What is there not to like about this movie, absolutely outstanding score and animation, among some of the best Shinkai works I've ever seen. It might be my favorite anime movie ever (and thats saying quite a bit). Honestly I can see how some people can be bored during this movie, but every part of it is so bitter-sweat and heartfelt, it captures the feeling of growing up just flawlessly. As time goes on I relate more and more heavily with this movie, until it's gotten to the point where I almost tear up thinking about the ending. All of the "what could've been's" in life, every missed opportunity fate throws at one, it's all captured in this movie, and I'd honestly recommend it to anyone. An easy 10/10 in my book.
