From time to time, we sometimes stumbled a gem in watching films, and this movie is just like that, a cult classic in the making that every fan of this genre would become happy to include.this masterpiece to their collection. A film by sion sono who is perhaps the most surreal Fimmaker today, just expect the unexpected while watching his films, but would you believe me if I say that this film is maybe most suitable for children, kinda mindf*cked right, well that is exactly what I’ve felt while watching this movie. Totally absorbing film, especially if you got what the filmmaker is trying to convey, he ties this lovable family drama about a turtle and a frustrated rock star with issues we have in this world right now..war, capitslism, ignorance among other sh*ts. You would feel the love put by sion in this movie as the development and the events were meticulously done, especially that ending sequence which I will honestly compare to fish story.

The plot is as weirdly as it gets, an awkward guy who dreams to become a rock star got picked a lot from work or wherever he goes XD, due to loneliness he purchased this turtle who became his best friend, he talks a lot with his little friend about his frustrations, dreams and his love for this equally awkward girl at his work. The plot got separated when he flushed his little friend in a toilet cause his office mates made fun of him for having a turtle as his best friend, and this is where the brilliance of this film had begun. Due to regret and loneliness our main lead started humming a melody until he created this song that unifies the nation titled “love and peace”.

Music is perfect, the main song “love and peace” is surpringly catchy, knowing it was created due to his love for his turtle with help of this homeless guy that has some sort of ***spoilers not gonna tell. They have variations of that song throughout the movie so it doesn’t sound repetitive.

There are 2 types of characters in this movie the humans and the non humans, the talking toys. The CGI were far from brilliant, but this just mean that you don’t need cutting edge animation tech if your going to depict a character, what they use here is stop motion animation which IMO is what makes these characters more alive, its like magic. I love this non human characters so I was mindblown by how sion sono was able to pull this, the doll who is looking to be loved again, the angsty cat that act their leader and the robot that serves as the brain for them…these characters plays huge part in the movie. Hiroki hasegawa is somewhat revelation in this movie, yes I watched him before from dramas like mozu and date so I know his versatility, but his transformation from a dork to a wild rockstar is something to note off. Pikadon, our main leads turtle friend gives the best performance by a turtle I’ve ever seen, kinda overshadows hasegawa in some scenes, literally LOL.

A movie that would leave you a strong message and a song that was so catchy that you would hum its melody even after the ending credits.
