Charming story about two sisters adventure going to America from Japan. The cultural differences and what drives them. The main character Setsuko is loveable as her alter ego Lucy who chases after life instead of being trodden on by it.Not an action movie but a sweet tale definitely worth a look for it's raw view of life in all the shades of good and bad.

Genuinely funny (dark humor!), excellent acting, and very well-paced!

This is a tragedy that you do not know is a tragedy until it's about 3/4 of the way through. Up until then, you think it's a comedy of errors. It's not. Heartbreaking and very well done.

This film is not just a funny story about a middle-aged Japanese woman, falling in love with an American heartthrob then hopefully following him to the US, there's actually more true emotions to it. We could see how culture could be very different, the difference in generations, it gives us a light on why Japanese people are portrayed to be so emotional and how things affect them psychologically. The feeling of romance, empathy for loneliness, funny moments, a wee bit of hot unprecedented sex, anger and lots more thrown into there. A film worth more credit for the emotion it brings.
