It is...dissembling to use "we" to express a personal opinion. If you want to say you find Japanese film "lovable and cute," do so.
I know of no worhwhile critic who views Kurosawa, Kinugasa, Ichikawa, and other Japanese directors as anything but world-class artists. It is almost embarrrassing to mention it.
(Quite often, on the other hand, I have seen favorable opinions about Russian films which obviously discount the souless nature of the communist and his post-Peter the Great veneer of Western civilization.) (:---->))
