I don't really like war movies, usually I get sleepy and they seem quite boring to me. 71: Into the Fire was totally different from what I have seen before. Even without any knowledge of Korean history it is simple to watch (I mean there are no long discussions about politics, no fillers just the plot itself). All actors did their best too - there weren't any of "I don't believe in his play" moments. After I turned on this movie I even didn't noticed when it was already over. I will definitely rewatch it!
And my advice for those who haven't seen it - if you like GOOD movies watch it.
P.S. And If you like T.O.P. - DEFINITELY WATCH IT :D He is awesome

I want to say that I've been watching Asian movies and Dramas for 2 years now and that this is my first review. This means that that movie is highly recomended by me! It has a unique storyline and both of the leading roles have greatly mastered their characters and that can be easily seen by the emotions they bring forth. It is centered around classical music so if you are a fan of it I garantee that you will really enjoy it and if you aren't a fan I believe that this movie will change your mind. Once again I want to recomend "Secret". It has a lot of messages to deliver!

This 5th Takumi-kun film is probably my favorite out of all them so far. Daisuke and Hamao feel more realistic and comfortable with each other than they ever have, and it makes the movie much more pleasant to watch as you can feel the emotions they are giving off. Their acting may not be the best to ever feature in Japanese media, but this time around I think they've hit their peak.

It's the same old Takumi you love, only this time it was a little more fleshed out. It seems like the same old Takumi problems, but for some reason it was much more interesting to watch. The music was, as always, wonderful and well used at appropriate times.

The story wasn't the best this time around but Daisuke and Hamao's acting really did make up for it, in my opinion.

The one thing that always bothered me in this series, this one included, are the flashbacks. They are oftentimes refilmed and rarely are you given any clue that what you are watching is a flashback. They could definitely execute them much better.

Other than that, I will greatly miss Daisuke and Hamao in this series! They certainly grew from the 2nd to 5th movies and you can see it for yourselves in this great film.

words didn't describe how excited i was for this movie when i first heard about it's making back when HYD2 ended. I may be biased because the Japanese version of Boys Over Flowers is my favorite but this was one of the best Japanese movies I have ever watched (: with a great ending may I add.

The story was well planned out and a fantastic conclusion to the Hana Yori Dango series.

As I did the first and second season, i adore this cast. and Akira also played a sort of villain pretty well. Matsumoto Jun's chemistry with Inoue Mao is incredible and they have always been my favorite drama couple. The way they act with each other..it just makes me so happy!

the soundtrack to this movie is also great. love love love Arashi's song One Love.

I'm still sad that this series is complete but it's also nice to come back to this movie, you can't help but smile at the end (:

I liked everything about this movie - It was gave us a refreshing storyline with a little bit of everything thrown into it, and did it in a timely manner. It was such a sweet story. There were some heart wrenching parts but the good out weighed the bad. It's perfectly paced and for ONCE I didn't feel that anything was rushed. The main female is an excellent actress, and I literally had to Google if she was blind in real life or not; She's really convincing. The couple, They're too cute for words. It was an awesome story packed full of heart, that left me satisfied with everything until the very end.

WoW!!!! I norally not write reviews, only if i really like the drama or the movie. I love this Movie!!!! this movie got me thinking and trying to solve it. Like what will happen next... why did this happen. overall love it. but the part that made me loved it the most what the end. what happen at the end made my mouth dropped. For three reasons. one: beacuse of what happen to the girl and the way she ended up. second: their story; that they beem apart for so long. end the last one: how the guy goes to play the music piece and... what happen to him :( but at the end they were togther. Another reason why i liked this movie is all the events that happen at first when you watch it, it might seen that the girl is as normal as everybody else but when finally at the end they tell the story and the guy knnows that not just anymore can see her.she doesnt seen that normal.

My Favorite Part:
* when the main guy has a challenge with " the prince of piano" i think thats what his nickname they give him. the way the characters play the piano, mostly beacuse i like playing the piano.


why i would recommened this movie: if you like classic music and like the piano and i very good good end you would like this movie!!!

This movie is so famous. I heard a lot of praise about it from my friend and watched it a few weeks ago.

The story is thoroughly cliche but I did like the beginning. Compared to the parents' story, I would have preferred to know more about the present day love story. They focused too much on the 70s era and too less on the present day. I understood the love from the 70s but the present one hardly had any basis to fall in love.

Although the cinematography looks good, the screenplay is boring. Also I was not happy with the editing and the direction was clumsy in parts. I expected better from this movie and had to skip a few parts.

I would not watch it again, but anyone looking for a pure and innocent kind of love story- here it is for you.

This movie is at first quite a typical ghost horror movie. Some may get bored, but the excitement starts when you get deeper in the story. The actors pulled this off really great, because you can see very long scenes, without any cuts and it's somehow very real. We can see Mirai's and Haruna's true selves. At least it looks like it.
The story is maybe a bit shallow and not too interesting, but the climax is really great and I think this part makes this film an unique one. I won't say more, just watch this movie to the end. To the VERY end.

About rating the music...how can I rate when there wasn't any music? XD
