Half of the film consists of sex scenes, while the other half features cinematic shots of Japanese cityscapes, all accompanied by wacky music that sounds like it came straight out of a generic Japanese visual novel. The only thing more absurd is the Fantozzi soundtrack. Impressively, the movie masters the art of including explicit sex scenes without ever showing any genitals. I enjoyed the performances, particularly the father and his synergy with his younger son. If you’re looking for a compelling story, you should probably look elsewhere. However, the movie has surprisingly cute atmosphere. 6.5/10.

A japanese erotica film that delivers exactly what you’d expect. The only noteworthy aspect is that the main actress maintains the same facial expression throughout the entire movie. 6/10.

Don’t expect much from the story, plot, or character arcs—they’re all just a vehicle to deliver the funnsies and slaughter, though the comedy sometimes degenerates into cringe, I especially loved when Deadpool said, “I am Marvel Jesus,” and then proceeded to Deadpool all over the place. 7/10.

People club their heads in with swords throughout time. Some cool shots, neat story, and not your standard action flick. 6.5/10.

With the year 2024 coming to an end, and inspired by sizeofcat’s end-of-the-year summary, I thought I would reflect on the past year and highlight some things I accomplished.
