Searching for your true identity., 3 December 2007
9/10
Author: 8thSin from Tokyo

A life-altering movie about a girl Juri AKA Kotori instructing Kanako AKA Hina how to live her life through emails by cell phone.

The story itself is actually quite close to "Nobuta. wo Produce", but done in a completely different setting. This movie has a very nice flow, one thing happens after another, and there are no filler scenes of any kind. Very well-acted by two (visually pleasant) new-generation lead actresses Narumi Riko (Juri) and Maeda Atsuko (Kanako). It took a while to get used to it, but it's directed in a very unique style that works very well. The music (OST) for this movie was outstanding. It's the first time "Sasaki Yuri" is in charge of music for a movie, everyone remember this name, she'll definitely be back! The only reason this film is not 10/10 is because there is a ten minute sequence that I felt were a bit over-sentimental, but still, an excellent, life-altering film.

This is a movie I really wish I saw 10 years ago.
