It is really touching. Feels realistic about Japanese

It is really touching. Feels realistic about Japanese people's daily life after WWII. It is normal, funny, yet really touching and meaningful story. It tells us, life with family and love can always be precious, even the most plain one.

Takashi Yamazaki's lavish screen adaptation of Ryōhei Saigan's

Takashi Yamazaki's lavish screen adaptation of Ryōhei Saigan's immensely popular manga, Always Sunset on Third Street is unashamedly sentimental, a glossy, big-budgeted soap opera remaining captivating in its swoon of admiration for the period it is portraying. It's not intended as a serious examination of the tribulations faced by post-war Japan, though hints are thrown in now and again, instead, it focuses on the daily lives of its larger-than-life characters. Although it sometimes feels episodic, the cornerstone of this movie's success lies in its charming essence, lovable performances and overall warmth, sweeping the viewer along with its energy, tugging at the heartstrings every step of the way.
