Nana the movie(2005)

Rating: 4-/6

For such a famous movie, I expected a bit more. This movie is about two women, both 20 years old and named Nana. They meet on the train when going to Tokyo, and by another coincidence ends up living with each other. The thing is, the two are really different in just about anything.

I never really fell for the nana manga, even though I tried reading some of it, and I get about the same feeling here. It’s got some interesting parts, but the rest almost gives me a feeling of… indifference? The good feelings of the manga was there as well though. If you liked the manga I think you’ll like this one too^^

I don’t know what to say about the acting and all. Seeing Kenichi Matsuyama, Ryuhei Matsuda AND Hiroki Narimiya should make me thrilled while watching any movie, but it still didn’t really catch me.

I guess it’s kind of too subtle for my taste, or that the plot is too predictable or something. It’s kind of hard to tell.

But it wasn’t all bad, even if I’ve only written negative opinions till nowXD If one were to sum the movie up, I actually liked it, but the stuff that filled it in between dragged it down. I liked bits and pieces of it, as some romance parts, friendship parts and life parts. Not all of these were good, but I liked the stuff that made me care. I just sat through the rest. I loved how it at least looked like it was the actor singing during concerts. I think it was her^^

There was enough of the good parts though to make me kind of interested in watching the second movie. So I guess it wasn’t all that bad. But still, I don’t think I’ll watch it again.
