GAIJIN ATTACK TEAM!
In the middle of a blah review of the new Japanese disaster remake, THE SINKING OF JAPAN (which gives the film two yawns out of four), there suddenly pops up some offensive fun facts from EVERYONE OTHER THAN JAPAN SINKS, the parody film made by Minoru Kawasaki (CALAMARI WRESTLER and BEETLE, THE HORN KING). Apparently when the foreign leaders all come to Japan they're bummed out and hang around in bars drinking, the big movie stars can't get work and there's something called the GAT (Gaijin Attack Team) that shows them what's what. As the reviewer says:
"It's most likely that foreigners will be outraged at this terrible film. It's amazing that it was even made. But as absurd as the film may be, it's uncanny. It certainly lingered with me longer than its counterpart, "Nihon Chinbotsu."

i saw it
i`m gaijin
it`s a great movie
makes no sense
isn`t at ALL rude
just funny
all the foreigners i know who have seen it think it is a blast.....i think the reviewer needs to find something else to be sensitive about - this movie is gold - it will be perfect at 3am with a bad translation when you`ve come home from drinkin and can`t get to sleep and you find on a random channel - one of those gems.
GAT
