Pretty Depressing...
If you ever find yourself thinking it is a good idea to try to run fast enough so that despair won't catch up you may just want so slow down or you may, just may find yourself running off a cliff...So you may want to slow down and watch a Tokyo Sunrise... or any sunrise for that matter, you could also get one of those paraglide Glider thingies used in CLOY so you can fly once you reach that cliff... but that is way beside the point. This is a slow paced depressing movie, as to be expected of a movie about a guy who is driving in to the night to find the first love of hid dead best friend... In a journey to try to move on or maybe understand why the best friend who chose to write a note and a picture instead of using a paraglide thingy when he jumped off a cliff.
So this is sad, the music is sad, the people are sad (in a lot of ways), even the lighting is sad...there is not much dialog but the little dialog there is, is pretty powerful, interesting, self aware and witty at times. The characters are real human being dealing with real human being stuff. Though there is a slight message about moving on and living on it did not take away from the over all depressing theme to this movie. So this is a movie to watch when you just need some depression in your life... be it finding people as depressed as you are, or if you are just too cheerful and need to tone it down a bit this is a great place to find it. Though there are some entertaining elements to this movie, I would say it is more of a movie you watch for its depth and sadness and not for pure entertainment.
