Mixed Feelings
If I were to make a review based on the art, I'd say IT IS VISUALLY BEAUTIFUL, 10/10! However, art isn't the only category that makes a movie great or a flop. What pulled this movie down was the story/plot.

Story (3):
One world to describe the story: Confusing! The story was just all around the place. A new plot was brought up even though the previous one has been left unsolved. The first half was fine since it was still introducing the characters & the plot was still developing (exposition), and the tension and issues were building up(rising action). However, when the second half started, it's just hard to follow or keep up. The climax, falling action and resolution was like "WTF is happening" or "huh, what just happened"?

Art (10):
As aforementioned, this movie displays beautiful imagery that is relaxing and pleasing to the eyes. The colors were vivid, the scenes or background creative and breathtaking. The art in this movie is what allures us, viewers, to watch this film.

Sound (9):
Like the art, the soundtrack was relaxing and soothing to the ears.

Characters (5):
Characters were a tad dull and lacks development. Only a couple of the main characters showed progression. I felt that the remaining characters remained "almost" the same as the beginning of the film. The minor characters on the other hand, are not even worth mentioning. The plot didn't resolve any of the issues of the minor characters, basically, leaving them idle and unsettled.

Enjoyment (6):
I really enjoyed the art and soundtrack. In terms of storyline, I only enjoyed the romance and the comedy that was depicted. Aside from that, I wasn't please by the confusion the plot brought - the fact that there were a numerous loopholes and unsolved issues.

With this, my overall would be a 6. The art/sound really compensated for everything else it lacked to be a great film. I was immensely disappointed in this film. Keep your expectations rather low and you'll probably enjoy the film.
