🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Director Yuji Sakamoto constructs the plot as a clever puzzle, where every detail serves as either a clue or a red herring. He relies on the signature chemistry between Nakama and Abe, whose dialogues are filled with sarcasm and comic clashes between rational thought and rural superstition.

What lingers after the viewing is the delight of a smart comedy that isn't afraid to play with genre tropes, delivering laughs alongside a genuinely engaging mystery. — MovieFinder Editorial
