KANO the movie

The only interesting bit of this movie is to understand life in Taiwan under Japanese rule. The rest is like comic. Anyone who had experience with Japanese Manga that's sports related will be able to understand what I meant. A group of hot-blooded youngsters vowed to win the championship - and they worked on it and they always did it. Everyone was in tears whether they made it or not. I am very confused what this movie is trying to say. The passion for baseball? The director wants to blend in the history of Taiwan, the soil, the land, the people into the story but concoction is just not as splendid. It is also a 3 hour long movie, coming out of the theater, I only felt tired and it is very hard to echo the compassion and energy - the story is simply too thin and the acting... As I described before, I think it is really like reading a comic. Correction - Kano is a remake from a comic, that's why it is so unreal. But I still don't like it.
