Great film with amazing performances. The story is straightforward but effective. It's a tad long but the two leads are so good, I didn't mind. The film is successful at letting the audience feel the weight Takashi felt as he is continuously berated and beaten down, but it also captured the beauty and joy when he's with Yamamoto. This film tells an important story and I hope Japan continues to produce films like these.

Only thing I would've liked is I wish the film addressed mental health more.
Also, I felt the ending was sweet and I was satisfied with it, but it leaned a bit on the unrealistic side for me. We see the character go through so much trauma and the film makes sure to tell it's audience just how difficult the work life is and so to just happily end with an ocean paradise makes it too ideal and unbelievable. But overall, I highly recommend the film.
