The story is well-crafted and thought out. The acting is good. The special effects and settings are good. This is a polished movie except for one thing: there is no English soundtrack.If you do not like to read subtitles because they reduce your enjoyment of a movie you will be frustrated. Every time your eyes have to move from the acting to the subtitles you will be pulled out of the story.It seems to me that if the producers want to market this DVD in the United States they will get a lot more buyers if they hire a few English speaking "voice talents" and re-release it.Perhaps in the re-release the producers will explain their reasons for not providing the English soundtrack in the first place.
