I thought the idea of the film was really nice. Having to find something useful in you and try to find the the good in you.
The visual aspects of the film became of course interesting when the men are big and dress as sumo wrestlers. The're is some good dialog, which made me laugh, but there was too much of it. Too many scenes and feelings we're explained by dialog.
Some of the characters we're unrealistic, like the woman who holds the diet club.
I know it's a matter of style, but never the less, it didn't struck me. The film has gotten some good reviews, so maybe I'm just the wrong person for this movie. Man in his forties, who see's a lot of film.
There is twist of a romantic comedy in it, which probably makes it a very good dating movie. But for me it was a bit too naive and some of the scenes we're just so simple and looked too much like television.
The cinematography of the film excels only in a few sumo scenes. Otherwise it's stuff made straight to DVD.
