Dive!!

Not since Waterboys has there been a Japanese movie showing such cute boys in such skimpy trunks.

Director: Naoto Kumazawa
Cast: Kento Hayashi, Sosuke Ikematsu, Junpei Mizobata, Asaka Seto, Misako Renbutsu, Ken Mitsuishi, Toru Emori

In Japanese with subtitles

Oh… my… gaawwd… Look at these slender Japanese boys walking around in teeny weeny trunks. If you happen to be a gay man, it’s enough to keep your loins warm throughout for the whole movie. Pardon our frankness and lack of inhibition, but the lack of clothes on these cute boys frankly cannot go unmentioned. This is one film whose ticket and DVD sales should soar on the strength of the pink dollar alone.

Dive!! – the two exclamation marks are absolutely necessary, in our opinion – stars doe-eyed twink Kento Hayashi as an ordinary boy who is hooked on the sport of diving. After he observes young Sosuke Ikemaytsu, son of a diving coach, execute the perfect dive, he decides to join the Mizuki Diving Club to train alongside Sosuke. A third diver, the young and wild Junpei Mizobata, also joins the club. Hmmm… threesome… yum…

However, the club’s survival is in question. Unless it is able to produce an Olympic-standard diver within a year’s time, the club will be closed. Dive!! tracks the boys’ trials and tribulations (and trunks) as they work hard to make the grade.

Based on a popular Japanese novel series for teenagers, Dive!! is earnestly directed by Naoto Kumazawa whose keen understanding of athletic ambition as well as teenage struggles serves the movie well. The brevity of the swimming trunks aside, the movie paints a very convincing portrait of the sportsmen and their families. The diving scenes are quite spectacular too.

A must-see for gay men, straight women and sports lovers. Did we miss anyone out?
