Unconventionally moving, touching.

Rating: 9/10 (22 February 2009)

Bill Murray and Scarlett Johanson were born to play the lead roles. The plot is very simple that you can believe it could happen to you. I mean, when your life is not at it's best moment and when you feel sad on the inside you just want to take a breath spiritually.
"Lost In Translation" displays the story between a married man and father of a son actor that travels to Tokyo in order to film a Whiskey commercial. There he finds out that he's not the best father around and that he could change his life when telling the truth about his feelings. There he meets sweet sexy Charlotte, who has been married for 2 years but feels lonely, underrated, and will even ask herself what is going on with her life.
I can relate to this movie because both lead characters have problems with insomnia so they visit different places destined for insomniac people. Bob and Charlotte meet after eye contact and walking at each other under casual circumstances.
They start a beautiful relationship that will be carried out by great, moving performances that go from happiness, sadness, frustration, inner fears and even future plans.
The acting is the best part of the movie because through the actor's eyes you can feel what they feel. Bill Murray portrays one of those characters that Heaven sent. He is just spectacular and I dug everything about him. Scarlett Johanson demonstrates she's not only about the super exquisite looks; she's a great actress and their relationship is one of the best I've seen in a long time.
This is a memorable movie that will leave you breathless and with a mix of sadness and satisfaction I haven't felt in a while. To be, this is one of the best romantic situations movie that will pave the way for a new kind of cinema.
I'm glad I finally watched it.
