    (short review for the meantime)

    While other time-travel movies fail at some points because of contradiction that arises with the idea of time travel, this japanese movie actually DEALS with it.

    This maybe the best time traveling movie I've seen, theory-wise. The story itself is...( read more) simple and laid back, so it's never complicated or frustrating.

    eita and juri is love as always. <3

    A very funny and smart film about time travel. I was a little confused at the beginning, but that's how the movie is supposed to be until you see them start their time traveling. Great acting. Great story. Also, if you're a fan of Eita and Ueno Juri, then this is a must see cute ...( read more)film for you!

    Fantastic time travel film - one of the best I've seen. This is based on a play and it is very well thought out. It doesn't fall into the conundrums and traps that other time travel films seem to find themselves in. It's funny and silly, but also deep and intelligent. Great balan...( read more)ce and fully entertaining. It may require a second viewing even for the brainy and observant.
