I must admit that when I started watching this I thought it seems like an average Carry On... movie, which I don't find at all amusing. I almost switched it off. However, I am glad that I persevered as it gets better and better. I ended up thoroughly enjoying it.
It's a very well made movie with plenty of laughs and good character portrayals. If you're in the mood for a break from reality and a good laugh I recommend this little gem.
Plot summary
Flighty young nurse Izumi Asakura longs to have her honeymoon in a far off tropical paradise but her doctor husband feels that he cannot afford to take time off from developing his career. To Izumi's dismay, Wakabakai General Hospital is fast becoming a far less pleasant place to work, thanks to the appointment of a militaristic chief nurse who demands steadfast adherence to protocol. Things get much worse, however, via the arrival of Saruwatari, a hypochondriac desperate to be re-admitted so that he can enjoy the attentions of nurse Shoko Ozaki. When the chief nurse has him ejected by security, Saruwatari comes back armed and takes everyone on the floor hostage. Shoko happened to be on her lunch break at the time and has trouble getting back into the building when the police swarm around it en masse. The authorities are not sure just how to deal with the situation, though, since the "victims" seem to be taking things far less seriously than they are.

Better than Carry On!
Not So Good
I won't recommend this movie to anyone since it's not a good movie. The whole story is nonsense although sometimes it's quite funny. However I don't like the story because it's not focus in the couple's story but it has too many characters. Fujiki is quite funny but not that funny and the whole movie seemed rubbish especially the ending,it didn't explain much when she's survived from the shot. I feel deep regret after buy this movie. Actually it isn't that bad if the story can be more focused in the couple's story and make it makes sense. Hope they will make better movie.
A shameful for Japan movies that usually good, this one is terrible.
This movie was SO funny!
I don't know why anyone would give this movie a bad review. Sure the plot is really silly sometimes, but the whole goal of the movie is to make you laugh, and to me that was just fine. I did that a lot. It has many small sketch-type of moments, so if you enjoy physical/slapstick and sometimes goofy humor, and sketch comedy shows like Monty python, Mad TV, SNL, or Who's Line Is It Anyway, this is a good movie for you to watch. :)
The plot involves a hospital with many nurses, and of course there are one or two nurses who really stand out of the crowd. The main character is a nurse who always seems to be breaking the rules or having something unfortunate happen to her. She is at odds with the lead nurse who is always reprimanding her for breaking the rules but actually has a warm heart and cares deeply about her. There is some romantic tension between the main character and one of the doctors. And when a disgruntled patient returns to the hospital with more on his mind than a check up, watch out!
