Good start, but then it gets ruined

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

I have just finished watching this anime movie and it's pretty good though it is not the best anime I have seen.The plot however was midcore to be honest because it was all for a bunny rabbit. I am not going to spoil any more of the movie since the movie was that long that I could barely remember how it began.However the fight scene was good and the graphic and the animation definitely was made with love and care .Considering this is a children's movie just be weary that the word "pervert" would be used. But as good to the movie there are some good lessons and morals to be learned from this movie. What really was stupid was that in the English dub they used the word Dollars as money instead of Yens. I am pretty kids aren't stupid to the point that they wouldn't know what are Yens, Pounds, Dollars, Euros and Rupees and which countries they would work in. When I watched the trailer I wasn't too sure but when i actually watched the movie i enjoyed it plus some of the characters are actually stronger then they look. For example Natsuki Koyama look pretty week and scrawny but in a fight between her and a TZ-33 looking droid she could hold her own and actually push against his force. Overall: good movie though there are some stupid scenes.

The most imaginative anime film I have ever seen. I just saw this "wonder" tonight at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. This film had an interesting and slow beginning which left you wondering what this movie was about. There was a strange conflict at the start between some fantasy creatures which was short and quick, and then opened into an extended bucolic Japanese family scene in the countryside centered on the life of a few school kids. Then surprise, the kids are transported into space on a galactic adventure which literally boggles the imagination and leaves you glued to your seat. But, the movie goes on too long. About 35 to 40 minutes too long. The film makers should not have "tacked on" the Star Wars type mini adventure at the end. It was overkill, it was not needed, really. But, like I said, it is the most imaginative anime I have ever seen. And I just know there was a ton of animators and art students in tonight's audience. I can't describe this movie, you just have to see it.

Overload of imagination. It is very sad that it has been 4 years since it was launched. The amount of details put on every single scene with the endless imagination and possibilities have taken me back to the young children days. Adults will be surprised by how much effort have been put into making this. Surely one of the most underrated in IMDb that i have seen so far.Sound tracks, animation, voice actors are 10/10. Story and plot 8/10.I would love a sequel of this and recommend it to those who love imaginative animation, the best imagination and creativity so far. Unique, fabulous and original.

Group of school kids camping out for a week find a wounded dog and rescue it. It turns out that the dog is actually an alien studying earth plants. As a reward he takes the kids to the far side of the moon and beyond. Its complicated plot involving the title space TV show, poachers looking for Wasabi, a lost world and several other tid bits.Amazing feast for the eye has a plot that moves very slowly making it a long haul. It doesn't help that the film has sense of back story that often makes you wish it was even longer. I liked the ideas but found it a tough go. Watching the film at The New York International Cildrens Film Festival this afternoon I was struck by how restless the kids were.I've been going to the festival since it started and this was the most restless audience I've run across. Yes I and they liked it but it seemed like it took forever to get to the rousing climax.Worth a look but I's wait for DVD.
