The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
A simple, heartwarming story of a loyal dog that waits for his master after his master's untimely death. The dog: an Akita. The story is real and took place in Japan in the early 20th Century.
I watced it and I was bored. It doesn't deserve 8,1 IMDB. It is long. Very long. I started sleeping in 45. Minutes.If you wanna sleep, It is best choice for you.
Every time I watch this film it touches my heart! The true story of Hachi the dog its definitely one of the best Japanese stories and I believe last year The Statue of hachi was replace with hachi and his owner together! That was such a beautiful thing to behold!I totally recommend this film!
If you want to cry for the sake of crying, then watch this movie. You know it's going to be sad, and sad it is.There were moments towards the end where small plot details made no sense, but I'm not going to spoil the movie for you. It seems like the plot was made that way it is in order to make the movie as sad as possible, and it seems most of the crying audience don't realize the flaws, perhaps because their eyes are too wet.Apart from that, it is a well-made movie, and it has a really nice doggo, so it still warrants a 7/10.
