    Innocent and Beautiful

    Hmmm... how to explain this movie.??! Do you remember when you were young and starting to think about romance and love? You knew nothing about it but it seemed like the most wonderful , beautiful thing in the world. You would daydream about who you would meet and when you did, your world would explode.

    Then you fell in love for the first time and it was even better than imagined. You lived for one look, word, kiss. Everyday was filled with wonder and your heart refused to stay in your chest....

    That's this movie. It will leave an indelible image in your heart. Don't miss it, watch it at least twice, or.

    Amazing and Beautiful

    Excellent movie and good emotions brought out... and a storyline and solid film plot that will keep the audience absorbed and remember.. The film is centered along a few characters, which is good as there aren't too many distractions.. In a movie that doesn't has too many 'other' details of surroundings put in place, eg historical background, over-featuring the politics and external characters/story plot, there's always a danger of lag of materials making the movie boring.. However, the director manage to streamline the film, with good arrangement, right music, and good acting, into something that can really touch people's hearts.. It's been a long time since good movies like that are released.. This film is too underrated..
