19 January 2026 – Three out of four of us went to see ‘Rental Family’. The two others enjoyed it, appreciating the performance, plot and cultural differences from the Japanese lifestyles portrayed. I found it a bit boring and slow, and was not greatly enamoured by the performance put in by Brendan Fraser.

I did, however, like the performances of the little girl and the old man. I also found that it jumped about quite a bit, and didn’t really keep me engaged.
