Wissper (2015)
This is excellent. Ignore the low rating.
This was rated 5.6 on IMDB at the time of posting this review, with 42 ratings and only 1 other review (also a 10/10).
In a world where shows, movies and products get engineered clout and positive reviews, only to disappoint with the first episode, the makers of Wissper have made no such effort, and it shows.
My 2 year old really enjoys the show and copies the little girl ("Shhh!").
The animation and special effects are good - certainly this is a 21st century production so much better look than 80s cartoons.
I've not made much effort to research how pedagogically sound the show is, but certainly the girl is more respectful to her parents and her surroundings than eg Peppa Pig.
Vaiburêta (2003)
A terrible movie
I saw Vibrator as part of a film festival in Greece.
It was truly one of the worst movies of all time. The show at a supermarket, where the two stars meet and immediately "hit off", proceeding to a sex scene in the back of the man's truck. For the whole movie, the viewer watches the "road trip" that follows. Images of the Japanese countryside are all this film has to offer, and beyond that, chaos.
I personally gave up on the film when the duo started a conversation on CB technology, which lasted about five minutes film time and truly wrecked my nerves.
I have no idea who might find this film interesting. Lonely middle-aged women who read Cosmopolitan might perhaps find the film expresses their own ambitions about life, like going around with a truck driver, talking about CBs and the futility of things and the like. There is no "deeper symbolism" in this film, no "high-level cultural event" here. This is a film that deserves the under 100 people who have seen it worldwide.
If you're a road movie maniac, go and see it. You might find it less horrible than I did. If not, pass. Heavens, STAY AWAY!
