| Saw it in theaters again tonight. I always forget just how much I love this movie!! |
 |
| Finally watching Satoshi Kon's films! I loved this one. It just made me so happy :) The animation is also incredible! |
| Just watched this with my mom. It was a good choice to leave it for Christmas. We liked it. |
| Damn, this movie is timeless, abundant with so many funny, humorous but still poignant, subtle presences of the nature of faith, and the Christmas spirit. So heartwarming yet still bittersweet. My only suggestion is the consequence would feel more complete if they showed more interaction between Miyuki and her parents aftermath, but I respect the intention of the director. |

| Dull, directionless movie with artificial, performative "character" driven entirely by exaggerated expressions from a cast full of muppets. The histories of the characters were either half-baked or entirely unexplained as well, because this movie was demonstrably preoccupied with having them sharing quirky, snide jabs between them for most of the duration of it. There was an obvious attempt at some sort of messaging regarding homelessness here, but it was obfuscated by the incoherent lunacy of the characters, whose flippant convictions regarding the events that unfold means there's little incentive for the viewer to care about both the characters and the philosophy of the movie. The homeless guy, transvestite and school girl protagonists all seemed to loathe each other to a ridiculous extreme, having nary a nice word to say between them; yet arbitrarily drop this disdain whenever the plot demands some "tension", typically whenever any one of these characters is in a dangerous situation. Of course, their reasons for being so invested in the circumstances that lead them to these aforementioned dangerous situations are as contrived as everything else. |
