A ★★½ review of Cosmic Princess Kaguya! (2026) Japanuary'26 - #15 As messy as overloaded. Feels like someone thought about a lot of certain scenes, but didn't care about how to bring them cohesively together. Telling the tale of Princess Kaguya in...

Exit 8 (2025) A man gets lost in an underground passage. He follows the "guide" through the passage, but one after another, strange things happen to him. Is this space real? Or an illusion? Will the man be able to escape the passage?

"Dracula: A Love Tale" by Luc Besson.

A ★★★ review of Dear Stranger (2025) Was very intrigued at first when I saw the cast consists of Hidetoshi Nishijima (Drive My Car) and Gwen Lu-Mei (Black Coal, Thin Ice; Wild Goose Lake) living together as a married couple in New York. ...

Watched Toei's first English-language live-action "Dear Stranger" with Hidetoshi Nishijima that will hit theaters soon.

Bottom line is there wasn't really a need to let it take place in New York. But what else do you choose to depict a crime-rotten place?
