Summary of Tokyo!

Paris may be the City of Light and New York may never sleep, but there is an undeniable energy to Tokyo. In this anthology film, three renowned filmmakers--Michel Gondry, Leos Carax, and Bong Joon-Ho--each direct an imaginative featurette about the city. Gondry (BE KIND REWIND) presides over INTERIOR DESIGN, a film that features all the director’s hallmarks as it follows a couple who moves to the metropolis. MERDE from Carax (THE LOVERS ON THE BRIDGE) centers on the eponymous character (Denis Lavant), a formerly sewer-bound monster who finds his way aboveground and begins to create chaos. Finally, Bong, the mind behind the international hit THE HOST, directs SHAKING TOKYO, a quirky romance about a hermit who forms an attachment to his pizza delivery girl.

Saw this in the theater and it was one of the worst movie-going experiences of my life. Gondry's entry is interesting, but everything else was absolutely horrible. Run. Run far away from this. Read and rate it
