Because of the persistent backpain, instead of sailing or cycling, I stayed in my room and watched "Dancing dragnet" on DVD. This is one of the smash hit movies in Japan last year and I got the pirate edition of it in a chinese mall. It is a comical story of the police station in a new town in Tokyo and it takes up the problem of bureaucratic organization in Japan. I think it is well designed and full of funny scenes, but I couldn't really enjoy it. Though I cannot explain it well, I felt somewhat out of place with the movie. It is true that this movie describes the Japanese society right now, so it may be concluded that not the movie itself but I am out of place. As many years have passed since I escaped from the bureaucratic organization in Japan, the problem which this movie deals has become none of my business. And for that reason, I couldn't feel any sympathy for the problem in this movie.

As many years have passed since I escaped from the bureaucratic organization in Japan, the problems which this movie deals with have become inconsequential to me. And for that reason, I couldn't feel any sympathy for the main theme of this movie.
