Anyone else seen this ?

It's only showing at certain theatres in the city, and I couldn't really be bothered so I downloaded a DVD Screener of it. It's an awesome film if you are into Japan or Bill Murray, or are just looking to lose yourself for just under two hours. Watch it and youll understand why they call Sofia Coppolla an aesthete :)

I saw it by similar means...a while ago, but scarlett johansen is great in it
pretty random storyline but i enjoyed it,
the scene with anna faris in the karaoke bar, i couldnt stop laughing
bill murray is excellent in it, capturing the true "what the hell are you talking about" feeling when youre in another country

I've been desperately wanting to see it for soo long, but not a single friend will come with me, despite all I've been through for them (I went and saw "Honey" *shudder* with one of them!!)

yeah you'll need to take a friend with half a brain, because there is no explosions or crappy hollywood love story to keep them awake...therefore the obtaining it by ....ahem alternative methods

this movie is such a meaningful movie, i see that Sofia definently learnt that from her father who before her directed some of the best movies in history.

I've seen it and want to see it again. I adore Sofia Coppola. :D
It's such a beautiful film but many people just don't quite understand it.

It is a serious shame that this movie only plays at arthouse cinemas such as dendy and palace cause it deserves much more as it is a beautiful film
