The Human Bullet
A soldier has been in the Japanese military for the entirety of WWII, and in that time, his dedication to the army has never faltered. However, as the war draws to a close, his commanding officers become increasingly desperate and push their men to ever more absurd extremes. The ridiculousness of the orders from above peak when the hero of the story is assigned to drive a one-man submarine straight into the hull of an enemy battleship.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director doesn't push the comedy pedal — lets the scene develop at its own pace. The comedic effect arises naturally, without cuing the audience.
If you're looking for light cinema for an evening — this is it. If you're looking for something that'll change your perspective on life — keep scrolling.
For those who can appreciate simple pleasure without overthinking it.
