Blue Giant reviews

Blue Giant holds a 7.8/10 average from 103 TMDB ratings.

Picking up a saxophone and leaving his sleepy hometown for the bustling nightclubs of Tokyo, Dai will find that the life of a professional musician isn’t for the faint of heart, as he must confront what it truly means to be great.
