Shoplifters (Manbiki Kazoku)

My favorite Asian movies (36 movies items)

"Original Title: 'Manbiki kazoku' Country: Japan Directed by: Hirokazu Koreeda Plot: On the margins of Tokyo, a dysfunctional band of outsiders are united by loyalty, a penchant for petty theft and playful grifting.

Note: Hirokazu Koreeda has the reputation of being the greatest humanist director at work nowadays and, after watching this movie, it is pretty easy to understand why. Basicall"

"Sieluja murskaavaksi Cannes-voittajaksi odotin ehkä hieman enemmän. Tosin synopsiksen lukeminen on sama kuin sitoisi kädet yhtään ja koettaisi taputtaa. Turhaa ja tarpeetonta siis. Sisältää toki paljon jopa koskettavaksi luokiteltavaa perhekuvausta, mutta hieman kylmäksi jätti kuitenkin. Lapsinäyttelijät hoitivat homman hyvin. "

" Notes: I wasn’t disappointed and the damned thing really deserves its stellar reputation. Apparently, Hirokazu Koreeda has the reputation of being the greatest humanist director at work nowadays and, after watching this movie, it is pretty easy to understand why.
