A very talented,fabulous actor who belongs to the flower children group of age,create Japan's new cinema scene,also an amazing rock singer called kenichi hagiwara finally played a japanese typical workholicked business man at the age of 41,this film shows what the real family men should be,what they work so hard each day for for long hours,and why it's got to be so expensive and so crowded to just to go home,and talk to the audience,'wait a second,what are we really doing??Do we really enjoy our lives???' A heartwarming home comedy.

This movie captured so much of the joys and hardships of a real family man trying to serve his company, wife and children, and parents, in modern Japan. Having lived in Japan for a bit, it seemed quite on the mark. The frustrating moments were often quite hysterically funny, sometimes quite painful. A wonderful movie, even for someone with no Japan background, capturing the struggles and joys of trying to be a man with heart.

This movie is a more of an adventure family film in japanese with english subtitles. If you like Takeshi Kitano films or just japanese films i think you will like this.
