    OH MY GAAWDDDDD! What made me watch this Movie?
    Eh SCREW YOOOOOO WILL!
    One of my best Friend is a huge Marlon Brando Fan and he persuaded me to watch this Movie with him. OH I WAS OVERJOYED I SLEPT LIKE A BABY after like 45 minutes. LMAO. I love Cl...( read more)assics, but this one was really strange.

    This movie is actually much more respectful of the Japanese culture than Memoirs, even with Marlon Brando playing the lead role as a Japanese interpreter.

    This wasn't bad. But it was really weird seeing Marlon Brando. His performance is fine, but still, just weird.

    Marlon Brando was a fearless actor who was constantly taking surprising, challenging work. This is one of the last roles anyone would expect him to play, and his performance is fantastic. This is a hilarious, involving film that, although politically incorrect by today's standard...( read more)s, is actually quite wholesome and sweet. The acting across the board is a pleasure to watch. Director Daniel Mann doesn't do anything remarkable with the material, and not all of the execution is perfect. Nevertheless, I was thoroughly entertained, and I would recommend this film to most people. It is the intelligence of the script and the colorful performances that make it so much fun.

    Such a funny post-WWII satire! Marlon Brando made to look like a Japanese man was by far the strangest thing in this film, but he manages to pull it off (although he does look rather ridiculous).
