'Lost In Translation' movie

Usually the movies I see, the good guy has to kill at least 20 people, lots of guns, bombs, explosions, monsters, what have you.

This could be called a 'chick flick' but I must confess I liked it. Not sure if there was a thread on it. For those not in the know, it takes place in Japan. Not Thailand but Asia so I thought I'd make a post on it. I enjoyed it. Brief scenario, an aging American actor (Bill Murray) in Tokyo for the week to film a commercial and a young girl (Scarlett Johansson, she's basically unknown, had to look up her name), the wife of a celebrity photographer on assignment in Tokyo. Both have jet lag and can't sleep and the movie is about their hanging out for the week. The movie title I think comes from Murray trying to understand his Japanese hosts. I enjoyed it...even though no buildings got blown up, 20 people didn't die and Bill Murray didn't have to difuse a bomb in ten seconds that would have flattened Tokyo and cause WW3.
