Movie Reviews of Voices of a Distant Star

Movie Review: beautifully sad
Summary: 5 Stars

if you are capable of caring about other humans and you believe people who care for each other should not be separated, you will be saddened by this movie but i suspect and hope that you will love it as much as i do.

Movie Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars

I didn't know what this was going to be about at first I thought it was going to be something silly for 30 minutes so I decided to watch. I never cried so much over a damn Anime, I loved it I thought the story was amazing. I would say it's worth it.

Movie Review: Sometimes, good things come in short packages.
Summary: 4 Stars

Much as already been written about this piece in the reviews so I will just give my take/recommendations. I very much enjoyed Voices of a Distant Star. I will say that yeah, it was a bit short but I am glad I own it. I also enjoy collecting anime for its art style. Those who may not want to commit to the price of owning may still want to consider buying it used or renting it as I feel it is a worthwhile watch.

I will say that while the story is in the scifi genre, it's not the point of the piece. The story of this piece, it's focus is the relationship between the two leads. Everything else is background. Don't expect to learn about the war, how the mecha work, or anything like that. It's all about these two characters and THEIR relationship. That's it.

The music is great (so much so I bought the soudtrack). Well, it's great if you enjoy piano.

I will leave you with one final note. I found the dubbing fine but I make a point to watch the subtitle selection just to see if there is any changes to the translations. It is in the subtitled bits that the newspapers are translated and there is important information in the headlines. Hit that pause button and read. I guess I have one more suggestion too, watch it a few times to catch the details in the scenes that go unspoken. Hey, the movie is short so you can do this easily, haHA. The composition of the scenes and what is in them are so important to the story and provide much subtext to what ISN'T said by the characters.

Movie Review: I love this movie.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great film. It's short but it's made by a single artist. The mood is sad but hopeful. There are pleanty of other reviews to consult so I'll finish there.

Movie Review: Not Worth any reward ... how did this got a reward
Summary: 1 Stars

when i look for anime or animation then i'm looking for " ANIMATION " this one don't have any .. i think its animated by Flash or some other program .. i feel cheated by the " three award winner stuff " , i'm a huge fan of great " ANIMATIONS " , i like to see the drawings move . i saw better 3D graphics on PS1 , don't get fooled by the cover it makes you feel that you found a treasure .. but its fools-gold .
it is really bad ... the only good thing here is the coloring and the background art but the same is used too often , i don't write reviews that much but i hated this anime that i even didn't care to complete half of it and went to my laptop to write this review , a really really honest advice DON'T BUY IT , DON'T RENT IT and DON'T STEEL IT , its not worth it . YUK how did i buy it ..
