Massuguna otoko (2010)
Wonderful Drama
When i first read about this Drama, i was not too convinced and not really interested, however when i found out that it stars two of my favorite Japanese idols Misako Uno and Kyoko Fukada i just had to check it out. This show is basically about a young man named Keniciro Matsushima (Ryuta Sato)who works at a building firm, he lives an ordinary life, working hard and spending time with friends & family. One day however he meets the mischievous Nurumi Kurita (Kyoko Fukada), who is always getting up to no good somehow and never really thinks about her actions, she basically relies on others bailing her out of situations. Then later he meets Yoshino Machida (Shihori Kanjiya) a quiet girl who works in a store who he seems to get on well with, the story follows from there it's a triangle based on those three people as well as separate events connected. This is a nice simple drama with great acting and great casting, I highly recommend checking this out if you are interested in J-drama.
Ju-on (2002)
Very Scary...
After watching all three of the American Grudge movies i was told about Ju-On, of course i had known about the Japanese originals, but i never actually seen them. After watching this movie i found it to be quite intense iv always been a fan of J-horror but i must say this is one of the best iv seen in a while, compared to Ringu (which was also awesome btw) i have to say this movie is better in my opinion, here are a few reasons why; The story, the atmosphere, the intense scenes, the horrific images, the acting and off course the vengeful spirits Kayako and Toshio Saeki played by Takako Fuji and Yuya Ozeki both fine performances by them i must say. Another thing i like about this movie is that it doesn't use blood and gore to scare you it's simply psychological suspense that gets the movie going. Overall if you are a fan of the Grudge series you will defiantly like Ju-On, Takashi Shimizu is an awesome writer and director and i hope to see more of stuff real soon.
