Intelligent and ingenious humour is Bill Murray's strongest weapon

Rating: 9/10 (19 April 2006)

I must say, that this film has been really great refreshment after all the absurd comedies that uses forced and framed "funny" situations and sketches. Its simple plot is greatly convoluted with smilling dialogues and situations. Also Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray with their cynical and satiric personalities fits in whole scenario and shifts whole film on a higher level. Some may say that there's too much of Japanese parody and call it a racism (maybe, in extreme way) but i must say that it's more true than reality.
Lost in translation is more than good comedy, it's also about human relations, love, happiness and last but not least about people's stupidity and ignorance.
Concluded, it's very reflective but also amusing and i think everyone who has high movie rank will enjoy this film.
