I stumble and found a Gem!
14 April 2023
Lucky I found this movie on the Internet and it is very very beautiful and I'm thankful for it.

The plot carries a big role on this movie and it just not like your typical japanese movie with a sick female lead that dies on the end. Its not like that. The 3 main characters is well portrayed and given enough spotlight to show their roles and back stories in a sense that it didn't ruin the timeline of the story telling.

And the ending is super good. In a sense that it will make you cry. Literally cry. And a lot.

More over, in a sense you will predict the twist of the story and you will think that this movie is just another cliche japanese sick lead romantic story but as you watch the movie progress, the "Real Plot Twist" will hit you straight out of your face. And you will realize that you are wrong with your assumption. That you are wrong how the movie progress and you are seeing yourself shedding tears to the specific scenarios of the movie and at the end you will see yourself sobbing out of it.

As for the characters, they are very well portrayed by the actor and actresses. The female lead looks like most of the time (90%)"Momo of Twice" and (on some angle)"Mina of twice". I also like how the characters has only a few clothing to use for the movie. As it emulates the realistic way of how people dress up on multiple times when seeing with friends and acquitances.

I very like the color grading of the movie. As I'm video editor myself. The soft tone of it accentuate the dream-like portrayal of each encounters of Tooru and Mouri and feels like it enhances the experience of the movie carrying you along with the character reminisce the past memories that been created on the movie. Overall, I really recommend this movie if you wanted to eyes to ball out and if you wanted to check if you still having feelings.

PS: Have a LOT of tissue if you have decided to watch this movie. Trust me, you'll need.
