really good movie but it didn't quite hit the mark for me.
if you saw that movie with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler you more or less know what we are talking about.
a guy asks a girl out, set girl Is unable to form new memory and he tries hard to make her happy every single day.
spoiler alert
unlike the Adam Sandler one we don't get a cheesy happy ending.
the first complaint is that the reason why they start dating is idiotic. in order to save a friend (a friend we won't see any more) a guy ask a girl out without really feeling it just to please some bullies. I don't know what this is all about but it sounds really dumb.
from the very get go we know he is gonna die. the film spoils it for you when the FL while cleaning her room finds out an old note book.
some people don't mind to learn these kind of info beforehand but to me it kinda ruined it all a bit.
their love story is really sweet but in the movie we don't find much out about any of the characters except for the ml family background which is there for plot reasons like bonding with Izumi over literature interest or "correct" Maori s notebook.
It also took me some minutes to get accostumed to the couple cause I saw them in a different dramas where the ml was the FL gay best friend.🤣
that aside they have good chemistry.
even though I knew he was about to die somehow, his disappearence wasn't build up
in a good way. it was to sudden. we never see him suffer or struggling.
the best and emotional part is definitely the second part of the movie when they start "erasing" the ml for all the notebooks. that was really emotional to be honest.
as I said we don't get a cheesy happy ending but somehow taoru Kun manages to keep living in Maori s "muscle" memory and notes.
definitely an enjoyable movie. sad.. but not devasting cause they missed the climax I guess.
maybe it's just me.
