Commuting to School Series: Commuter Tram (2015)

suugaku Series Tsuugaku Densha can also be called “The ultimate Shojo parody movie”.
I do like to watch shojo movies but this one was really awful.
There wasn’t even a real and catchy plot, no acting skills at all.
I feel bad saying it but as a big fan of Chiba Yudai I was really disappointed by his acting here.
Sloppy, awful, something that I won’t watch ever again.
And what about Ryo? He’s such a great actor but he has a strange and gloomy curse : it seems like no one wants to give him a lead role.
Chiba’s cute scenes were adorable….
I’ll give this movie a low score and, to be very honest, I won’t even recommend it to my friends.
Basically only big fans of Yudai can be able to handle it and watch it ‘till the end.

Unfortunately, the second movie was better. Though this one had some
mystery, the whole thing was cliché and the love story could have been
better. In the end, it was hard to understand what happened, why it
happened and how. The story looked interesting at the beginning, as the
whole fantasy-mystical element created suspense and an interesting
mystery to be unfold. However, the story got confusing and the romance
was not strong enough to help things get better. Maybe it was due to
lack of chemistry between the couple, though their performances were
really good. Or maybe the lack of a proper ending aided to make the
love story kind of boring. Again, the whole ghost story was too
complicated and not properly explained which led for this movie to be a
failure. So, 4 out of 10.
