Japanese version of Ghost (1990)
5 February 2014
Warning: Spoilers
It is almost an identical remake of the movie Ghost (1990) starring Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze.

Certain things were changed around. The most significant is switching the man/woman role. It is probably more acceptable in the Japanese culture for a woman ghost to appear helpless than a man ghost.

There are some very cheesy scenes in the movie. It is unbelievably quickly for the two to fall in love even though they have nothing in common.

My main complain is the male actor who played Juno. He seems to have a hard time expressing sadness. I cringe when I see him try to cry.

As for the plot, it's more or less the same as the US version, down to the theme song.
