Tug of War! Trailers

The mayor of Oita wants to improve the image of his city, so he instructs Chiaki - a young woman working for the city's PR department - to form a female tug of war team. Nobuo MIZUTA mixes comedy, drama and a pinch of social criticism to tell a tale of eight women, their everyday struggles and their support for each other.

...the plot is predictable and was done hundreds of times; of course most things are done before, but this movie has not a fresh approach about it. Most actors except Inoue san give the impression that fit better on TV series than belong to a movie. Of course we have the effort and the sacrifice for a good cause as a premise. That effort is very well appreciated in Japan, even more if it s done by a group of persons.-The camera work is too cliché even the music at some point is bland.I think there s a fine line between something very good that touch you deep and a weekend afternoon pass time movie. So if you are interested in Cinema, this is not for you; if you have that bag full of pop corn ready and the attention here and there, well, watch it.
