My favorite japanese movie. Though I haven't seen many. But you can't help but to fall in love with the music or the characters. I've seen the anime az well az this movie. And sure I compeared it to eachother... but even so it was really good. I cried. I laughed. And I was sucked in az if I myself was there... And just to think that Mika Nakashima. The singer. Had only been in one movie before this one. And before that she guest stared in "Matthew's Best Hit TV" as herself. But even so, with little acting experience. She did an excellent job. And her singing in this matter, is wonderful. But it has always been so... to you who likes jpop and jrock. I urge you to check her out. Mika Nakashima has a great vocie, in my opinion. It's all good.

Exremely moving. The story just catches you and graps on... and then wont let go until you've seen every part of it. Tony Jaa or Panom Worawit that is in fact his birth name. Does a wonderfull job in this movie. You just can't help but to like him. And if it's not for his acting then it's for his martial arts. The moves he does in the movie are outstanding... There's this scene. I think it's about 15-20 min or so... where the camera angle doesn't change! It's the longest take I've ever seen in one angle. Coz normally a movie have more then one camera shorting and during some parts they change the angle so that the viewers will see better. But in that scene, in this movie.. the cameraman follows and moves along so that the angle changes but it's the same person filming. It's so great that you don't really see it the first time. You HAVE to see this movie. JUST HAVE too. :)
