A Nutshell Review: Handsome Suits
Handsome Suits might be Japan’s answer to Korea’s 200 Pounds
Beauty, and given the success of the latter movie which deals with
women’s vanity in wanting to look good, this one is the equivalent,
but centered on men instead, denying the focus on grooming as much
as we like.
Face it, we’re more than likely to turn the blind eye for
someone who looks good. Maybe not necessarily drop dead gorgeous,
so long as they’re pleasing to the eye. The movie plays on the
observation of how possessing good looks would open doors and help
in getting a leg up in life, like a satire on the sad reality of
life that is, but in its simplicity comes a well told story with
plenty of pathos to think about, ranging from being true to
oneself, and again a constant reminder not to judge a book by its
cover.
