After all the positive reviews I had heard about LiT I decided that I needed some lighthearted entertainment ( at thats at least what the trailers had led me to believe ) my girlfriend & I decide to go to to see LiT.

As a big Bill Murray fan ( Scrooge & Groundhog Day )I was expecting to be laughing my socks off. Big mistake !!!!!!

The only joke I could see in this film were sterotypical anti Japanese jokes..ie Bill M towering over the smaller Japanese in an elevator or the jokes about how Bill M could not understand the Japanese language........hysterical NOT ! No imagination.

A long winded story about 2 travellers with personal family issues lost and lonely in a foreign country falling for each other........full stop.

This film is very similar in feeling to "Leaving Las Vegas" but thats where the similarity ends.

Miss Coppola is not her father and this is no Godfather.
