This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

"Oseam" just like "Grave of the Fireflies" it's a heart-breaking animated story involving two orphan kids: However, unlike "Grave of the Fireflies", at first this movie seems to be quite light-hearted and childish in comparison, combining some dramatic scenes with moments of comedy and silliness.But as the story advances, several elements of tragedy start to appear in the movie, until a incredibly sad (But at the same time, beautiful and fulfilling)ending.One of the most incredible aspects of "Oseam" is that, despite the fact the story deals with many intense emotions, the movies manages to deliver all those feelings in a subtle way, and that's the main reason why even the most melodramatic aspects of the plot worked so well, being pretty effective at the moment to present the viewers the tragedy of the to main characters."Oseam" is a tender, but at the same time sad and heartbreaking movie. Even if the animation isn't so polished as any production from the Studio Ghibli, certainly the story has the same emotional impact that animated masterpieces such as "The Grave of the Fireflies" (Tough in my opinion, "Oseam" is a bit less bleak) have.

I find that it is a good animation movie. This a comedy and drama animation. The music was very good, and the drawings are well drawn, especially when they are made with the hand. It is a film which makes reflect on the good to be company. The whole, it does not have there a scene of violence like the majority of the American and Japanese animation. The main character is a trouble maker but he has a good heart.People will cry after seeing this animation. I recommend to all to look at, even to the children, although it is sad and too heavy for them, because it is an example to be followed for all, children and adults.

I just finished watching this. I have to admit, in terms of tone and emotions, this is definitely the heaviest animation that I have seen. In this sense, Oseam bears some similarities with Grave of the Fireflies. This is not to say, however, that the movie is sad through and through.There is no point in revealing any of the plot - suffice to say, the journey is ultimately fulfilling. In terms of animation quality, it is second to none. It is especially impressive considering that it was hand-drawn. Last but not least, this is not your average Disney flick - teens may be able to appreciate the story, but younger kid most likely cannot handle it.

This animation is great. About everything is right. But be aware not to watch this movie with children! Despite that it is an animation, it is a sad movie and will be too much for most children.Despite this, I recommend this movie to everyone who is able to get their hands on this!
