Daytime Shooting Star (2017) User Reviews

Good enough

[PennyReviews · 6/10 · 3 November 2017]

A movie that seemed to be predictable, but turned out that it wasn't. The ending was the best part of the whole movie, but actually I enjoyed the chemistry between the girl and her two boys. Overall the story wasn't that bad, though it wasn't something you haven't watched before. At least, it was cute and sweet, though it did move a bit fast. The acting was nice as well, simple and not too over the top that manga based movies usually tend to have. So 6 out of 10.

Improvement from series!

When I first read Daytime Shooting Star I did not like it. The characters were bland and the romance wasn't there. I mainly read it just to see this movie. So, finally watching this movie, I found it to be even better! It's comical and the characters are written much better here. I love that Mamura doesn't call her an idiot (but he did call her stupid, which annoyed me), Suzume was better with her emotions in this, and the romance was cute. I also loved the scenery! However, I was upset they didn't include the scenes I loved between certain characters: the huge fight with Yukichi and Shishio; Suzume and Nekota's crying scene where they have a heart to heart; the aquarium scene with Suzume and Shishio; even the ending with the hospital-fall from a bike? Really? A very pleasant surprise.

A great movie

As a young adult I enjoyed this movie. Sure it was a little high school-ish but I expected it. Still they acted pretty grown up with life's lessons so that was good. Loved the two leads the most but all the actors did a great job. And of course, happy ending, so you won't be disappointed unless you shipped the other guy!

Great scenario,,beautiful scenery

I always love Japanese high school romance. Even the story involve around high school students. they are mature enough i think. The main leads think carefully before they make their decision, cos there are still things to consider. Another think that i love very much are by the way of how the girls and the boys turn down somebody feelings. Their act show of how they appreciate the feelings and it ethically impressive for me. Until the end the story is unpredictable, the last 10 minutes i still feel furious if the end of the story turns out the way i didn't want.

Rather boring and not very engaging

A naive country girl comes to the city, meets and becomes interested in several guys at the same time, basically leading them all on and of course drama ensues. I guess it's supposed to be cute but from a guy's perspective it comes across unsympathetic instead. It's also a pretty boring and superficial story overall. None of the characters are particularly interesting either. There are better such movies.
