		<description><![CDATA[Judging by the observation that almost all the audiences in the albeit small movie theater stayed till the very end of the credits &#8211; which by the way is rare in the movie going scene here in Singapore &#8211; this Japanese production BECK has certainly touched the audiences&#8217; hearts.  BECK is a story about the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Haruki Murakami is one of my favorite writers.  I do not think it is possible to bring any of his books into a big screen.  Because much of the content is based on the characters&#8217; observation and their state of emotion, or even the writer&#8217;s observation on the world he creates.  His story tends to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One lesson I learned: Try not to bring your partner to watch a Japanese (or Korean for that matter) romance movie after her makeup workshop.  Cynthia was weeping profusely throughout the movie, like the rest of the girls around us in the theater.  I had no idea it was that emotional.  The title sounds harmless.

		<description><![CDATA[This Japanese movie is going to make lots of girls tear, though not the quite the same way as &#8220;10 Promises to My Dog&#8221; as one would have expected.  The story begins with a mysterious manuscript that arrives at the hands of a grandmother and her granddaughter.  And the manuscript tells a story of a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I enjoy watching Japanese movies.  Mainly because they often touch onto my emotional core.  Perhaps it is something to do with dramas.  Something to do with the way Japanese craft the stories.  If there is one thing that got me thinking late at night, long after finished watching &#8220;My Rainy Days&#8221; (天使の恋), that would be: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a no-brainer.  If you have already followed the Japanese movie adaption of the manga series, you wouldn&#8217;t wish to miss the last installment of the trilogy.  If you have not heard of &#8220;20th Century Boys&#8221;, I doubt if this 156 minutes film would make much sense to you. I was struggling to like the first [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was young, I often read Japanese novels of the detective and thriller genre.  In Chinese of course.  There is this Oriental exoticism that is different from the similar stories of the West.  The twists and turns, the ambiance, the backdrops, and the attention to details like an art - all in a pace that is [...]]]></description>
