Back Street Girls: Gokudoruzu

I have watched maybe 3 episodes of the animated Manga upon which this movie was based upon, but I didn't actually know that they had made it into a live action movie. And initially, I wasn't overly fascinated with the Manga, so this movie wasn't one that was on my radar.

But I was given the chance in 2020 to sit down and watch the 2019 movie "Back Street Girls: Gokudoruzu". So I did that. However, I can't really claim that I was overly entertained by this live action movie of the Manga.

The acting in the movie was adequate, and yeah there were some funny moments here and there, but overall the movie was just too mundane and really was lacking majorly in the storyline and script department. Which made for a less than mediocre movie actually.

It was difficult for me to get into the atmosphere of this movie, as I just felt it was lacking vital parts that would otherwise have made it an interesting movie. Sure, I did manage to finish the movie, but I wasn't particularly enjoying the movie.

My rating of "Back Street Girls: Gokudoruzu" is a generous four out of ten stars. There was a lot of potential right there for the taking, but director Keinosuke Hara just didn't manage to do that.
