Stunning animation, unique narrative, lovable characters. This movie will make you cry

With its stellar writing, acting, comedy, and themes, this movie is certainly a classic for a reason. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys entertaining character interactions and an emotionally rich plot

It seems to me that the bad pacing is what ruined this story. For a narrative that seems like it could’ve been an emotional journey, the quick introduction of new information with little time to process them mixed in with slower paced scenes altogether made it impossible to get invested in the plot. I watched the most beautifully done scenes in this move with stunning animation and heartbreaking imagery that could, on it’s own, make you cry, but I just was completely unable to get invested and felt absolutely nothing. The music was also really disappointing compared to the first movie. Despite being an emotionally shallow movie, it did have some of the most incredible animation I’ve scene, so that’s a redeeming factor of the movie.

This movie was tense, bittersweet, and a story that was easy to get lost in as you pieced it together. The non-linear style presented it in a super interesting way that made the movie unique and I think worked very well. Overall, I super enjoyed this movie and thought it was very well done. Would totally recommend to anyone looking for a bittersweet drama

This movie is a masterpiece. Even though not a word is spoken in this movie, it’s so easy to get emotionally attached to all the characters in a beautifully animated world in all the ups and downs. The plot may be simple, but it was super entertaining to watch. This may be one of my favorite movies ever
