First Gentleman movie review: Miki Nakatani plays Japan’s prime minister in comedy with shockingly regressive views on gender roles
- The idea of a woman becoming the Japanese prime minister is apparently so preposterous that this comedy centres around the idea
- Miki Nakatani plays the female politician, while Kei Tanaka plays her incompetent and bumbling husband in this anachronistic sexist travesty
