 A slapstick comedy, about a goofy middle-aged man who is obsessed with the idea of having car sex. While pursuing his 'dream', he makes all the wrong moves possible, and ends up enrolling in a number of crazy escapades.
Takeshi Kitano made an international name for himself for directing films of great emotional subtlety and technical innovation such as Hana-Bi and Sonatine. This film displays none of those traits. Directed under his comedian moniker "Beat Takeshi," Kitano displays the bawdy schtick that made him famous with this gleefully stupid tale about one man's attempt at getting laid. Asao (Dannkann) wakes up one morning from a dream in which he's seen as a hipster shagging a beautiful woman in the back of a really cool car. He immediately sets out to the local car dealership and asks the salesman which vehicle would be best suited for "car sex." Soon he exits the lot with a little sportster and promptly fails at picking up a cute girl he sees on the street. After a series of comic mishaps, ending finally with this car getting crushed by a truck, he goes to plan B ? to steal enough money to fly first class and test his seductive luck with the stewardesses. When robbing a bank fails, he takes up acting in a Zatoichi-like samurai film only to accidentally dump dung on every one of his fellow actors. Finally, after humiliating and exhausting himself trying to get the attention of the opposite sex, he tries to become invisible and embark on a career as a peeping tom. Improbably, he does, getting more than he bargained for.
Asao and women just do not mix. From dusk to dawn, all he thinks about is doing the dirty deed. One morning, Asao wakes up from a vision of a man doing it with a gorgeous, righteous woman in his super slick car. Asao is convinced; beautiful ladies love a man with a car. He goes straight to a very exclusive car dealer and asks, "do you have a car I can have ca sex in. " He sits in the car and grabs on the wheel feeling the comfort level but his biggest concern is money. Reality check. Asao drives away from the dealer with a super tiny auto. Confident in getting together with a girl, Asao cruise for chicks in his newly acquired "machine." Far from his expectations, he is turned down left and right. On top of being rejected, Asao's machine is crushed by a dump truck.
Feeling a little down, he looks up into the sky and sees a jumbo airplane. Asao's imagination goes to work as he visions a first class passenger getting special treatment from the flight attendant. Popular guy = First class passenger = guy with money. Asao inspired with the notion of money thinks of a plan to rob a bank.
Having failed in everything, Asao comes up with another inspiration. By becoming a famous actor, women will be begging to have sex with him. He goes to an audition and lands a part in a movie. Unhappy with the minor part, Asao attempts to establish himself on the screen by popping up in unwanted places and gets no respect. By a freak accident (which Asao is a part of) the lead actor falls ill and is replaced by Asao. Asao is blessed with a chance of a life time but he screws this up too.
Asao dazed from all this experience is approached by a questionable looking doctor with a banner, "Party to promote invisible man" and is persuaded to join in on the experiment but ...
