Okay, first review. Here it goes.

Story:
Well, the movie's named appropriately, because the plot just crawls along. (I know others have pointed this out too.) Once you can actually figure out what's going on, it's predictable, too. I figured out the plot twist half an hour in and fast-forwarded through the rest because it was so boring. The overall idea was good; they just didn't execute it very well. All in all, story gets a 2/10.

Art:
I did like the art. Some scenes were absolutely beautiful. However, some of the character designs were definitely lacking. during the boring scenes where there was hardly any dialogue, I thought about how ridiculous the main character's hair was. And in my opinion, the shading seemed a little off, somehow. Overall, though, 8/10. the beautiful scenes distracted me from the little things that irked me.

Sound:
Really not much to say here. The sound was very unremarkable and could've been done much better. There were too many scenes with characters sitting around, with their usual snail-pace plot, made worse because the sound sucked/wasn't there. 3/10

Character:
Uuuuugh. What character? They all acted the exact same. No emotion, monotone voices. At certain points it was actually funny: (Spoilers!) The 2 main characters stop at a cabin or something after going to some sort of military base for some reason that wasn't explained. At the cabin thing, the girl whose name escapes me tells the main character that they have to go back to their base. Then she says, "or... We could stay the night..." and oh-so-subtly with the same blank expression, undoes the top button of her shirt. (End Spoiler!) Hardly any of them ever took off their 'bored' faces. 1/10.

Enjoyment:
Read all the parts of my review up to this one. 2/10.

Overall:
3/10. If you have an amazing attention span and you can listen to boring conversations about nothing without falling asleep, then watch it. For everyone else, avoid this movie. Possibly the worst anime movie I've ever seen.
