Woops. Didn't realize we had a separate thread for the movie. Re-posting my impressions:
I really enjoyed the last few episodes of the tv series for its cheese factor.
So, I had some expectations for the movie.
I guess what was said earlier about the crew that did the tv series and the movie being completely different was true.
On the plus side:
* Gorgeous. I generally hate Clamp-style art, but somehow this crew managed to do it without it looking completely stupid. It looked fantastic.
* The glasses never came back. Thank gawd. She looks far better without them.
On the down side:
* Boring. Completely lacking the cheese factor entertainment of the last few episodes from the tv series. It was a slow moving drama, which I just didn't find all that interesting.
* I'm trying to decide if I just don't get what in the world Fumito was actually trying to accomplish, or if I do, and am rejecting it because it was just so stupid (not in the good, cheesy, lol last two episodes of the tv series way, but in the why did I just waste 1 hour and 47 minutes of my life-oh wait, it was very pretty-way).
