Densha otoko (2005)
A Slashdot love story

Speaking as a member of the computer geek community, this film accurately portrays what it's like to be today's connected computer geek with absolutely no social skills. ...and what it's like for them to date someone from outside that community of geeks. (Wow; I'm glad I'm more socialized now than I was). This reminds me a lot of the love stories found in anime cartoons. Great acting, great plot twists. But the characters are not deep enough for this to be a truly great movie that would merit a 10/10 vote. This is a movie with real actors on the screen, not cartoons, but the characters are as two-dimensional as a cartoon. Oh; I need an obligatory 10th line: Um, I was surprised I couldn't find it on Netflix. (that should do it...)
