There are heavy, deep, end of the world time loop movies (which this fun flick references), but this is not one of them.

A very light-hearted, character-driven, single location, short and fun, really, really fun enjoyable movie. If you're nearing 50, and thinking there is no more fun in life, this is for you. If you're a young aspiring worker giving it all for your workplace, this is also for you.

No one dies (except, probably, a pigeon) and injuries are light. At worst, the characters are going through your standard work week, they won't suffer hell or worse. Movie wise, it's doing the job and more, actors are fantastic, one of those "hidden gems", as they call it.

At first sight, a Japanese film with a rather banal synopsis: a group trapped in a time loop. And yet, the film offers unexpected twists and turns, takes us on an emotional rollercoaster and, above all, makes us have a great time, even though the underlying issues are very serious. This film was definitely a surprise for me, in terms of script, acting, direction/editing and music. And I'll certainly have more consideration for pigeons in the future!

Whether you're a Japanese film fan or not, I highly recommend it! A fun and feel-good movie for all, that I will have pleasure to rewatch for sure.
