funny. It is worth seeing.
Gasman (1997)
this is a difficult, but interesting movie
It is difficult for me to understand this movie perfectly. This seems to be European movie. This is the story of separation of a family. There are two impressive scenes in this movie. Both are taken on a railroad. It looks as if the family decides the parting in the first scene and they actually do in the second scene. The sound of this movie is so quiet and calm. It has little back ground music. But such a silence draws me into this movie. The season seems to be winter. It looks so cold. The combination of coldness and silence makes this movie so sorrowful. The content is a lot of the daughter's viewpoints. This allows the viewer to see parting from the view of a young girl. I think the important point of this movie is parting. Parting is always sad. This movie symbolizes it.
Knick Knack (1989)
cute actions of the toys
The characteristic point of this movie is that it uses the computer graphic. I'm surprised to know that this movie was created in 1989. It is because that the quality of this graphic is so high that it doesn't look so old.
There are so many enjoyable points in this movie. The action of a toy of snowman contains a lot of fun. He tries to go out from his cage in many ways, the ways are points worthy of note.
The snowman's blunder phone character is also a good point. I have a good feeling about its cute character.
This movie is very short but I can have a lot of fun in a short time. So many ideas of humor are put into this time. I think this is the reason for the quality of this movie.
Three Days in Kamakura (2012)
this is a very moving and warming movie
This is a very impressive movie. This movie describes the days of a foreign man and his Japanese wife. In the three days, they take care of a young half-Japanese boy. This movie moves me. In the scene that the man decides to call police, they learn reciprocal importance again. This is the most impressive scene for me. I think the man felt loneliness for a long time, even with his wife, so he wanted someone who stays with him. But the word she said to him makes him know that his wife is always with him. They have some troubles in their life, such as discord with neighbor. But in the last phase, they have a key to resolve such a problem. This scene describes the appearance of a ray of hope in their difficult life. In terms of the sound, the ending music is so beautiful and moves me. The music fit in with this moving movie perfectly. I can finish watching it with a very comfortable feeling.
Otousan no tabako (2007)
good people and peace in family
The Errand is the Japanese film that deals with a family whose is seriously sick and he seems unrecoverable. In spite of sickness, he can't quit smoking. But he can't move even a little. So he lets his daughter go to buy tobacco as an errand. Her name is Sara. At first, her mother keeps her from giving the tobacco she bought to her father and all the tobacco she bought are thrown away. But while her mother is out, her father asks her to get tobacco again and she accepts his wish. She goes to buy them but due to an out of order vending machine and the owner, she is at a loss. But finally, a high-school student gives her tobacco. She brings it to her father, but he doesn't smoke it and the family has a peaceful time.
This movie describes a lot of things. What is impressive for me is the kindness and peacefulness. The scene of kindness is that a high-school girl gives Sara a tobacco. It tells us that the existence of good people in the difficult world. The scene of peacefulness is the last scene. It tells us the goodness of family.
Fish Out of Water (2005)
good people and bad people
Fish out of water is a film that deals with a man who rows a boat every day. He seems to commute by his boat. One day, a woman who looks like an office lady visits him and gets on his boat for her commuting. The nest day, a very fat man that is her colleague comes with her and he also gets on the same boat. The following day, some colleagues also come and do the same. The first man has too trouble to stand in rowing his boat such as its heaviness and their rudeness. So since that day, he finishes commuting by boat and changes his commuting way. The new way is swimming. Since the change, no one troubles him and he can enjoy his commuting.
This is a very funny movie. In this movie, a lot of bad people appear. And it describes the difficulty of a good person with them.
2+2=5 (2005)
this movie is worth seeing
2+2=5 is a very suggestive movie. Like a tragedy in this movie, under a strong power, the wrong answer is not wrong, it depends on the power-holder.
In my opinion, this case fits the situation in the countries of totalitarianism in the age of World War 2. The scene of execution of a boy reminds me of such things. By seeing it as a clear television picture, I can feel it more and more realistically. When I consider how this happened in our real life, I really feel horrible. In such a morbid situation, we must always be scared to be killed by making a subtle mistake. We really need to prevent this from happening and be aware of such a stream. Like this, this movie makes me think a lot of things. By thinking in the respect, this is a very important movie.
Paperman (2012)
very romantic movie
This is a very romantic and enjoyable movie. This movie deals with the love of a male office worker.
There are so many interesting points in this movie. For example, in this movie, papers play a role of cupid of love. This is the characteristic point of this movie. The papers he throws move as if they actually had lives and tries to make the man and the woman meet. This scene is so fun and the action of papers looks so cute. I'm amazed by this enjoyable direction. I found the reason of this movie's title in this scene. It matches with the content of this movie well.
Regarding to the music in this movie, the quiet and fine music keeps until the scene that the papers move. But at the same time as they move, the dynamic and happy music starts. This is the most impressive point for me. The music makes the scene more amazing. This is also great direction I found.
The Crush (2010)
Youth and Purity
This is a story of a boy who gives his heart to his teacher in elementary school. But he knows she will marry a man who doesn't look so good. So he decides to have a duel with the man to make them part.
This movie deals with young boy's love. He is so young that he doesn't know that there are lines that people should not cross. His youth and purity makes him act like this.
The action of the child actor is very good. Especially, when he points the pistol at the man, I also imagined that it's real like him. It is because that his eyes are so serious. His eyes make me feel so. Such a good action can't be done by an average child actor.
The Lunch Date (1989)
This movie tells us interesting things
This is a slightly old movie. The leading part in this movie is an old woman. It describes the incident happened in a café in a station.
This is a very interesting movie. It makes me have a lot of fun in this short time. An impressive part in this movie is the scene that a stranger eats the old woman's salad. I thought that he is such a rude man. But in the last part of the movie, I changed completely my mind, the action of the man is so kind and gentle. Firstly, I thought that she was so unfortunate as to miss her train and deprived of her lunch, but my opinion was wrong. This movie teaches me that, at a glance, what is not good for me isn't always so. Another point of view makes me feel good and helps me when I'm in a bad situation.
Whacked (1998)
connection between golf and the happening
Whacked!
Whacked! is a film that seems a little bit old. The story deals with happenings in the city. In a city, one day, a lot of people suddenly lose consciousness and fall down on the street. The incidents were a man's doing who has worked in a golf center as a golf ball gatherer. He gathers the balls during his work-time, and after finishes his job, he takes some of the balls for his practice and plays golf on a very tall building in the city. He hits a ball with his club, the ball flies away and hits a pedestrian's head. He or she blacks out and are carried by an ambulance. This is the cause of the incidents happened in the city and content of this film.
At first, I supposed that this is a kind of suspense movie. But when I finished watching it, I saw that my supposition was wrong, it was a comedy movie. The story made me laugh and have a lot of fun. we can see no connection between golf and the happening in the city firstly, but as the story goes along, we can find its link. This process is so enjoyable.
Father and Daughter (2000)
Very Beautiful Movie
Father and daughter.
Father and daughter is a film that has little color looks like old movies. It seems to be hand-drawn by pen.
The content of this film is the life story of a girl who lost her father when she was young. For a while after she lost her father, she goes to the place she parted from him. But the older she grows, the less she visits there. I think it means her loneliness become decreased.
The music of this film is so beautiful. The melody of it makes me feel lonely and nostalgic. A lot of this music consists of piano sounds. And such sounds also help this film become more beautiful.
