ストーリー紹介
The basic story of Limit of Love concerns a young couple, Daisuke Senzaki (Hideyaki Ito), and Kanna Izawa (Ai Kato). Daisuke works the coast guard in a small Japanese harbor, while Kanna pines for their marriage. Having long suffered the discomfort of a long distance relationship, Kanna makes her way down to visit Daisuke, only to find that due to some unforeseen guilt complex, he’s not as keen on marrying her as she would have hoped. After a bit of emotional discomfort Kanna makes her way back home, only to find the ferry she’s hitched has suffered a torn hull, and is fast sinking in the harbor. Needless to say, it’s up to Daisuke and team to save the day.

If there’s one thing to say about Limit of Love: Umizaru, it’s that it stands as firm proof that the Japanese can make action films just as big and just as silly as those that clog our multiplexes on a weekly basis. While a lot of criticism has been thrown at Spider-Man 3 for its reliance on coincidence, the enormity of those employed here make Spidey’s seem completely logical. Take for instance the huge fire on the sinking boat, started by gas leaking out of a line of toppled motorcycles, all without gas caps. Then there’s a sequence of escape route planning reliant on the Coast Guard station having immediate access to the full set of blueprints for the sinking ship. Admittedly, the film moves past these quickly enough that you don’t have too much time to think about them, but then there’s the problem of the repeated stalls. Near a third of the film is comprised of gambare pep-talks and complete inaction. When our heroes are trapped, they hold fast, discuss, and wait for a decision from outside. When they finally solve a problem, the audience is not around to see it, having been whisked away to attend some control room-drama and returning after the fact. And then there’s the issue of the film’s music. The action score is a decent facsimile of Bruckheimer, while its romantic theme is cribbed from Forrest Gump. I’m not kidding. It really is the score from Forrest Gump.
