Cyborg She (2008)
5/10
New Rule: Most Japanese comedy characters must be idiots or jerks
1 January 2023
The title says all. The young man behaves like an idiot; his college friend is a jerk; his teacher is another idiot; the owner of the restaurant and the police officers are utterly dumb. The cyborg girl behaves like a spoiled brat, grown in the jungle.

Ok. This is what Japanese comedy writers believe is funny?

In addition: the cyborg girl is gorgeous, but the boy never tries to convince her of having sex (which would be reasonable and romantic, anyway)?

Perhaps actors were under the impression that this was a mute film, so they have to exaggerate gestures and grimaces. They move like Japanese costumed superheroes battling a Godzilla type monster. They give the term expressionism a new height.

Not funny for anybody over 5 years of age.
