This is the story of a young boy, who goes in search of his mother, and the old cantankerous neighbor man who is coerced into taking him. Ojiisan (Old Man) gambles away the money in the first 24 hours, so they must find alternative ways of getting to their destination. Their adventures are fun and scary, and it's a sweet movie. Unfortunately you get tired of it, and the movie keeps going. The last half hour (of the 2 hour movie) is really cute, so don't give up on it. But be prepared for a long movie, maybe take your own intermission.
