Sky of Love (2007)

So I'm not even going to sit here and pretend I am fine. I finished the actual show and lost my ever loving mind. Me being the idiot I am was like "let's rip this off like a bandaid!" so I broke down and watched this... and my mind went into autopilot. Y'all, I think I dissociated through the first cut of the movie. I'm sorry. Lol

If I'm completely serious, I didn't like it as much as I did the show. I felt like they left out a LOT of information that was offered in the show. Now, mind you, I haven't read the manga -- and probably won't. I don't do well with movies/shows like this. It was like this with The Fault In Our Stars and A Walk To Remember. I sobbed myself into depression for so long. Especially since cancer is a touchy subject for me.
Did I hate the show? Not at all. I just with they explained things a bit more. Like her love for the sky seems a little off in the movie even though in the show they kinda tell you why, and she's always looking at the sky, meanwhile in the movie, it's kinda a passing topic.
Also in the show, it shows him being the one to lose his phone, which makes sense because a lot of information comes out over the teddy bear charm on his phone that just makes it make sense. The movie kinda has it set up where it's like he saw her once and stalked her. Lol
So there were a lot of differences and I get it, movies need to do that to save time.. but... I mean come on, these were pretty important.

I thought I was gonna be a bad bitch and not cry at the end because I knew what to expect. My guys....... I sobbed like a cry baby again. Like, all the air just left my lungs. I swear I'm not going to be the same after this story.


Can we talk about the ending? (this could be a possible spoiler; sorry! this is your warning)
We see her holding 2 pairs of gloves at the end, one being a child size, which as we know every 24th, they leave BABY sized things at the grave. Yet at the very end, it was just her 3 family members, and I feel like those that haven't seen the show won't realize she's a mother? Like I don't understand why you would drop that hint in the smallest form possible. That actually kinda made me mad because PERSONALLY I feel like the whole ending that would lift your spirit is to see her and Hiro's daughter run up to her saying "mommy" while dressed in all the relevant things that connected Mika and Hiro.
While I have not read the manga, I heard from those that have say yes, she did in fact have his baby.

Honestly I wish there was more I could say about this movie but I feel like I poured most of my guts and feelings into the show review I left. So if you want the full review of me falling apart, I recommend checking out my review there. Lol

I felt something therefore I scored it highly.... Probably too highly...

This is the story of the very innocent girl who got lured in to the miss understood bad boys bed and well after that life went all bananas. The acting is kind of off, the story predictable and packed with a bunch of cliches but honestly this movie is from 2007 so it actually came before all those other movies and dramas I have seen with similar plot lines so I really should not complain and I am pretty sure that MEME (thai writer) has seen this movie a long side a bunch of K-drama writers and of course a few J-drama writers too...

The first half of this movie was a bit like a rocket launch fast paced and had me thinking over and over again well that escalated quickly.... Just for the rocket to run out of fuel about 30,000 km up and fall in super speed right to the ground... Still pretty faset paced but all goes to ****. So basically In a short period of time we experience a lot of more or less interesting situations. Do they handle any of them remotely well? Probably not? But at least something happens...

And even if I did not fall in love with the characters acting skills there was something that got to me... If you are the type easily prone to tears you may cry in this. For me it was just light fog at the corner of my eye. But I can definitely se people crying while. watching this.

So if you are looking for the beloved guilty pleasure of bad boy takes good girl and turns her bad, or just looking for a bunch of fluff... You may just wanna look somewhere else but if you can handle a bit of everything and want to see soemthing pre smart phones this is definitely a decent place to find it.

A story of Exquisite Agony !

I watched 'From Me to You' days ago, and instantly fell in love with the acting (and smile) of the guy who played Kazahaya San. It broke my heart, finding the sad truth about demise of Miura Haruma, and worst of all, the feeling that i can not anticipate upcoming works of this brilliant artist.

I watched sky of love only for Haruma. I didn't even bother reading the synopsis which became one of the reasons , why my soul was pierced by this beautifully painful story.
I've been feeling sad since past one day, hence writing this review as a therapeutic outlet.

It's a beautiful tale of first love. Hiro and Mika, two highschoolers fall in love. Mika is a cheerful young girl,while hiro is a rough tough blondie. Their joyful beginnings are overshadowed by the harsh realities of life. The heartbreak of losing a child early in their relationship sets the stage for an emotionally charged journey. But the story takes a turn with Hiro's sudden indifferent attitude. At this point, I couldn't stop myself from fast forwarding near the end, only to find a bedridden Hiro. Even such a crucial spoiler couldn't save me from shedding tears when the moment of revelation came.

All I can say about the acting is , they made me cry.

I am a sentimental person. I get teary eyed every single time I'm watching an emotional story/scene, but tears rolling down my cheek is something on another level. The river side talks between Hiro and Mika (after their reunion) , Hiro crying, pleading he didn't want to die. It was so damn emotional. And the last 15 -20 minutes were just ....🤌🏻

If you have a liking for impactful stories,
and don't mind bawling your eyes out,
If your heart can take the load, then go ahead,
Watch this beautiful story.
You Will Not Regret.

(PS: Please keep a box of tissues)

Miss you Miura !!

So I'd just finished watching this movie, even though it took me 9 years to get here.

This movie was and is beautiful. I was prepared for a 2 hour long movie but i wasn't prepared for that 2 hour long movie. I think that i mostly was captivated by it because there were definite things that I picked up in the movie. I liked the actors and the acting, i love how it was based off true events that did happen, mostly i loved the message of this movie. I t makes me think of my first love then it makes me think of the guy that i dated after him who was as sweet as Hiro.

It's going to be different for everybody but one of the things that made me cry, besides certain parts, was that everything he's ever done was for her, and you'll have to watch it to understand what i mean. And it'll break your heart because the love is so beautiful and to just to love wholeheartedly. At first "A Werewolf Boy" made me cry my eyes out but this touched a little closer to home.

I don't normally stress recommendation to people about certain shows but this movie is something you want to introduce your guardians to, your siblings, your teacher, anybody really. I know i am. Cause it's tragedy and it will only make you feel pain and happiness (if you have a lover make them watch it too).
To me it deserves a 10/10 because not many movies make me cry and those that do must really know how to tear at your hearts. Your going to ugly cry people, but you'll always want to have your own copy of this movie whenever you need a really good cry.

Most 2007 teenager sad love story

Back the day, I became the fans of Haruma Miura because my bestie almost dragged me to watch Haruma Miura's drama. I have watched it in 2012.
Story? This is typical teenager love story with soft and calm cinematography. The story is simple actually. The FL fell in love to the ML. The FL is favorable clever smart student and daughter, meanwhile the ML is strange, considered rebel student and Son. FL fall in love first to the ML but the ML is very cool and little mean to her.
Finally they dated and FL is pregnant with their baby. But something happened. ENOUGH FOR THE SPOILER.
The story is happy and sad.
I shed my tears watching this movie. I have rewatched until 3 times.
The acting of Haruma Miura is unquestionable. He is the shine stars since the early of career. For Aragaki Yui, she is very suit to be Mika. She is very soft, pretty, and simple. Her sorrowful acting undoubtfull make me sad too.
The cinematography of Koizora film is the best, with cloudy mood but I can feel healing watching the movie.

I watched the drama 3 times a few years ago and for some reason I'm so biased towards the story itself. At first I wanted to watch the drama again but I was afraid that I would spoil my memories of it so I finally decided to watch the film adaptation.

The story is so sad that I cried a lot even though it was hard for me to empathize with the characters because of the very poor acting. The film is missing some things that for me were a bit of an essential part of the drama. Like the reason why Hiro dyed his hair dark. Maybe it's not that important, but it's the part that has stuck in my memory for all these years.

Despite all my fondness for this story, I'm really disappointed with the execution. I managed to enjoy this movie only because of the good memories of the drama and the will to watch something that will definitely make me cry.

Sky of Love is one of those stories that made me cry the most.

This has to be one of my favorite movies now.
It was simply beautiful.
The acting was amazing, the story was great, and had very nice music.
Overall, it was an amazing movie. I especially loved Miura Haruma's acting. It was as if he truly felt what his character was supposed to feel and portrayed his role beautifully.
What I didn't like about the movie? There isn't anything major in all honesty [yes, I loved it that much]. But I felt like some things were just cliché? It was cute, but-- yeah.
Overall an amazing movie and I really recommend you all watch if you haven't!

This film is wonderful. I'm delighted in the story. The beginning is calm and shy. It was very suspicious, but I didn't suppose that fate. I'm glad that the action is concetrated on Mika, who was abandoned. It's very fresh, because they often show suffering of patient.

What is more... the movie is typical school story and I like watching simple life so much too. Aww... and these beautiful uniforms...! How the Japanese look so good wearing it... Hmm.. and these love. The beautiful, clear love.

As to acting... they were ok. I was laughing and crying when the characters. I'm sure I will rewatch it someday.

Just another Filler

Honestly, I watched this as a study break.

I liked how the story progressed, it all made sense but it was exactly as the title stated just another filler. The storyline was typical boy meets girl but breaks girls heart ... girl finds a new guy but then finds out why the first guy broke her heart in the first place. We've all seen it before!

The acting was pretty good, it did the job essentially.
OTS--- ehhhh could have been better.

But honestly, I appreciate the honesty of this film and how it addressed why she was heartbroken, I also love the character development. I think I am so indifferent about the film because it was pretty sad - not just the ending either.

This drama has a pretty complex story line. By that I mean A LOT happens to the main leads over the course of the movie. Had I known that it didn't have a typical happy ending when I started watching it, I doubt I would have finished it. However, that being said, I'm glad I did finish it. It's sad, but true to life in many ways.

There are a couple things in the show that I took a bit of issue with. For example, it takes MUCH longer for a person to get over being raped (and you never really do) than this movie portrays, and I also didn't like the idea of the girl having sex literally at the same time she had her first kiss. I mean...REALLY? Stuff like that annoys me and (at least to me) makes sex seem much less of a big deal than it actually is...especially for a teenager. Other than those things though, the story line follows a pretty normal arc.

If you cry easily, then get the tissues ready for this one.
