    Paradise Kiss had been in my to-watch list for quite some time and it was a good movie. I have not seen the anime or anything so just as a movie, it was a good watch. I have a thing for chick flicks and this movie is just that.

    With quite a simple story and even simpler characters, it was delightful to watch. This is another no-brainer, but a nice one nonetheless. I am not fond of anime humour getting injected in every Japanese film or drama, so this one was good for a change in that aspect. The actors were good and I really liked the chemistry between the two leads. Also, this movie lives upto its name 'Paradise Kiss'. It has a couple of

    After listening to korean for such a long time, it was great to see something in jap. I really liked this movie, I've been waiting for a lot of time to watch it, and it was definitely worth it. It is a fun light movie.



    The story was great, the cast too, although in some parts I regret to say that Kitagawa's acting wasn't so good. The music was very according to the movie. I'll definitely rewatch this movie sometime soon with a friend. Overall, a seven.



    I enjoyed watching this movie so much that I'll watch the anime, because I've heard that the anime fans weren't happy with the outcome of the movie, so I'll watch to be able

    I love the anime even if the ending was so... SIGH. ç.ç
    I still prefer the anime but I admit that watching this happy ending (movie's) was really touching and yeah, heartbreaking (WHY, WHYYY THE ANIME IS NOT LIKE THAT?).

    I didn't like the movie, especially the main female role. But I have to admit that the ending was pretty good.

    I have watched the anime long before I saw this movie, and I have to say that I prefer the anime. But one thing that was really different was the ending, I liked it a lot, because that was the kind of ending I had been hoping for in the anime, haha :)

    its good, but the anime is better.
  • Maisweetlove Aug 12, 2012
    This is one of the best movies I've ever watched. It had everything I love packed into it (fashion and a guy like Mukai Osamu <3 :P) I loved the cast, the storyline and especially the ending. :D

    How come I just watched this precious gem now?? Why??? Especially the anime! Imagine! They have an anime for this!! geezz... I-am-so-not-updated-and-a-shounen-freak! -.-

    Anyways, this show is truly a precious gem! Well, I didn't watched the anime nor read the manga yet so.. I think i am being biased here. but who cares? i'll watched them the next time my eyes will land in my laptop. lol ;D

    They casted a perfect leading lady. And I realized the Mukai is just and I hope will not be forever, a flower boy. I mean, I think other flower boy out there will do the same job only better because they will make it more heart felt. Like who? uhm, like Hiro Mizushima? Or even Matsumoto. :D

    Anyone else think Mukai Osamu looks like Ueda from KAT-TUN in that picture?? ^^

    Paradise Kiss is my all-time favorite manga. So it's hard to separate myself from that fact. Looking at the movie independently though, it's just not very good. They don't develop the characters enough to make you identify or care for them. As a fan of the manga, it was cool to see George's key creation come to life! It was also very well cast (except for Hiro, which was an awful cast decision), and the script was nice as well. But the story itself was too shallow for me.

    i just wish anime had ended like this one..movie was not bad either..
  • changminnion Jul 8, 2012
    My first Japanese Movie. And I must say.. It was pretty different from Korean stuff. And it was fun, pointless and the main leads had me falling in love with them.

    The girl was not annoying for a change. I loved her.
    I'd say watch it and you won't regret it.

    I've seen the anime and I'm having second thoughts on watching it since I don't want it to have an unsatisfying ending.
