Dec 25 2009 08:14 AM So I never watched it when it got subbed or anything but just thought that I had to see it.
So ordered it on amazon last week and received it only 2 days ago. Me and my little sister just watched this Christmas morning and it was a very well done movie and I think I had some seriously high expectations from it and I think the movie missed some of those notes for me.
I really did enjoy the movie but at the same time I did want something else.
I can't put my finger on it but thats the case for me.
The ending was a bit comforting but it was a bittersweet ending nonetheless but it seems like Makoto will probably never meet Chiaki because it seems like he's too far into the future which is a sad thought. However, their parting was done in a way to give HOPE to viewers.
I have it on DVD, so I might re-watch the movie in the future but for now I'll be putting it away on my shelf.
I'm going to give this movie a 8.5/10..........I was going to give this a 9 but I guess something made it loose 1/2 a mark I guess.
