Worse than a B Movie this is a "cult" film

So first lets talk about the acting (which usually I can forgive) but this was worse then watching the end of the Faith no more Epic video. And the fish delivered it lines better. Stunted dialog and unnatural interactions between the actors.

Music by trent reznor...if you are looking for Pretty hate machine this aint it.

Action..was a jumbled mess of cgi in incomprehensible movement coupled with artistic shots to convey the actors feelings with out dialog.

Story..This is sci fi..so take story, especially origin stories with a grain of salt. BUT THIS WAS CRAP. No motivation from bad guy, other than he is a nut job. Dads a pervert who had a baby with an android...WAIT Wuuut! ..anatomically impossible Mr. Garabaldi but you can try...

Oh and iron gun flesh is genetic. Just..what?!

This drama tackles the theme of "Reading the Air" and doing your best to not anger or upset the people around you. Go with the flow, even if you don't want to, just to make other's happy.

Nagi after an incident with her boyfriend (a Coworker) decides to reset her life. Donates all over belongings and moves into a run down apartment building with cheap rent and only her futon.

This is where she finds the true meaning of life ...as corny and cliche as that sounds. Real connections with real people, and the rewards and consequences of those connections.

This did not hit home for me as it did some reviewers, as by the time I was Nagi's age I was married with 2 kids : )and very much not a people pleaser (except at work, my occupation requires it). Still I found the drama very enjoyable and loved the old lady that lived upstairs. Oh and that cutie next door..I must find more of his dramas.

This is a must see of 2019

I watched this as part of the watch challenge for 2018 and it was a movie my husband had wanted to see because of the sword choreography being talked up in reviews.

Story: They kept saying the guy was evil, but MOST of the things he did were shady, but not evil per se.  He is asked to comprise his ideals as a samurai, doesn't work well in a group, and has distain for a woman that lowered herself to save her husband and hates him.  If a movie is telling you one thing, but showing you another, it gets really really old really really quick.  Was he Paladin Samurai? by no means.

Acting: The lead does well with seeming to be devoid of emotion, without being devoid of acting.   There was no time when the immersion was broken by bad acting, and Mifune, who has a cameo part in this, does an excellent job.

The Ending.....what do we say about the ending....I was supposed to be part one of a trilogy that never got made.  When it ended we thought the moving was buffering....it wasn't, it was just done.

This way though you can give it a happy ending...or not if you like.

This show was difficult for me to complete and I skipped a lot of the "Main plot" just to follow the part I was slightly interested.  This was my first Aiba Misaki drama with him as the lead that I have watched so I wanted to be fair.  The ending was satisfactory to the plot line I was following but It took a long, grueling 11 episodes to get there.

To be honest I dislike this style of detective show (both I have dropped are of this format Meitantei no Okite and MONSTERS not even Matsuda and Yamapi could make me finish them). If you like this sort of thing though the the acting is well done and the music is Arashi so of course its good.
