= SUMMARY
~ RECOMMENDED TO

++++++ POSITIVES ++++++
+ Considering that this is supposed to have a light feeling of weirdness to it and was made to have loads of overreactions and anime like features, the acting was not that bad. I found the female actress quite charming in the was she was handling her role and I completely fell in love with her cuteness and her voice.

+ The chemistry is pretty good between the characters and their backgrounds were clear enough to grasp fast.

+ Some scenes were very beautiful

+ It has a nice comedic touch to it but at the same time it gets you involved enough to sympathize with the characters.

+ The sound track fit the movie well and nothing stood out too much to make it uncomfortable.

---------- NEGATIVES ----------
- Only the two main characters felt like real characters because of their past. I wish they would have gone in deeper into the conflicts and such but since this is a light hearted movie, I guess they went as deep as they could.

- The characters didn't really have a stable development. It all felt pretty rushed and sometimes illogical. For a two hour film, they could have made a more stable development in both personalities and relationships, at a more comfortable pace.

- Some of the shots were very beautiful because the sun was included but I have to admit... there was too much sun included. The shot seemed so washed out and you could barely see what was happening on the screen.

====== SUMMARY =======
So although the acting isn't what you would call "high-class" it was pretty good. The characters were charming and they had very nice chemistry together. Although this is a lighthearted movie, the writers made sure to include some heart breaking moments from the characters past and let it play out in a way that let the viewer sympathize with the character. The character development could have been better and could have been presented at a more comfortable pace considering how long this movie is, I feel like they had plenty of time.

~~~~~~ RECOMMENDED TO ~~~~~~~
I recommend this to people who like light hearted, slightly childish, romantic but yet careful movies. It has kind of an anime like twist on it with exaggerated reactions here and there, slightly reminds you of a Disney movie and even includes one musical number. That is just in the beginning though. As we walk deeper into the story it takes a more serious turn on a lighter level. If you're afraid of crying or being heart broken, don't fret, this will not cause you any pain. It's a feel good love story that might brighten your day.

ENJOY~~~
