Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo - My review
I have no idea why I have never heard/read anything about this story. Seems like it is a very popular manga (which I intend to read eventually). And how come I have never read that Kame made a movie with Ueno Juri!!? Who happens to be one of my favorite actresses. I am happy with all the costars Kame had so far: Horikita Maki, Ayase Haruka, Tabe Mikako, Kuroki Meisa, Anne and Ueno Juri. Not only beautiful girls of the same generation, but they also can act.
The beginning of this movie is excellent for any hyphen: starts with Ueno Juri (Nodame-chan!) in school with Koki, Maru and Kame. That's right, 3 members of KAT-TUN! I was pleasantly surprised about this fact, I had no idea about this.
The movie is a mystery with a touch of scariness. It is actually similar to "And then there were none" but with a bit of paranormal elements. A group of people is spending time in a far-away hotel, Hajime (Kame) and his childhood friend Miyuki (Ueno Juri), among others. Hajime is kind of a womanizer and also the grandson of a famous detective. One night Miyuki is attacked by the vampire, along with another guest, who then is murdered. Eventually, other people get killed and Hajime, in order to help his friend (who is a suspect), uses his skills to catch the murderer.
I liked the movie because I love mysteries. The whole time there was a fog surrounding the hotel, which help to make it more eerie. Kame was great as Hajime; I prefer him in roles that are not the kakkoi type; Hajime was cool but also more relaxed and kind of baka when it came to girls.
