Incredibly touching, 1 August 2005
9/10
Author: Aleksi Sorjonen (Soggo) from Finland

I've always adored Asia. Since I was about 5 years old. This goes especially for Japan. So I guess it's kind of natural that I got drawn to Japanese movies. I've always been a great fan of drama films and why not romance too.

I started to watch this movie without knowing anything about it. The first minute caught my eye right away. The view was beautiful and the music was incredible too. I thought: "This has to be a great film!" So I watched the movie in one breath. It got me, totally. It's a movie to make even the toughest man cry like a baby. Every scene looks beautiful, every dialogue has a deep meaning (at least I found one.) The music is just what the movie needs. The ending surprised me as it was a little bit longer than to be assumed, but it didn't ruin anything. It covered a few holes and made it look good.

If you like touching drama movies, if you like romance even a bit, This is just the movie for you.
