Sei kazoku

A father who is a military officer completely dominates his sons and especially the daughters in all ways. A dysfunctional family.

It takes over eight minutes to get to the opening credits and you are ten minutes in to have some idea what this movie is about. Still, it takes almost an entire hour before this film makes real sense. None of the characters are endearing or likeable.

They use some lighting and focus effects although they don't add much. Unfortunately, the script is so weak. By the end everything will make sense, it's just that it meanders around until it gets there.

This is a Pink Eiga film so there is some nudity and sex scenes but they are far from being erotic or explicit.

At times I wanted to see where it was going but felt I needed a scorecard to keep track of things. There so many better Pink Eigas than this one.
