This big man, who knew at a glance that he was a big man, directed and acted such a Japanese-style comedy that conformed to the traditional standards at the dawn of the new century may be trying to reposition himself while giving It was an unusually refreshing feeling for viewers who were accustomed to his smash hits (an impression from a movie poster).
Although this is the first movie I've seen of him, he doesn't give me that feeling less than it does to the rest of the audience. A big thank you to the director who was so blunt at least in this film, and I hope he forgives me for enjoying the goodness he brings without spending money on his intellectual property.
Masamune's world is not so beautiful, is it? The poverty and loneliness brought by his father's death, his mother's departure and the travel of his friends finally made him one day decide to seek justice from the world. But just as Forrest Gump said, God, the old man, often acted unusually. He did not give this child the justice he imagined to his mother and his imagination, but gave him this headache, laughter, and helpless Kijiro .
How much has this sloppy and willful guy made Zheng Nan, a kid who doesn't know how to hitch a ride, suffer? But how much damage is this child who is so young but has experienced the perversion, abandonment and terror of the adult world spared?
Of course, there is always hurt, and the sadness on a child's face is a scratch from a less-than-ideal side of the world. However, the perseverance and clumsiness of the Kikujiros, or the persevering clumsiness, also made the children smile beautifully.
It's hard to forget the episode where the last four adults went to great lengths to toss themselves for the joy of Zhengnan.
If I were standing as a man right now, I probably wouldn't see anything interesting in these games that would make me happy like him. Perhaps, this just means that my childhood has long been "disappeared in both places".
However, I am an audience who observes from an all-around perspective. I know what sense of responsibility and hard work these four big men have to bear in exchange for that hearty laughter, and I also know that they have also gained their own happiness, and this happiness comes from children of happiness. So my father couldn't help but smile, and I knew that, like me, his smile wasn't just for gratification.
The world the child faces is filled with beauty and sorrow. Just as Hisaishi boss's music tells it. So, be brave, be strong, and be optimistic. This is probably Kijiro, or Kitano Takeshi, or rather what the world wants to tell Masao and us.
For the reasons above: Recommended for every overage child, in other words, almost every adult.
