The Parades Movie Reviews

A beautiful movie

This film came out a few days and there isn’t a single review so I decided to write one because I want to recommend it.

I decided to watch it because of the music (radwimps is my favorite band). The first thirty minutes are like an introduction and from then on it gets better as we spend time with the characters from the group. The film is only two hours long but it made me feel for each of the characters, which was amazing. It is an emotional movie, sad and hopeful, made me cry at least five times. This was the most I have cried in any movie I think.

I wish this film would get more recognition, as for now there are not many votes on this platform. But it is very good. I liked the ending and the final song. Read the plot and if it interests you, give it a try.

An intriguing look at the life after.

This movie is excellent and gives an interesting perspective into the life after death genre. Heartfelt and well done in all respects. I loved the ending and think it is well worth the time. Michihito Fuji did a wonderful job writing and directing this feature. I look forward to seeing his other movies. The actors in this film did an awesome job. The music was just as fantastic. If you get the chance please watch. Get your popcorn and candy ready and if you’ve a tendency for tear jerkers you might need some tissues as well. Just sit back and enjoy. This movie is definitely a ten out of ten and would watch again.

Lacks Something

Good japanese thriller about the afterlife, that happens about the time of Fukushima disaster. The rhythm of the story is slow.

It follows a woman that is a soul without accomplishing her objective at Earth (it can be in or out life).

Good characters, sensitive movie – maybe not fit for everyone. It have a Ghibli characteristics to it, without the cute characters.

Good photography, but do not expect FX effects to compensate the natural / supernatural interactions.

But in the end it lacks something to enhance it more – maybe more emotion on the scenes to bring tears to the eyes. My score: 6,5 / 10,0 / B-.
