Featured review
Let sleeping dogs lie, indeed.
I first saw this in 2010. Revisited it recently. Some movies indeed deserves a second viewing before being reviewed.
Suspect X is the first of several film adaptations of the novel The Devotion of Suspect X.
This is the Japanese version n has some amazing performances by the actors. I ain't aware of the names but really terrific performances.
I loved the opening scene where a physicist solves a crime via the explanation of physics.
The plot - Yasuko Hanaoka, a recently divorced, single mother owns a restaurant and she has a regular customer, Tetsuya Ishigami, her next door neighbor, a tad reclusive, but brilliant mathematics teacher.
Buying lunches from Yasuko's restaurant is the brightest part of Tetsuya's day.
Things take a sudden change when Yasuko's abusive ex-husband shows up one night to extort money from Yasuko but is killed by Yasuko and her daughter.
The acting n cinematography is top notch but the editing is not upto mark. There r scenes which are very slow n not required.
I didn't like the ending.
