Incredible
I was looking for a Japanese movie or drama that is similar to The Truman Show, that would inspire lucidity and this did not disappoint. The story is incredible- it only uses the subway station as the backdrop for the entire movie and yet it’s more engaging than anything I’ve seen in recent times. The main actor is incredible and the little boy is so adorable and innocent and brilliant. I was concerned that it might be too scary for me because it was listed as a horror movie but it was more interesting than scary- eerie and surreal would be a better word to describe it. After watching it once I watched it again. It’s quite addicting and even in a simple storyline there is so much hidden depth and meaning to each scene.Was this review helpful to you?

Totally on the nose but everybody is Lord Voldemort
Have seen lots of comments wondering what the film is about and I just don't get it. I'm terrible at getting hidden meanings but thankfully 'Exit 8' laids it out plain and simple to me: it's a movie about breaking the cycle of trauma, a very touching perspective of a man who has to deal with the reality of becoming a father and the responsabilities that come with it despite never having a father himself and basically having no idea on "how to do it".I thought it was a very refreshing context and overall entertaining piece.
