Death Tube, as you predict, is similar to Saw movies and the like. This one is not so horrible-looking though. It does contains bloody scenes but other US films is much much more brutal.



The story is what I like in this movie. It is common, people gets drag into a game which requires them to kill other players. What impressed me is the idea of YouTube. What disappointed me is their movie effects. The blood used are obviously a fake, no much effort.



The acting did not make a good impression at all. All of the casts are not popular. They did their best but really, I'm not impressed.



Music is fine. Most of the scenes does not have sound because it will only ruin the mood.



Rewatch value is 7. I will watch this again some time, and will likely make my friend watch this too.



Overall, I give the movie a fair score.

Ever since I heard about this movie, I've always wanted to watch this. When I saw the trailer, everything looked awesome. Some trailers make movies look good and after you watch the movie, you get disappointed, but THIS movie didn't disappoint me at all! It is so awesome! It's youthful, funny, crazy, sweet, innocent, cute, happy, a little sad, unique, full of love, and just plain awesome. The story is super nice, sweet, and funny.



Junpei Mizobata was perfect for the Yoh Komiyama role, and Ito Ono did a wonderful job as Haruna Nagashima. The two of them looked super cute together. ^^ The cast was great! Everything was just great, even the songs. I'm already familiar with the manga for a long time, but I've only read 2-3 chapters of it and THIS movie makes me want to read it more. I recommend everyone to watch this awesome movie. It will surely lighten up your day. The movie would probably make you want to have a handsome love coach. Haha~

I wish I could complain about this movie. Ok wait, i don't. This movie was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!



Story: 10/10 The story is one that will motivate you while tears stream down your eyes. It has themes of "High School" romance mixed in with following your dreams to the very end.



Cast/Acting 10/10 I couldn't ask for a better cast. They truly did a flawless job.



Music: 10/10 I still listen to the theme song by Yui (who also acted in this movie) two weeks after I watched the movie. The only "downside" about this movie is that you get addicted to the wonderful music by Yui.



Rewatch Value: 9/10 This is such a beautiful movie that I would definitely rewatch.



Overall 10/10 (i'd give it a 15/10 if I could!). Definitely watch this movie. You won't regret it.

I came into this movie as a fan of Takeshi Kaneshiro and this movie reaffirmed the fact that he stars in some pretty awesome movies.



Story: 10/10 To explain why I love this movie so much would require me to post some spoilers. But this movie truly has some of the greatest plot twists i've seen.



Acting/Cast: 10/10 The entire cast did a terrific job. I really couldn't ask for a better cast. Ken Watanabe also had an unexpectedly intriguing role.



Music: 8/10 The Music was rather average. It served it's function well but it didn't stand out enough for me to go download the OST later.



Rewatch Value: 5/10 Since one of the greatest things about this movie is its plot twists, I would choose NOT to rewatch this movie as I already remember everything that happened.



Overall: 10/10 This movie was absolutely brilliant and i'd recommend everyone to go watch it now.

First of all, I watched this movie when I was feeling a bit under the weather and it definitely picked me up.



Story: 8/10 The story is nothing extraordinary. You know what will happen from the very beginning but Jackie Chan and the rest of the crew urge you to go on.



Cast: 10/10 The cast did a GREAT job. Everyone from the cute baby to Jackie Chan were absolutely amazing. The only "downside" to the movie was the landlords wife and you'll know why if you watch the movie(like you should :D )



Music: 7/10 The music wasn't anything remarkable. It didn't stand out and in fact, i've forgotten what it sounded like already.



Rewatch Value: 7/10 I actually don't like rewatching movies in general, but this is one I could rewatch with friends since you don't watch it for the plot twists (as there are almost none)



Overall: 9/10 This movie was able to pick up my mood and cheer up when nothing else would. The cast did an absolutely flawless job as well. I got what I came for.

So this movie was great but there were some things I didn't like...

What I did like was the acting. The actors made all thier characters feel believable and realistic. Another thing I liked was the comedy aspect. They didn't try to hard and added natural comedic scenes here and there.

What I didn't like was the story itself. It went back and forth between both guys and by the end I was like just pick someone already! But who I wanted her to end up with she didn't so kind of bummed... really though the ending is not really that believable to me. Did she really make the right decision for herself? Maybe a realistic decision but I don't think in her heart she did because really how can you get over a guy that quickly??Another thing I didn't like was all the time changes. You'll see what I mean but it was confusing because they dont tell you its been a certain amount of years till way after. So it gets a little confusing.

Well this movie was okay but the story could have been a little more stable.

I actually didn't know what an Otaku was so I thought from the picture, the movie was going to be about her being a maid for some reason?

Yeah well it was totally different from what I thought! It's a little naughty but really funny story about a girl who is obsessed with boy love manga, games, tv, movies etc and the normal boy who loves her and is willing to accept her as she is. The story does get a little dramatic towards the end though. The ending is nice and sweet. The leads were cute together. I really like that thier characters were so different but somehow they found love. Overall How to Date an Otaku Girl is a cute and funny watch.

"People don't get boyfriends by being hit on in town" intones Junpei with a deadpan face. I burst out laughing, and said "so true!"



For being Oto's debut (haha the title fits and everything) she did a pretty bang up job of the lead. There was loads of bright colours, and it really cheers you up! I wish I was bold (or naive) to go into my local town and stand there in bright colours waiting to be hit on. Like the girl experienced though, it would only be the pervs and pigeons interested :P



But still...she met Junpei! With her shoe flying of in a rather dramatic moment, and him picking it up all gentlemen like. He agrees to be her coach in love, but gives the ominous warning "Don't fall in love with me."



And like all good cliches...that's exactly what she... In risk of giving away the entire move if I keep talking, watching it will give you a cheesy grin and make you feel happy for no apparent reason than you watched it.



Brilliant J-movie!

My review is unbiased because I haven't read the manga or seen an anime...

High School Debut is so funny I literally laughed the entire time. It does have its "drama" moments but it didn't take a way from the fun of the movie. The ending was predictable but cute nonetheless. I really liked the use of color in the movie. Everything was colorful and bright and just made me feel cheerful while watching.

Loved the entire cast! The female lead might be a new actress but she did a good job of bringing her character to life, very believable. Of course there's Junpei who I adore; liked that he played a coldish character this time. My favorite character is actually the sister. Shes so Kawaii! I really liked her hair and clothes=D The rest of the cast was a great addition.

The music was fun and very fitting. It definitely added to the movie's atmosphere.

I can see myself watching this twice in the same year.

Although this might sound like a silly movie, its so entertaining and provides a nice message. Watch it!
