I really enjoyed this movie. Gives you a good look a Japanese culture and how difficult it is for an outsider to fit in overseas. Brittany Murphy's character feels like an outcast at work, especially after her boyfriend leaves her. Only when she visits a local ramen shop does she discover something she enjoyes doing, despite her tyrannical teacher's dislike for her.

This film could have been a five star movie if all the great pieces were put together better.
Brittany Murphy as a woman in her 20s trying to find her way in life was a great character. She follows her non-committal boyfriend to Tokyo where he abandons her in a movie that although echoing Lost in Translation, has a better story to tell. As her day job is undemanding (the distrust of western employee work ethic is more brilliantly displayed in Fear and Trembling) and adds to her alienation, ... Read More
