		Odagiri Joe was good in "Satorare" but I was disappionted in his role in this drama(maybe I expected too much, after his great work), Nakamura Yukie was alright.
		Odagiri Joe and Nakama Yuki....they were great here....Joe looked hot in suits...the show overall was good.....keeps you in suspence....
		Joe Odagiri is very cool in this film esp in one scene where is stood on the top of a building.

	Bright Future - Joe Odagiri interview (actor)
		Odagiri: I thought it incredible that such a nameless actor like me was offered a major role in the best film like this one.
		Odagiri: Before engaging myself in this film project, I had been working for a series of TV dramas and probably I was acting in the television style trying to explain too much.
		Odagiri: I was not happy with myself between television dramas.

	Hoga News: Joe Odagiri's "HAZARD" opens after 4 years
		Sion Sono's "HAZARD", starring Joe Odagiri, filmed in 2002 mostly in New York, was released in Japan for the first time on November 11.
		The story depicts a dangerous journey of a young Japanese man, who left the sleepy home country and seeks the place of hazard, as well as his own life, in the dark side of New York.
		Odagiri, who sported the punky hairstyle as usual, said, "I really don't remember anything, as it was a long time ago.

	Shinobi (JAPAN 2005)
		Based on the novel by Futaro Yamada, this Tokugawa-set film depicts the fate of two star-crossed lovers: Gennosuke (Joe Odagiri) from the Koga clan and Oboro (Yukie Nakama) from the Iga clan.
		Both ninja groups are secluded deep within the mountains, honing their ninja skills to levels beyond that of mortal men.
		Odagiri, in particular, conveys a welcome sense of world-weariness and plain-spoken common sense in his character's rejection of the Shogun's decree.

	Slant Magazine - Film Review: Azumi
		Issues of morality and integrity, however, are merely trotted out to consume time in between Kitamura's large-scale battle sequences, most of which are handled with an entertaining combination of cheesy melodrama, tongue-in-cheek absurdity, and slow-motion and CG-aided acrobatics, including a forest scuffle boasting a hallucinatory, almost 3-D effect.
		As preternaturally sadistic baddie Bijomaru, Jo Odagiri delivers a performance of campy villainy so deliciously outsized that he crowds everyone else (even Minoru Matsumoto's monkey-faced Saru) off-screen, while Ueto radiates a strain of barely-legal Valkyrie sexuality aimed squarely at those with unsavory carnal appetites.
		Buried within Azumi is a clash between competing modes of femininity, as Azumi, after being exiled from her assassin clan, is temporarily persuaded by a traveling theater troupe performer named Yae (Aya Okamoto) to forgo her homicidal ways, let her hair down, wear some lipstick, and assume a "traditional" womanly role.

		Designated as the leaders of the two clans respectively, Kouga Gennosuke (Joe Odagiri) and Oboro (Yukie Nakama), who were secretly married, are unwillingly embroiled in the political plot.
		Both Tak Sakaguchi and Joe Odagiri are members of Zeros action team.

		The only thing exciting going on in their lives is Mamoru's prized pet, a poisonous red jellyfish that will later figure heavily into the film's main plot.

	Bright Future
		Tadanobu Asano and Joe Odagiri star as two friends who work part-time in a laundry factory in Kiyoshi Kurosawa's highly original BRIGHT FUTURE.
		Odagiri is Yuji Nimura, a messy, lazy slacker who has odd dreams at night of a future of hope and peace.
		His best friend, Mamoru Arita (Asano), meanwhile, is obsessed with his pet red jellyfish, a poisonous creature he is training to be able to survive in fresh water.

		Logging hours at a dead-end job in industrial laundry, Joe Odagiri and Tadanobu Asano are offered permanent positions by their middle-aged boss Takashi Sasano, who seems anxious to hang out with them and relive his "wild" youth.
		While Asano sits on death row, Odagiri is left to manage an experiment with the jellyfish that involves acclimating it to fresh water, which proves problematic when the undulating beast slips into the city canal.
		Meanwhile, Odagiri strikes up a peculiar friendship with Asano's estranged father (Tatsuya Fuji), a junk-electronics salvager who treats Odagiri like the son he never knew.

	Variety.com - Reviews - Bugmaster
		Japanese animator Katsuhiro Otomo ("Akira," "Steam Boy") comes up with an eclectic mix of melancholy and magic in live-action period yarn "Bugmaster." Neither a regular horror flick nor a straight drama, pic is gently unsettling, like many Asian movies, for its apparent normality and lack of clear division between the human and spirit worlds.
		Yoki, now called Ginko (Joe Odagiri), shows off his own de-bugging smarts when the owner of an inn (Lily) asks him to examine her staff and he correctly diagnoses an infection by the Wn of the Ah-Wn bug (script has a lot of such gobbledygook).
		Like most of the film itself, Odagiri is low-key but intriguing as the main bugmaster.

		Mamoru, played by Todanobu Asano and Yuji, played by Joe Odagiri wile away their days working a dead in job in a depressing factory.
		The only joy in life these two have is trips to a local arcade and Mamoru’s odd pet: A saltwater poisonous jellyfish.
		The performances by Todanobu Asano, Joe Odagiri and Tatsuya Fuji are top notch and make this journey through the ennui of Tokyo an interesting journey.

	Ink 19 :: Bright Future
		Bright Future is a quiet, but powerful movie that thankfully stands to benefit from a wider share of this enlarged spotlight.
		The plot revolves around Yuji (Joe Odagiri) and Mamoru (Tadanobu Asano), two directionless, working class friends living in Tokyo.
		Both men are so emotionally guarded there's very little insight given into their motivations or lack thereof.

		Elementary knowledge for a film critic, one supposes, but knowledge that seems to have slipped the minds of most critics who reviewed Miwa Nishikawa's Sway, the only Japanese feature film selected for the 2006 Cannes film festival.
		Sway follows Takeru (Odagiri), a successful big city photographer for trendy magazines.
		He looks the part, seems every bit the urban hipster.

	Bright Future \| movies : ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Now Kurosawa is more interested in cool ''everyday'' details of a futuristic present in which a couple of angry, alienated Japanese twentysomething men bond (if that's not too squishy a term) in shared anger and alienation.
		Both of them work in a hand-towel factory, one (Tadanobu Asano) owns a glowing, poisonous jellyfish he keeps in a tank, and when violence leads to a jail sentence, his friend (Joe Odagiri) takes over the creature's care.
		It's strange to say that one thing leads to another in such a stubbornly disorienting, apocalyptic tale (there's the part where the jellyfish makes a break for it, becoming a new-style monster).

	"Do I Exist?": The Unbearable Blankness of Being in Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Bright Future
		Kurosawa's films are always highly enigmatic, and the jellyfish in Bright Future is an embodiment of these qualities, the film's reigning symbol.
		Too self-sufficient and formless to be assigned a single significance, the jellyfish nevertheless reflects (or absorbs) both of the central characters, Mamoru Arita (Todanabu Asano) and his friend and colleague Nimura (Joe Odagiri), as well as embodying the relationship between them.
		It's reminiscent of the tree at the centre of Kurosawa's 1999 film Charisma (perhaps his loopiest, and best) – both attest to Kurosawa's fascination with creatures whose experience of existence has little in common with ours.
