Micransix Crappy film

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

DCfan This movie is about two childhood friends by the names of Takaki and Akari, who deeply had feels for one another during their school years. However, Takaki had to movie to Tokyo because of his parents so he becomes distant from the one he loves. Then one day he gets a letter and he decides to reunite with her.In next segment this story focus on Kanae who is figuring out what she wants to do later on, but at the same time she wants to confess how she feels to her crush Takaki. However, Takaki also has other plans and shown text someone who Kanae does not know.The shows use whats happens to both Akari and Takaki as they both got older.The plot of the story is very interesting and does hold a strong message about how not everything may go as you want and somethings you just have to accept as grow up. Which is the strongest part in the story. My only complaint was that there wasn't a segment or two to focus on Akari more then Takaki as she is one of the lead characters in this movie.The use of background colours, art style, animation and character designs are very detailed and interesting. Once when they are all put together then you can see that it works very well.In terms of the dub it was very good but if I had to choose then I would choose the Bang Zoom!:The reason being is because I felt that David Matranga just didn't fit the characters whatsoever and he just sound too deep and too old for Takaki regardless of whatever age the character was. Which is why I feel Johnny Yong Bosch was more for the ages of the character and actually added more emotions to Takaki.Hilary Haag was actually good as Akari. However, I felt just as personal preference Tara Platt and Erika Weinstein were much better.Serena Varghese just sounded too off as Kanae, I know the voice actress if from an Indian and I am not trying to be racist or anything but the accent that she used just didn't do the character any good. Which why I think Kira Buckland was a far better choose to voice Kanae.Unlike what Disney did to Arrietty this is probably the first time where I think a redub was actually better than it's original.Unpopular opinion but I actually think this movie is better than Your Name. Don't get me wrong Your Name was good movie with interesting art style and animation, with an interesting dub cast. But what Your Name didn't have was development or the two characters having chemistry with one another as they were rarely seen together. You have a 1 hour and 45 minutes movie only to have a lack of chemistry with the two main characters. Not hating on Your Name or anything but I am just simply indifferent to and sharing the problem I think with it which is why I prefer Patema Inverted, A silent voice and this movie over it.At least with this movie we actually see that chemistry with the two main characters.As an overall this is an excellent and I would give it a watch.

NEON POLTERGEIST The name art and artists gets thrown around too easily So I just had to write a Review here. I'm an illustrator and artist myself and Different artists see Beauty or dark in different things and Creation is both an armor and a weapon to express or something other. It's really impossible to label It, Not all Thinks alike. When it comes to anime (japanese animation) the art of Akira, wolf Children and many of the ghibli is more Beautiful too me personally. And has more creativity and thoughts behind it to make an unforgettabe yourney.I'm not saying 5cm per second is bad in any way. It's just not even near the best film I've seen. visiually stunning animation doesn't make a whole Movie. The first chapter hooked me in. It was subtle and romantic. And I definitely got a bit melancolic and missed japan. But That magic ended in chapter 2 and 3. THe Music was boring, I didn't like how the story unfolded and I became very irritaded with the characters missing all opportunities. towards the end. 5 Cm per second is a good Little snoose 'with Beautiful animations. But it isn't even on my top 50 list of best animated Movies ever. I watched it once. And feel no need to see it again. that's why I only give it 3 stars.

Zach West The start makes for a brilliant opening, 2 childhood friends move away from each other and write letters to keep in contact, setting the way for a beautiful story of friendship and love, but as the story progresses the main character and heroine drift apart. Not bad as this makes for a great set up to a reunion. A reunion that never happens. the MC slowly drifts into depression in the third part as well as never meeting the main heroine again. the final scene is one of the most annoying scenes I've seen, on par with the ending to "Kimi no iru machi" as it tempts you with closure between the two and then ends without a single word or look between them. The whole films feels like a waste of time by the end of it as although the film seems to aim for "Well life sucks sometimes" approach, it comes off as if the film is unfinished.

SquigglyCrunch 5 Centimeters Per Second is an animated 'romance' that follows a boy and girl who were in love for a time and shows how they eventually grew apart and what happened to each one afterwards, told in 3 short episodes. I put the word romance in brackets because that aspect of the movie is relatively unimportant, but other than drama there is no other real way to categorize this movie, or trilogy of short films, whatever you want to call it. I would still call it a romance, but the romance is barely evident throughout the movie really. The art style in this movie was pretty good. It didn't stray from the norms of anime styles, but it was different enough to make it look somewhat special. Everything else is pretty unpleasant. Honestly, I found little enjoyment in this movie. The plot is...I got no clue, honestly. It was just people living life who had been connected at some point. Don't get me wrong, I love movies about people living life. But this one just didn't try to be anything special. For an anime especially, it was pretty lacking in originality. The characters were pretty terrible, and while they were definitely the main focus of this movie, they suffered tremendously. Not that their characters suffered, but that they were just awful. They were unrelatable, uninteresting, un-engaging, etc. As far as anime characters go they were the most average ones I've ever seen. The awkward girl who blushes all the time and is convinced that she loves the main character (despite still being in grade school), the main male who has the attention-span of a small yapping dog and the intelligence of a dying cabbage field, and our lead female who just cries and looks pretty, all of whom can't stop grunting and moaning with pleasure or displeasure (which one it is isn't always clear) for no apparent reason. This is a problem I've had with a lot of anime. Nobody grunts that much, and especially in a movie like this where I can't think of a single reason why they would even be grunting, it makes it hard to take any of them seriously. Most of the time the grunting doesn't bother me, but it did in this movie. At least in the other anime it was pretty clear why they were doing it in the first place. They're all pretty unrealistic characters too, they do things that no human being would ever do, simply because it's anime and not making sense makes sense in an anime. Not only that, but the movie itself is about as interesting as it's characters, as in it's not. For a 1 hour movie it certainly has trouble holding the audience's attention. I was so incredibly bored by this movie. And it's not like in 'It's Such a Beautiful Day' where I expected it to be over quick so it felt longer. I barely processed the fact that this movie was so short, and even if it was paced well it still would have sucked. At the beginning of the movie I figured that it was boring because the director had so little material to work with so he was stretching it out, but by the end of the movie I saw some decent potential in it. But that potential never seemed to be realized, and instead we got this thing. Overall 5 Centimeters Per Second isn't very good. Visually it's kind of cool, but it fails on every other level with flat and uninteresting characters, a poorly presented plot, and bad pacing. I think that this movie could have been good, but nothing was developed as well as it should have been. In the end I would never recommend this movie, nor would I ever watch it again.
