distuuuuurbing

watched two movies yesterday: 300, which was gory as expected and love exposure, a japanese movie with a seemingly innocent and cute title but turned out to be unexpectedly disturbing. the story revolved around religion, love, family, lust, and a lot of abnormal psychology. it was four hours long! actually, na-cut na daw ng producer yun. six hours yung original. san ka pa? yesterday, i was convinced that it was a japanese indie movie. apparently, it was not. it ran on mainstream and whats more is that it actually won awards! oh well, taka pa ko. as if naman bago sakin ang disturbing themes nila. last time i watched, about incest naman. tinapos ko lang para kay jun matsumoto. haha. pero nakakashock parin to. this has been the most disturbing so far. obvious bang nabother ako? how many times did i write disturbing?

if these are the kind of movie that japanese people watch, then i wont anymore question why suicide is a normal thing to them. so okay, most filipino movies are not that thought provoking. you can easily predict whats gonna happen next and whos gonna end up with who. but at least they reflect who we are- happy people. haha. plus, our movies are maturing naman. so all is good :)

ps. in fairess to the actors, theyre good.
