Out of all the movies/animes Satoshi Kon has worked on, this is by far my least favorite one. It isn't a masterpiece like his other works of art.

First I thought I didn't get it, then I realized there's really not much to get. The characters just wern't interresting and so the whole movie was just a big bore. The animation was beautiful, but not strong enough to hold my interrest trough out the whole movie.

It's beautifully animated and quite original, but the extremely non-linear narrative and convoluted blending of the actress' life with her roles just left me confused. I get what they were going for, but I spent so much time trying to wrap my head around the plot and figure out what was going on, I couldn't enjoy the film as much.

With excellent animation, brilliant compositing and imaginative method of merging truth and fiction was the perfect spice to complement the restrained, longing story. When Satoshi Kon is in form, he's unbeatable.

I really did want to like this movie but it's just too confusing. I had no clue whatwas going on about half the time and when I determined a hypothesis to explain what was going on, I was disapointed wtih what the movie was about, but I don't even know if it was about that. Definitely stay away if you don't like confusing movies.

A great concept, but the execution leaves much to be desired. The comic relief guys are really annoying, with all those exaggerated reactions so typical to anime. The animation is stiff and the acting is poor. And to be blunt, most of it is kinda boring. The whole time I was thinking how much better it would be in live action.

Pretty forgettable flick. I mean it's not painful--hence, the Yellow. But, it's not great. Anime, I think should stick to dragonballs and gambling shows. Less serious stuff. Too serious or too whatever (hugefuckingeyeshit) doesn't work too well.

Certainly ambitious however it flounders in those final 20 minutes and there are bits which don't completely work - the final line, a few battle scenes in quick succession early on, some of the more modern music. It is very charming though and Chiyoko as a character is almost always dealt with care by the writer never played as the silly romantic fool she could so easily have been shown as but instead shown as another lost soul, just like the rest of us, looking for something just out of reach.
