A lonely actor and a married woman fall in love, and return to their normal life.

Rating: 8/10 (30 April 2005)

Lost is translation isn't actually about translation at all. Yes, every culture has its quirks, and so does the Japanese, and Bill Murray (an American movie star) feels out of place in Tokyo as much as a Japanese star would feel in New York. The movie portrays this fact just fine, but what it does with sublime excellence is the subtle and gentle love story of Murray and Scarlett Johansson. They fall in love, and in an unusual break with tradition decide to go back to their normal life.
The music is really great and performances are good. Overall its a bit slow moving movie but has the feel good factor on its side. Its subtle and gentle and definitely worth a watch. I personally gave it a 8/10.
