This film tries so hard to have the fantastical wonder of a Ghibli feature as well as the stunning imagery commonly found in the works of Makoto Shinkai. From the design of the weird animal characters to the confusing and random nature of the plot, Satellite Girl and Milk Cow falls flat as a flaccid lump of derivative drivel.
The one-dimensional characters bumble along spewing generic, uninspired dialog while occasionally scuffling with an anthropomorphic incinerator and an unshaven organ harvester wielding a toilet plunger; all the while filling in the paint-by-numbers requirements for a romantic relationship reminiscent of a corny 80s sitcom.
From what I can tell, the overall plot is original. But this doesn't make the film any good.
