Reviews
Don't hesitate
This is one of the best Japanese romance dramas this year. Although it seems to have flown under the radar, it has been appreciated in various film festivals with nominations for the director as well as the casts ( all four main cast won the newcomer award at the Yokohama Film Festival).At first glance it might seem like a no substance romance drama but the story, while seemingly simple, draws you in.
The dialogues are snappy & contains inspiration from it's manga counterpart, with slight fantasy elements sprinkled in that doesn't seem out of place. Moreover the synergy from the four main casts are amazing.
It makes you look forward for the director's next work.
It’s good
The first time I watched it looked quite boring but as time went on I really enjoyed it and didn't feel like I had watched it to the end. I like their acting, what's more, Nanase Nisino here adds a plus from all aspects. Maybe you can say I enjoy watching because there is Nanase Nisino too, the male character plays a clumsy character because he never gets affection from his parents, but overall according to I think this movie is a good movie and has a good ending. I highly recommend this movie if you are looking for a movie to watch in your spare time. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do :) .
