This was a movie that started off like a normal and basic Japanese movie, but it then turned itself around and created this sort of atmosphere that just pulled you in. It got better and better as I watched it. The acting was good, but the story and script is what really made me love this film. The words they spoke were beautiful and had underlinings of so much emotion and depth, it's easy to tell that the writers are really wise and intelligent people. The chemistry between the leads doesn't jump out at you or anything, but there is obviously some deep feelings between the two. I could feel their emotions well, more so during the last half of the movie. The cinematography was also amazing, it showed the city and parts of nature in gorgeous angles. I recommend this movie for anyone that likes a deeper story line that extremely original and breathtaking.
