( this review will have some very obvious spoiler and so beware . ) a friend bring this over and and we make it through 45 minute of the movie before we decide that fast forward 8x speed be the only way that this film should be watch . there be point when we be watch the movie at normal speed where i would leave and prepare part of lunch and and return and to find that literally nothing have happen . 2 line of meaningless dialogue be exchange . nothing happen the background and no important facial gesture be make and nothing but mind numbing awkward silence . this be not how to make a thoughtful film and especially when the movie plot follow all the same basic hollywood movie trope . if i tell you that disney be make a film about 4 girl start a band and and the singer be a french exchange student and what you would expect to be the conflict that arise . the lead singer have to overcome stage fright . someone have an unspoken crush . the band be late for their performance and and a side character have to buy them time . spoiler alertall of those thing happen in this movie . at no point in this film do you have even the slight fraction of concern that these girl would not be able to accomplish their goal . this end the section of spoilersi like japanese film . i have spend a lot of time in japan . i work for a japanese company . heck and i even know all the band reference in the record collection and md that theyre go through and and i have sing along to the title track with friend at karaoke . this be probably the bad film from japan i have ever see . do not be confuse . though the character will have point in the movie where they do typical japanese high school thing and this be not a typical day in the life of movie . this be a day in the life of 4 extremely random and heavily conflict and awkward japanese student . there be noticeable problem with the dvd and as well . viz decide that a great extra would be a producer read aloud the wikipedia entry about the blue heart . what a value . in addition and they care so little about the subtitling that the band name in the subtitle and paran maum be different than it be in the chapter selection menu and paran marum . in the final auditorium scene and there be a very visible reflection or ghost effect on everything and but this seem to be the fault of the original film . negative and do not view if you do not absolutely love awkward silence .
