Brilliant, just brilliant.
| I don't know if I can describe this movie anymore after reading Mr. Kennedy's review ( another Kevin I see, hmm ) but if you're looking for a good movie, be sure to grab this one. You won't regret this purchase - from the start till the end it won't fail to put a smile on your face ( when you're not laughing your backside off ) |

Brilliant ensemble comedy
| Writer/director Mitani Koki is a treasure. His films manage to feel both nostalgic and fresh; they have a timeless quality driven by Mitani's wonderfully good-natured sense of humor. "The Magic Hour" tells of a young hotel manager who becomes entangled with the local crime boss and, to save his skin, tells the crime boss that he can hook the boss up with a legendary hit man. The boss takes him up on the offer, leaving the hotel manager in a terrible bind, since he has no idea how to reach the hit man. The manager cooks up a wild scheme to try to extricate himself from the mess -- he will hire an actor to play the hit man, will pretend with the actor that he is being hired to act in a movie, and inject the actor among the crime boss and his gang without telling the actor that these are actual thugs. The scheme soon spins comically out of control, with the situation becoming ever more desperate. The film's wonderful ensemble cast brings this wild premise to vivid life. This is brilliant stuff! Very highly recommended. |
