Eiga: Kakegurui

they're all so good, the movie is so good and so the actors and actresses. This is so fabulous, and I think I'm enchanted by Yumeko she's so COOL, she's like monstrous outside and but not her looks 'cause she's so cute and pretty.

Right, well I wasn't particular much a fan of the animated series of "Kakegurui", so I wasn't really overly thrilled about this 2019 movie either. But still, I opted to watch it, on the off chance that the movie might actually surpass the animated series. But it didn't. Nay, the 2019 movie "Eiga: Kakegurui" (aka "Kakegurui: The Movie") from writers Tsutomu Hanabusa and Minato Takano was even worse than the animated series. So this was really a swing and a miss of a movie in terms of entertaining me. The storyline told in "Eiga: Kakegurui" was just downright rubbish and it utterly failed to capture my interest. Not only was the concept of the storyline a swing and a miss, but the characters were insanely unlikeable and the music was just difficult to listen to. There were so many annoying things going on here. And the movie introduced about a million different characters, none of which I could remember, and none of which I cared one bit about. I am sure that fans of the Manga will enjoy the 2019 movie "Eiga: Kakegurui". However, as a casual viewer, then this was just not worth the time, money or effort. And trust me, I have zero intentions of sitting down to watch the 2021 sequel movie. My rating of "Eiga: Kakegurui" lands on a generous three out of ten stars, and that is solely based on the production value and effort they put into the movie.

With their two films, they have made a great art in Japanese cinema, for a very new and fresh script, for an admirable performance of all their actors. The director has been able to reflect the ambition in the game of direction in both films..

I actually really enjoyed this. The acting style is overdone in an intentional way to look like a real life anime cartoon and I think it takes a lot of skill for actors to pull that style off convincingly, but yet they do. Slow and excessive in a few places, but otherwise a great show and one I greatly enjoyed.
