Umizaru 2

One year ago, I coincidently stumbled upon this VCD titled ‘Umizaru’ at VideoEzy and decided to borrow it. It was a story about the Japan Coast Guard training school whereby rookie divers are trained to become elite rescue divers.

Before I watched this show, I have never watched a Japanese movie that could stir my heart so much. I really must commend the movie director of Umizaru for such a superb script! The choices of soundtracks were excellent too.

On Friday, after celebrating our 62nd month with Rebecca, we agreed to watch the recent sequel ‘Umizaru 2’. This time the movie script was fabulous! Though it had its new addition of corny jokes, we were very touched by the story, especially during moments that so grip our hearts, as we clenched our hands together.

Needless to say, this movie has become a hit in Japan, grossing stunning amount of profits in just the first few weeks of the launch. Why am I not surprised? Hee! The movie director has proven himself once again. Umizaru is indeed a distinct portrayal of courage, determination and camaraderie. Rebecca was so moved by the show that she wanted to buy it to show to her primary school students! Me too! I can’t wait to buy the DVD!
