Taiyo no Uta (Movie)

"Tomorrow never knows. It's a happy line."

Movie

Taiyo no Uta (A Song to the Sun) is one of those movies about the most often pairing of love and an incurable disease. But what's more interesting in that this is one of those movies whose OST is strongly tied-up with its entirety (for example Nana, The Love of Siam). Besides, Kaora Amane is a (hopeful) singer.

As music is central to the plot, expect lots of music inserts, which is actually not so bad. For the lack of really energetic atmosphere in the movie, these mini-concerts are its high-points.

This is recommendable, but not so highly because like most movies of this genre (teen romance), it's slightly predictable. I guess age also adds a big factor to its enjoyment; I'm 23 already. But still, it is remarkable to note that I'm hooked to the OST beyond salvation.

YUI is just so adorable, who is also the reason why I watched this movie in the first place. Her music is awesome.



Verdict: Good if you have time to spare; won't completely waste your time.
