A movie that falls into place once you're done watching
This movie was somewhat hard to place in terms of rating, but overall I think it did good.The story revolves around comedians and their attempts at becoming successful. It feels more like a slice of life peek into their lives rather than the movie having a singular narrative during its course as it spans over many years.
Masaki Suda has really shown proclivity for roles that portray characters which struggle to do what they love and find their place in this world. There are moments where it feels like he's speaking from his own personal experience and those emotions are really well conveyed.
I would've loved to see more on some other characters and where they ended up and how their life turned out. I feel like the movie is lacking closure, but I also feel that it's designed to be that way - as long as you're alive, you can try time and time again.
If I had to explain it in a more direct way, I'd say that this movie makes you expect an apple - and when you bite into it, it turns out to be sweeter than anticipated and you think to yourself "Aaah, this is a nice apple." It's not the best meal of your life - but how many of your meals are? The movie accepts itself. And you should too.
