Review of Japan

Japan (2002)
9/10
Away from the classic Hollywood film, this is a film that invites you to feel.

Japón is far away from the classic Hollywood film. It is a film with a simple structure inviting you to feel. It is not about budgets or star systems. It portraits a man that needs to think about what he wants and why. From your seat, you won't see anything he doesn't see, you have the same information because it is not about information either. Again, it is about felling and enjoying a journey in a distant world, a world deep inside Mexico, distant even from most Mexicans. However, if you were not willing to spend 2 hours of long shots, and very little dialogue, I would not recommend. If you are, please forget about the popcorn and enjoy. If you speak Spanish, it will be even better.
