An unlikely hero defends Japan from monsters but is an outcast among its citizens.
Trailer
Why watch the movie Big Man Japan?
"Directed and starred in by one of Japan's most famous comedians, Hitoshi Matsumoto, this is a singular parody of the "tokusatsu" genre--productions like 'Ultraman' or 'Changeman'--which, with its false documentary style, explores the pains of maintaining traditions in a changing society. 'Big Man Japan' was nominated for Best Film at the Sitges Festival and, curiously, was selected at the Cannes Festival."
