Viewers generally find 'Wasabi' to be a delightful blend of humor, action, and emotion, with Jean Reno's performance particularly praised for adding a significant charm. The film's pacing keeps it engaging, and its comedic elements are consistently highlighted as a highlight. However, some find the plot a bit thin and the portrayal of certain characters, especially the daughter, as underdeveloped. The setting in Japan adds visual appeal but isn't fully utilized in the storyline.
👍 Jean Reno's performance is a standout.
👎 Plot might feel underdeveloped to some.
