Becoming Father

This movie is mislabeled and misrepresented starting with its poster. It's not a romantic or happy film. It's a full-time drama that just goes too far with its realistic physical violence. Based on a seinen manga, the characters lack emotional complexity and are just a vehicle to the shocking turns of the story.

Two dumb and naive guys but with a good heart stumble on not so good people in their lives. You know, sometimes is better to think about the next decision or action; however, nothing of that occurs in this story hence all start to go down...and fast. Very interesting side of the coin to observe the problematic that the Life could be if the action is taken too abruptly. Movie is a violent one. All interactions are violent...and with a manly point of view. He needs to believe in himself and prove that to most (manly) to demonstrate that he really can "win" the love of the gal and of course have that baby. Acting is pretty good. Also the filming in the fight with his némesis was greatly done.
