Arguably Bill Murray's worst movie. And no doubt, one of Hollywood's worst. An ABSOLUTE dud. PLEASE, don't waste your money. If you really want to see it, borrow it from your brother in law. This movie seriously was 'Lost' in translation.
By T. Baker (st louis, mo)
The relationship between Murray and Scarjo is classic in the Hepburn/Tracy, Bogart/Bacall tradition. The tension is palpable early and often, and thankfully does not descend into pulp novel trash. Murray is terrific, but is actually upstaged by the range and depth of Scarjo. The karaoke scene is worth the price of admission.

I didn't particularlly care for this movie, it was just too slow with little or no plot of interest. But that's only my opinion, someone may find it more appealing than I did.

Not for people who like movies with plots. Basically, Lost in Translation follows two Americans who are in Japan on business. Both have their problems (one has a workaholic husband and doesn't know what to do with her life, the other is an actor but feels stuck doing commercials, both have failing marriages), but they are not the highlight. Neither do anything to fix their problems, but they lean on each for support. Meaning, they go to karaoke bars and arcades and drink. There is absolutely nothing meaningful about Lost in Translation.
While the back of the DVD case says an unexpected friendship blooms, their relationship is more like that of two people who don't know what they want. Ex. They act as if they want to help each other with their marriage issues, but then wind up sharing a passionate kiss before the guy (I forget his name.. It was really that boring) has to leave for the States. If some development of the romance had occurred, it might have made more sense.

This is every middle-aged man's fantasy. A hot young chick falling for a much older man. It is obvious why the older guy would be interested, but why would the younger woman be interested in the older man? The movie fell short on giving any reasonable explanation as to why the young woman would be interested in the older man. The young woman was protrayed as a Yale graduate who is missing intellectual stimulation in your marriage and life. Yet in the relationship she had with the older man, there still was no intellectual stimulating conversations between them, which made the relationship fake and unbelievable. Ask "What can the older man offer that the young woman can not get with her younger friends or husband?" This movie does not satisfactorily answer that question.
