The highly anticipated drama featuring Kimura Takuya in a pilot related drama. Kimura Takuya plays the character of Shinkai Hajime, a person who has dreamed about being a pilot. One day from a flight back from Honolulu, the captain is feeling unwell and a emergency landing needs to be made, Hajime takes control and makes a landing but unfortunately people are not happy with Hajime making that move and there are people who try to derail Hajime from realizing his dream to become a pilot. [From
Daily Yomiuri, Jan. 30, 2003, Wm. Penn]: The TBS network
could not have found a better good-luck charm than Takuya
Kimura. His new series, the aptly named Good Luck!! (Sundays
at 9 p.m.), checked in with opening night ratings of 31.6
percent, according to Video Research data. That is the
third highest first episode rating of the past decade.
The two that topped it were also Kimura hits--Hero and
Beautiful Life.
Ko
Shibasaki provides the romantic interest in his life.
She plays an ANA mechanic. It would be interesting to
get some figures on just how many female mechanics the
airlines employ in real life, but in this fictional world,
equality reigns. STARRING:
Kimura Takuya, Tsutsumi Shinichi, Shibasaki Kou, Uchiyama
Rina, Yoon Son Na, Kuroki Hitomi, Kouda Kazuki, Ogawa
Ayumi, Kato Takako, Kaname Jun, Ichikawa Miwako, Azumi
Shinichiro, Nakao Akiyoshi, Takenaka Naoto, Ikariya Chosuke
and more. In the first week, this drama scored a 31.6% rating. The third highest drama rating in the new millenium and each of those three dramas feature actor Kimura Takuya. The second week was a 27.6%, again trouncing the competition including the higher rated NHK dramas and long running dramas. This drama is very enjoyable and Kimura Takuya proves again to naysayers, that his dramas rock!-KNDY Copyright � 1993-2011
