Opening Day: 6 March 2008

Finished watching the movie around 3:44am this morning.
And I was soaked in tears.
Right now my eyes are swollen,bulging eyebags and my head hurts a bit.

I came across the movie while I was watching episodes of Witch Yoo Hee, a korean drama, and at the end of one ep a video flashed called Sky Of Love and the cover got m attention because of the white haired guy in it. I thought at first that it was a live action since the guy has anime styled as in anime style hairdo.But then  after some researches when I got to finish the movie in awful lot of tears,it turns out that IT'S A BLOCKBUSTER MOVIE IN JAPAN!! realeased March 6 of this year.

My tears started flowing I think about half-way through till the end of the movie that's why I soon i I ran out of tears, as in tuyong iyak mga dude.

I was blabbing about this to Kej (who I talked with till 5:40am,the sun is rising at this time) while watching it. I can't help it, he is the only one I'm talking to. (Sorry Kej.. )

Memorable scenes:

• When they took a shot of the smoke trail in the sky to serve as proof when they meet since they got to know each other through fone.(sosyal to tawas hindi txt! haha..)
• When Hiro looked for Mika when she was raped and how he still accepted her.
• Everytime Hiro protects Mika. And still loves her despite everything.
  
• When Hiro broke up with Mika and did not clear the reasons.(I wanna bash his head at that time.)
• Mika found out about Hiro's sickness.
• Hiro confessed that he does not want to die and he cried.
• When Hiro was about to die.(ETO UNG MALUPIT!!!)

-at first I thought Hiro never really loved Mika, but gaaaaaaaaahh! Hes one big fucking idiotic sweetest guy!!!! U'l fall for him!

Watch him at Gokusen 3! His hair is uber cool there! wahahaha..

Published Review

Synopsis:

The cell-phone novel that moved 11 million to tears

Uploaded to a cell-phone website, this tale of an average girl’s three stormy years of high school, a saga of love, rape, pregnancy, miscarriage, parting, and reunion, is in fact a true story. Striking a chord with many women, its popularity spread like wildfire by word of mouth, and published in book form was an instant best-seller, with 1.3 million copies snapped up in only three weeks. The work is a true phenomenon of the emerging cell-phone society.

Movie Review:

This is one of those Japanese movies belonging to the high-school-boy-meets-girl-with-terminal-illness-or-vice-versa-and-one-of-them-dies genre. Predecessors include Love Letter from a long time back, Crying Out Love in the Center of the World and Nada Sou Sou of recent memory. Make no mistake: the Japanese audience knows who dies after the first scene, but each of the aforementioned movie top-grossed in the country. Now that's really top-gross.

The selling points for each movie is basically the same. Find the most popular, most photogenic and most crybaby almost-teen starlets; put them in the movie, and watch one of them die while the other cries. Prettily. For the boys out there, the deck is stacked heavily against us. In about 80% of movies from this genre, the high-school dude dies. That's quite sad, for the high school girls are all wide-eyed cute little things that boys won't mind spending more time with.

That said, if you have the tenacity to endure the cheesy lovey-dovey lines and you like a clean colourful bright sunshine palate for cinematography, these Japanese flicks are cute date fodder. Each movie has a unique selling point, and Sky of Love promises a whole boatload of unique selling points. Rape, miscarriage and a white-haired dragonboy. This also happens to be a cellphone novel and a true story.

Acting-wise, the teens tried their best to emote, but there simply wasn't enough script for them to act upon, and the director fell into the very bad habit of fleshing-out characters like two-dimensional manga inhabitants.

The female lead was raped with 3 men watching and recording the ordeal, but she recovered in two full minutes of screen time to continue making moon-eyes at dragonboy. Skinny dragonboy beat up four punks easily. They had sex in the school library! Nobody reads books in Japan apparently; they read cell-phone novels. The movie was based on a true story, but it was completely unbelievable.

There are better characterizations in manga.
