CGiii Comment

The good news is...it's not set in a boys school.

The bad news is...it might as well had been. It's the same story...with more stubble.

It's not all fun and games when opposites attract...there's the sheepish, miserable one who acts like a wooden post throughout...and there's the cheerful, charismatic one who - unfortunately - can't carry the film on his own...due to the immature and often bizarre dialogue.

Perhaps and hopefully, most is lost in translation...whatever, it doesn't make the misery any more appetising.

Certainly not made for a gay audience...too dismal.

The(ir) Blurb...

On the first day of Shima’s new job he met a man with a hangover in the elevator. That was his first meeting with his new boss, Togawa. Though Togawa seemed rude and cross, Shima was drawn to the kindness beneath his rough facade. Both men harbor a painful past but unlike Togawa, who was open with his feelings, Shima seems unable to move on.
