Tsukiji Wonderland

Fish Fish Fish Fish Fish Fish Fish Fish~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tsukiji Wonderland is a documentary that will amaze you with the awesomeness of all the people working at this fish market. I had seen some documentaries about Tsukiji on TV before, but they focused on the fish auction. Tsukiji Wonderland, on the other hand, shows you the complete process including before and after the auction – from the arrival of the fish at the market until the fish being served at restaurants as sushi. The areas where visitors are not permitted are also filmed, so it is really interesting to watch.

The film centers on the intermediate wholesalers at the market. It shows their incredible knowledge about fish and how significant they are in delivering the best fish to the customers which include top-notch sushi restaurants. I have just learned from this film that fish taste different based on the season and even how they got caught! Their knowledge about fish is just amazing.

Very Basic documentation and not that interesting. Theres Not really much going on. I feel You could read a one page summary of the Tuskiji fish maket and save yourself an hour. Is it horrible, no not at all and if you are in the industry or plan to visit Japan this could be something to watch. As the average Joe, meh. Kind feels like the Japanese waters and surrounding areas might be over fished if anything. I love fish and fishing to, but this really does don't pull me in at all.
