This movie is AMAZING!! I just loved every single minute of it. This movie really makes me want to call all my friends and tell them how much I love them and no matter what they will always be the most important people in my life. Watching this movie made me really jealous because even though they haven't seen each other in so long, they were able to find each other and become friends again. I wonder if in the future, will I still be able to be with my friends? Will they still be my friends? This movie has taught me that we shouldn't take advantage of our life because we don't know what happens tomorrow. We should spend every minute of everyday like it is our last. We should spend it with the people we love the most. This movie is very touching.

Brilliant. Confessions. A movie that I came across, I honestly didn't expect to like it but Confessions was an amazing movie, from the beginning to end. Just when you think you've figured out what happened a few minutes pass by and you realize you haven't. It's a movie where you hear confessions from different people including students and as you hear every little detail you realize that they were in fact not innocent at all and that they had a dark side to them. You hear every confession and then, at the end of the movie, you put all the pieces together and you have what really happened or what I should say what happened 'behind the scenes.' By the end of the movie I had but one question, who should I pity because everyone had a part in the crime. And the end of the movie, it was wrapped up magnificently.
What you thought was, was not.

I have just finished watching this movie and I really like it. I think that the actors portrayed their roles very well, especially Tabe Mikako [Sawako] who not only looks scary but also very cute and sweet. Sometimes it was really funny watching her because she does not know much about love but it was even nicer to see how much she cares for her friends. Miura Haruma [Kazehaya] was also very sweet sometimes and I really wish there were more guys like him.
One thing that disappointed me a bit was the ending. Even though it would not fit Sawako's character very well if something big had happened, I wanted it to be more special.
Furthermore I wanted to know what happened between Ryuu and Chizuru afterwards. It would have been so nice to know ...
All in all I enjoyed this movie a lot maybe because I have not watched the anime yet and cannot compare. Anyway, I think the movie is worth watching and maybe I will rewatch it in a few weeks (:

I was pretty excited and anxious to watch this movie. I'm not sure what it was that made me disappointed about it..maybe because I have expected too much about this movie and it didn't reach my expectation. I mean, when I've read the reviews and how popular it was all over it was..I really have a high expectation. Maybe you'll ask me what have I expected though? Well, I thought that it be as good, if not much better, than the drama "Secret Garden". I know, I know. Secret Garden is a drama and this is a movie, what I mean is the level of acting..the story..and all. Honestly, the only thing that's really good about it are the actors and the title is pretty catchy but the movie itself, I don't know. I really didn't enjoyed it and it bored me. Really.

Let me preface this by saying I am a hardcore kimi wa petto fan with matsujun. (he was sooo cute!) I would also like to mention that although I liked Geun Seok, I really felt hat he was too handsome and not cute enough. However when I watched the movie I became a fan, not enough to topple kimi wa petto, but enough to be a hair’s difference.
First are the comparisions. They have the same concept, but in kimi wa petto I still feel that matsumoto jun was way cuter, like puppy dog cute, but JGs was the kind of puppy you could see as a man. The chemistry between Ha Neul and JGS was like brother sister and she didn’t start off as cold as the lady from kimi wa petto- maybe because a drama has more time. Still, the movie brought out some points that the drama didn’t touch on, and although they are very similar, it almost feels like a different story.
I really like how they pretty much let JGS get manish from day one, so when the transition from pet to man came it didn’t seem so awkward. I didn’t like that there were some holes in the plot (I filled them in myself from kimi wa petto), and I also didn’t like how JGS’s goal was so sketchy and undefined. ballet to musicals? really?? his dancing seemed a bit stiff, and a bit much, but singing was heavenly. (but they did show off his singing, so yea! i missed it after YAB.)
All in all I would definitely watch again I liked all the eye candy, and the concept from the drama. If it can convert an Arashi, matsujun fan girl like me, it will be fun for all.

I think by now everyone knows the story behind High School Musical. This movie is a Chinese adaption of the original high school musical movie. With Chen Zi Han starring as Ning Ning, The chinese version of the schoolbright girl who has an urge to reach towards the stars to find her way into the music world.

I was actually pretty surprised when watching this movie. Originally, Yes I was a fan of the original HSM when it arrived aswell, And allthough the plot is pretty much the same in both movies I feel that this version was more mature than the original made by Disney. Music in the show with all different syles added. From the most beautiful ballads to the most lively hiphop songs. This movie is sure to have music for everyone to enjoy. The Movie's message being; ''We're all in this together'' It was better displayed in this version.

Ning Ning is a girl who's recently moved into the neighborhood and so she is transfering schools along with it. With Strict parents not allowing her to have a boyfriend, and forcing her to constantly study, She reaches secretly for the stars in order to find something new that she can do. Surprised to find her hands leading her the way towards ''Poet'', The Basketball Teams captain with simillar dreams as hers, Here on starts a romance who will have its share of difficulties awaiting ahead.
..Will Ning Ning and Poet's love be able to take it?

In this movie you'll face romance, comedy and drama in genres.
Its a pretty good movie, I actually fullheartedly believe, despite of me liking the original filmseries too, This movie is better.
Its a movie I'd recommend to all music and romance lovers.
Depite of the plots of the movies being exactly the same, The movies are nothing alike.. Both fans and people who didn't like the original series will enjoy this.

With a satisfying soundtrack, I feel that this remake is as good as it could have been. It even beats the original in several aspects.. The rewatch value is high, I know I'll be re-watching this later atleast..
