I just saw the movie, Suicide Club, and boy did it piss me off. I guess the first thing I should tell you is that you don't have to worry about me spoiling the movie, because there is nothing to spoil!
Now don't get me wrong, I enjoyed watching the movie up until the last 10 minutes. It was well made, had many entertaining moments, many shocking moments, and a few "Omg Wtf just H@ppen3d?!" moments, but the ending was SEVERELY dissapointing.
I know that American cinema is often criticized for having the good guy always get the girl and always come out on top at the end of the day, but it seems that nearly all of the Japanese movies I have seen seem to take pride in the fact that they are nearly impossible to comprehend and lead the viewer into what can be described as a "deer in the headlights" state as they just try to figure out what the heck they just saw...
I guess I just want to hear what other people have to say about this before I launch into the particulars, so please feel free to criticize me, my viewpoints, or other Japanese movies you have seen and I'll try to respond in a civilized manner
