I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

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.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

awful,everything is awful,everything except the name.I was expecting a complete different story line. Drawing style is disgusting so is the story. The main character is strongly under the influence of Japanese schoolgirl fetish. Apart from this the integration with 3d (robotic suit in this case) always ruined the general image which is really visible in this case. I do not recommend it to any anime lowers. awful,everything is awful,everything except the name.I was expecting a complete different story line. Drawing style is disgusting so is the story.

Fantastic short film, all made by one man on a mac. Voices Of A Distant Star is the story of a future intergalactic war, and young couples separated by minutes, months, and eventually years communicating via texts, in one of the most entertaining movies about long distance relationships I've ever seen (the first one with space fights anyway). The direction alternates between simple objects and images caught in daytime shadows, and grandiose sweeping shots of ultra violet skys and vast alien landscapes and space. Likewise the plot alternates between introspective voice overs about longing and the passage of time, wonder at the magnitude and beauty at the psychical world, and anime style space battles with giant mech soldiers, aliens who resemble T1000esque Crustaceans, and Space Vessels which look like swans. Emotionally and visually moving anime, about growing up and growing apart.

First of all, Japan should be producing this caliber of work more, rather than producing endless episodes of meaningless animes.In this film, the action, lighting, sun rays, backgrounds, stills, and cgi are done beautifully. I like them very much. The concept is also pretty unique. The photography and colors are pretty brilliant.But what makes it a pity is the hand-drawn characters. they are not professionally drawn and animated. Proportions are often off. Animation of the hand-drawn characters are not natural. It could have been a much more perfect film with much better feel and look if the characters are done right. What a pity. Generally, a pretty good animated short film.

I loved this little film. The aching distance and loneliness really tug at the heartstrings. It's really amazing how powerful a little 30 minute film can be. But what I REALLY fell in love with was the music. Especially "Through the Years and Far Away". It's so wistful and full of longing, but at the same time almost happy in a way. If anyone anywhere knows where I can get sheet music for this PLEASE post and let me know. It would mean a hell of a lot to me. Compsed by Tenmon, written by K. Juno, sing by Low. I've googled it to no end but it's so obscure I cant find anything. I want to be able to play it for my Boyfriend as a surprise to him. PLEASE HELP ME! I can almost figure out how to play it just from listening, but some of the chord progressions are fairly complex so sheet music would be great.
