Lost effort

Rating: 2/10 (30 December 2005)

This movie is a waste of your time. I kept waiting for the story to take off. There is no content  the director has resorted to inserting cheap porn to consume the reels. I had heard that it is supposedly fun. Instead, its tragic. The movie begins with a butt shot of Scarlett Johansson. That's the movie's highlight. Honestly! None of the translation jokes and the digs on Japanese culture are funny. The only silver lining on attempted humor was the portrayal of Barbie-like model/actor. I don't get it why this movie did well  audiences nowadays are either stupid or very forgiving. The director is abusing the privilege of being the child of a famous director.
