Critic Reviews for The Naked Director Season 1
All Critics (2) | Top Critics (0) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (0)
The eight-episode series seeks the sweet spot between wild, almost-slapstick comedy and the technical prowess of American prestige TV - and fearlessly depicts the type of taboo smut that fueled Muranishi's notoriety.
The Naked Director tries to strike a balance between raucous sex comedy and action-packed underworld narrative in this tale of a pornographic revolution.

Sep 05, 2019Some episodes are fun and have an interesting script, but in general this season is almost a tribute to Muranishi films: amateurish.

Aug 23, 2019Finally, real work coming to Japan. Thank you Netflix. 俳優陣の迫真の演技に震えた。特に主役の山田孝之は凄すぎる。本当にこれが日本のドラマなのか！？。音楽、カメラ、脚本、演出、どれも海外の作品に引けをとらず面白い。この作品を新たな始まりとして日本の作品がより良くなることを切に願う。
