Do Not Miss This Movie! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Deeply moving and poignant. The young actors were
fabulous especially the young teenager who was
well deserving of all the accolades bestowed on
him.

Brave Children Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
At the first time, I looked at this movie, I thought was something like "Oh the poor children" and put it back on the shelf at the movie store. Later I came back to the store, then looking around for more movies to rent, and look at that movie again. I think maybe I should rent it and see what it was like.

So I watched whole this movie, and I was shock how those VERY poorly bravely children trying to surivive without mother. Inside my heart, I was very mad about their mother leaving and came back being drunk, and the behave of hers around the kids. It was very hateful when I see her mom packing her kids inside the briefcase during the hot weather. All I see her is lying, careless, drunkard, and very suspection. It was very hurtful when that little girl fell off the chair.

I think this is the best movie of all Japanese movie I ever seen! Much much better than Ringu, Ju-On, other Japanese horror movies. It help me to remember what the reality, soul, and love movie is really like, maybe because I watched too much horror movies. I can't believe that I put it back on the shelf at first place! (excuse me if my English is bad)

Reality is hard to watch! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Reality is Hard to Watch!!

Watching the moview broke my heart. It brought tears to my eyes many times. Watching a kid taking care of his siblings was a difficult for me. Do these things actually take place in Japan? Is the same Japan we see in the commercials? Life in pursuit of the mighthy Yuan is a very complex business. Nobody knows, nor do they want to care. Akura's performance was stellar. Watching Akura when he goes with his girlfriend to the airport to bury her sister (who died while fallen from a chair in his absence) is difficult. Only in the mind of a child we could find a similar answer to a compelling problem such as the one he was facing.

Kids should be always wanted. They deserved to be loved. Parents need to think twice about their obligations and responsibilities before engaging in the business of making kids.!! All my love goes to the hundreds of Akiras living whether in advanced or developing countries.

Excellent movie. Respectful yet tasteful treatment of the subject.

Jairo Viafara.

Its Incredibly Moving Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I agree the movie is long; however, I can't imagine or compare it with the long days and nights of these brave homeless children. The human element is so raw in this film; we rarely see this in "hollywood hits". If this movie doesn't move you or touch your heart, you're really lost with reality. I cried my eyes out, my sister has four children, the thought of them alone against the world is not scary but the thought of them alone with people who are oblivious to the plight of homeless and/or orphaned children is inconceivable and insensitive. It's one of the best films ever made. Please continue to make films with soul.

My thoughts Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10

It is true that the movie seems to go on forever and that it just gets more and more depressing into the film but while watching it you never notice the length of the film. You’re only thoughts are “Who is going to help these kids out?”
The reason why this movie is so "thought provoking" is because we see how two-faced society can be!
In my opinion I thought the film was great and the actors were somewhat believable. The only problem I had with the movie was that the people who encountered the kids didn’t get suspicious about their living situation. That part wasn’t believable to me. Other than that it was a great film.
Hate it or like it, it will get your mind running on how devious people are, even if they are your mom.

indifference Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
This movie is a harsh criticism against the reigning indifference of the Japanese society. I believe that the most terrible crime is indifference, just ignoring what others do for the sake of saving one´s face. I understand now why japanese people desire so much to live away from their homeland.

Nobody Knows Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
I thought this movie was fantastic. It was a deeply moving story and certainly evoked a great deal of saddness. The story is simply tragic. Having lived in Japan for a number of years, the movie accurately depicts so much of the everday - the sounds/sights were spot on.

Thought Provoking Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
Before going to seeing this film, I knew vaguely about the suject matter, I was told it was about some kids left home alone, and it was based on a true story. I prepared myself for what I thought was a japanese style remake of that commerical sucessful american film!
I was left shocked, surprised and depressed, I think this film was amazing, it deals with a difficult subject matter beautifully, and has true universal appeal. The character are both interesting and engaging, and the casting was spot on.
The art-house/ documentary style of the film, made it more real, thought provoking and personal, I cried at the end!
