Sato-Ke no Choushoku, Suzuki-Ke no Yuushoku (2013)

this is an excellent but difficult filmー yes, it is about unconventional lifestyles, gender issues and these are especially problematic in Japan as until really recently this was not accepted as even human、 however after watching was this even the main point of the film I wondered? yes it is alright for adults to have choices however unconventional to their society, but also they must be honest with their children。for me this was perhaps the real point of the film。 my only criticism is the ending which for me was just too neatly tied together and especially the cute fade at the very end to suggest something like：” even after all this weird stuff you can still have a normal life” ~ for me that undermines the seriousness of the whole rest of the film, I know it is fiction but it does not have to be an unhappy ending to be a convincing ending。this is not intended to depreciate the merits of the film I just feel it was too easy option to leave this as the final take away〜

" Sato-Ke no Choushoku, Suzuki-Ke no Yuushoku " explored some interesting themes about family and family ties.

The movie - special, was bold enough to dare to present two untraditional families and how their dynamics were shaken when the kids started questioning the how and whys of their way of living. What I also enjoyed was the performances that were pretty great from every actor and actress in the cast.

However, I didn't like how they handled some of the scenes that were sloppy and awkward. Plus, they didn't explain some problems that eventually occured. But, overall, the story gave us a closure in the end.

So, overall, seven out of ten.
