It's not bad even though there are some things that I wouldn't really agree with showing them as right, but mainly it's alright. But that's pretty much it about it, it's alright, nothing really more. It had a pretty simple plot, we can see how Mikami is struggling to get back into society after prison and how throughout the movie he adjusts to it and at the end he finally "lets it go" and doesn't let his co-workers provoke him. And it really implies that as a very important thing and that you should never really get into violence basically. So first of all I don't really agree with that and sure, there could be other ways to handle it sometimes, there definitely are times when it couldn't be and fairly often and it's not always a bad thing to resolve to violence for let's say like the scene where Mikami helped a person across the street and beat up those two guys that were bothering him. I'd say that isn't wrong and it really didn't seem like he could have resolved that with words, nor could he have ran away since he wasn't the one that they were bothering. So I just think that the message itself might not be completely wrong, but the movie too heavily implies on the fact that you're supposed to almost never resolve to violence. Another thing is that sure, let's say you go by that message, even then there are other ways to handle a conflict instead of just completely "letting it go". Like in the end with the co-workers when they were making fun of another disabled co-worker, I feel like Mikami could have tried to talk with them or something, maybe it wouldn't have worked, sure, but at least he could have done something. Just not doing anything and pretending that the problem doesn't even exist is not the solution. So I just feel like they could have shown their message in a bit different way. Other than that like I said it was alright. Nothing much interesting happened, but it's a simple story and it shows how he's struggling with the sudden change quite well. So yeah it's not a bad movie, but it's just kind of average
