Accuracy of Death

I saw this movie at the Asian Film Festival in San Diego at Hazard Theater.

I enjoyed it a whole bunch. It was a movie about an angel of death that shows up a little before someone is supposed to die, to see if it really is there time to die, and to help them over to the other side. It is a Japanese movie.

This film held together well. I liked the way all the lives this angel of death touched were related somehow.

Also the whole talking dog thing was pretty cool too. The angel of death has a dog that is his assistant, and it reminded me of the Legend of Zelda game, where Link can turn into a dog. The sound effects were kind of similar whenever the dog spoke. Pretty funny. The whole movie was a feel good comedy about serious issues. If you can handle subtitles or understand Japanese, you should see it.
