Topping the Japanese box office for seven consecutive weeks, Hero is Japan’s big blockbuster of 2007, and it comes with no special effects. Hero started out in 2001 as an immensely popular Fuji TV serial, one of the top ten rated Japanese dramas of all time. Ratings guarantee Kimura Takuya (Love and Honor) gave a memorable turn as a laidback public prosecutor with ripped jeans, unconventional working methods, and a weakness for television mail order junk. The drama was resurrected in 2006 for a TV special that proved every bit as popular, paving the way for this blockbuster big-screen adaptation.

Director Suzuki Masayuki, who helmed the original television series, takes Hero to the big screen, picking up the story right after the television special. The production was upgraded to include a trip to South Korea to see Korean star Lee Byung Hun (A Bittersweet Life), but for the most part, the film wisely sticks to the drama’s winning formula, right down to Kimura Takuya’s tan winter coat. The whole crew of bumbling, but competent prosecutors from the original series are present and accounted for including Abe Hiroshi (The Sword of Alexander), Otsuka Nene (Limit of Love: Umizaru), Yashima Norito, Katsumura Masanobu, Kohinata Fumiyo (Soredemo Boku wa Yattenai), and of course Matsu Takako (Tokyo Tower: Mom & Me, and Sometimes Dad). Styled as an atypical courtroom and investigative drama, Hero is certainly the year’s most down-to-earth blockbuster, charming its way through the box office with quirky, feel-good humor and charismatic performances that appeal to both fans and newcomers to the franchise.

After six years away, D.A. Kuryu Kohei (Kimura Takuya) returns to his former Tokyo Johei office, just in time for a brewing storm. Kohei’s first case starts out simple enough. The suspect, a blonde-haired security guard, had already confessed to manslaughter, but he suddenly retracts his confession and takes things to court with big-shot defense attorney Gamo (Matsumoto Koshiro). It turns out that the security guard is a key alibi witness in a high-profile political corruption case, and the results of his case will directly affect the next. With the media, politicians, and a special investigative team breathing down his back, Kohei must handle the case with care (and flair) to find out the truth.
