Loved It? Hated It? No, I Liked It.

Rating: Null/10 (12 June 2004)

**SPOILERS** Interesting movie. Lots of looks and comments to be interpreted. Lots of things to wonder about. I really enjoyed the look into Japan. How sad, though, that a whole society is trying to emulate the USA. It looked like "Las Vegas, the Country".
I feel the movie's whole point was to provoke thought. Is this how it is; is this how it will be? Murray was very good at playing the role of Bob Harris very low key.
I was pleased that Coppola didn't fall into the usual old/young man/woman have sex thing. But I was disappointed that Murray's character ended up having sex with the lounge singer. Why? Must every man express weariness with his marriage by sleeping with somebody? It did absolutely nothing for Harris except give him the typical morning after embarrassment.
The movie is definitely worth two hours of your life.
