Kid Mon: Real Name Unknown

It's pretty good. Nothing particularly original or groundbreaking, but different enough from most of your mainstream Hollywood fare. If you're a fan of modern Japanese dramas you'll probably enjoy this one. There are a few really great scenes. It's not a minute too long and the whole thing flows really well. I never got bored for a second while watching this.

The acting and directing are really great. I think we can expect more good things from this very talented director, who also wrote the film. The style and themes reminded me a lot of the works of Hirokazu Kore-eda, but here everything feels a little more subdued, and a little less emotional, which I suppose is less dramatic but perhaps also a closer representation of real life as we're used to seeing it.
