Departures

Rating: 4/10 (28 September 2017)

Departures isn't going to be my favorite movie of all times, in fact I would place in towards the bottom of my list. The movie depicts a young married man who lost his job as a cello player in an orchestra, but he needs to find a job soon. An NK departure agent isn't a glamorous job, in fact it's a job that nobody really wants. First off the main character, Diago doesn't look like the right person for the job, but that kinda is the point. To me it just doesn't look right and I think it would be better if Diagonal was a little older. My second problem with the film is the fact that it was so slow. There wasn't any action and day in and day out, they just went to funerals. I know that's what the film is really about, but it would be nice if they could put in a little bit more action.
