This is the worst film ever! 1) The storyline is crap - absolutely nothing happens - no climax no nothing - the whole thing was just B-O-R-I-N-G 2)Being an Asian, I think the film has a lot of racist implications - most Japanese people are portrayed as weird, even stupid and they are made fun of because they do not speak English. *But the Americans in this film ARE the strange people in Japan - they speak absolutely no Jpanaese but they still had a lot of respect from Japanese. 3)Bill Murray was way too old *and ugly* for Scarlett Johansson so the whole thing was a bit messed up anyway. 4)Like loads of people thing this film conveys some deep meaningful messages of life - but it does not at all - it's just a story of two people who have no idea what life is about, let alone how to enjoy it

Juts coz this film got tons of awards people feel like they have to say it's good after they have woken up just before the end

if you haven't seen it - DO NOT!
