I have been watching 2 directors' YouTube weekly program and happened to met them in person last week when they had outdoor speech for this movie's promotion. Till then I did not mean to come over to watch on the very first day of roadshow yesterday which I did. Movie is entertaining and yet let us think about our democracy and election system. We laughed at such comical views but came to think about what we are laughing at. Is it cynicism or desertion on ourselves ? Movie contains unforgettable moments like when we all Japanese learned ex-prime minister Shinzo Abe's shocking death and people's raw reactions. It is highlight of the latter part of the movie. I personally hope more theaters will play this movie nation wide or even international market but basically this is for us, people who are living and having voting right in Japan.
