with my eyes..... i see everything..... destruction.. peace... hatred..

Movie Plot:

Soichi Negishi moved to Tokyo to chase his dream of becoming a musician playing stylish, Swedish-style pop. Instead, he finds himself leading the death metal band Detroit Metal City as the costumed and grotesquely made-up "demon emperor" Johannes Krauser II. Although he hates the role and the things he has to do as a member of the band, he definitely has a talent for it. Adapted from the hit Japanese comic book by Kiminori Wakasugi, the movie follows Negishi's antics as he tries to reconcile the two very different sides of his life and find out what it really means to achieve his dream.

My review / comments:

Male lead is Ken'ichi Matsuyama who is also the genius and famous "L" actor in Death Note. Wow, I think Death note was his best look man! He looked gay in this film. Ahem ok, back to topic.. This movie is freaking hilarious! A perfect movie for friends and have a good laugh. No doubt it's cheesy and corny at times but in this chaotic funny film, u can actually find the meaning in life...

However, important note to those who can't take coarse language well. This movie contains quite a number of scenes with coarse language (of course, what do u expect from a metal rock band huh?) and probably split personality link lol. Ever had a dream of what u wanna become when u are older? But in reality not all of us realises our dreams as life take a turn to a worse side that u never expected nor wanted. In this film, Soichi Negishi (Ken'ichi Matsuyama) dreamt of being a decent pop star, however due to a freak change of plan in pursuing his career, he ended up in a metal rock band called Detroit Metal City. He is very famous in his role though but unwillingly... met his crush once again years after graduation and made him think why he didnt get what he wanted in life... and the laughter actually begins from here.. throughout the movie, u might be able to link how similar your life is now and not what you imagined. His motto was to give ppl a reason to dream through his soothing music (not METAL ROCK!) and thus very demoralised.. however.. slowly he found out that he is actually giving ppl hope and dreams through his unwilling rock music.. and his journey goes on..

NO MUSIC NO DREAM!

Movie Rating: 7/10 (Decent score, but i truly enjoy the movie very much.. will definitely recommend ppl to get this on DVD!)
