I went into this drama really wanting to like it. I have seen several of the actors in different shows and had hopes that they would make a great combination.
I found the story hard to follow and it seemed to have loose ends. The side characters were very underutilized and we were not given enough screen time to learn to care about them. The Ost was disappointing to me. Same two or three songs over and again.
It was hard to get through and I dont think Ill be watching it again. First show I have ever watched where i had the playback speed up to 1.5 most of the way through.
I dont normally review but Im in a bit of a passion so I will. If you watched the anime and liked it, like I did, then be forwarned that this movie IS NOT LIKE THE ANIME!
I saw a trailer for this movie on youtube and thought it looked good. I had seen the anime show and was excited to see it in live action. I was severely dissapointed.
First difference: they made the movie a musical. In my opinion it doesnt work for it. Second difference: they messed up the characters. The names and base likes of the characters seem to be the same but they are not the same people as the ones developed in the anime. Third difference: they added, took away, and mutilated scenes. Some scenes from the anime made it into the movie and these were the ones I liked. Others......I dont know what the writers were thinking, or where the scenes came from.
I havent read the manga yet, though it is on my to do list, so I am basing my dislike for this movie on its inaccuracies with the anime.

Still worried about there being a good ending for the main couple.
