"Wish" is a Disney's 100 years celebrating work. This story about the girl named Asha who lives in the kingdom of Rosas. Asha is a bright person, and she loves her country. She introduces her country to people come from another place, and she try to become King Magnifico's apprentice. Disney's film always appears villain character. In this movie there is also villain character, and this character is very attractive. In addition, I like the character of Asha. She is a brave. I also like Asha's friends. Their characters also good and they fight with Asha. In addition, Valentino a goat, and Star is very cute. Like this, this movie has many attractive characters.

"RENT" is a musical movie. It sets on late 1980s New York and is written about young people. They toward many problems such as drags, poverty and so on in their life, and at the same time they try to their dreams come true as artists. This is a musical movie, so there are many songs in this movie. All songs are good, and "Seasons of Love" is one of my favorite songs. In addition, The opening start with this song is my favorite scene. I also like Angel's character because Angel is strong and beautiful and she has an important role of this story. I haven't watched this musical on broad way or some stage, so this is the first time to watch the story of "RENT", but I like this story. I want to watch "RENT" on the broad way. It is very touching story, and I think it gives hope and courage to many people.

A Girl's Act
9 January 2024
Otousan no Tabako is a story of a girl who lives with mother and sick father, and the father's condition is bad. One day, the girl goes home with her friends. Their talk seems very normal, and she looks like a normal girl, but she buys cigarettes after she says goodbye to her friends. I like this introduction, because I feel the scene of the girl with her friends complements the unusual act of her buying cigarettes, and bring us to many questions like why this girl who could be from anywhere buys cigarettes? I think this introduction hooks us and audiences concentrate on this movie. In addition, I think audiences may be taken with the girl. She knows cigarettes are bad, but she tries to get cigarettes somehow. Her admirable figure makes us empathize with her. The acting of the girl is very good. This movie is good and heartfelt, so I recommend it.

Lifted (2006)
8/10
Cute Characters
9 January 2024
'Lifted' is a comedy from Pixar about an alien who takes his exam of taking away people. The alien wants to pass the exam, but he makes many mistakes, and he becomes panicked. The man who may be taken away at the alien's exam is swayed by the alien, but audience probably won't be able to criticize the alien because the alien works hard, and he is very lovable. In contrast, the alien's boss is less expressive, cool and he can work. However, he also has an aspect of kindness, I like his character and most people also like him. In this movie there are many unique points not only about aliens but also the man. Through the movie, the man has almost no reaction. People don't appear and if they do, they don't speak, so it is exciting to see the alien's world. This short is very cute and great. I recommend this movie to people who wants to heal their heart.

Interesting Story Order
9 January 2024
"Two Strangers Who Meet Five Times" is a short film about two men, Alistair and Sammy, who meet five times in their lives. Alistar is a white man, and Sammy is an immigrant. This is important for this film. This film is not told in chronological order, so it starts with the second time, and we can know their first time meeting after the story progresses. I feel it makes us get to know these two guys more deeply because in this scene, we can see the development of their personalities, especially Alistar's, so I like this film's structure of the story. Through this film, what impressed me most was that when the other person did something to someone, they remembered that person, and conversely, the person who did something to them did not remember, such as in the third time Sammy remembers Alistair, but Alistair doesn't, and for the fourth time Alistar remembers Sammy, but Sammy doesn't. I think this film is important to think about racism, so I recommend watching it.

Love at First Sight (I) (2010)
9/10
Romantic
9 January 2024
"Love at First Sight" is a short film about the romance of an old man. The old man, named Arthur, lives in a nursing house, and he falls in love with an old woman, named Ruth, at first sight. They talk a lot and spend time together all day long. I like this film's atmosphere which takes time slowly and Arthur and Ruth look so happy. In addition, I like this movie's deployment. As the story progresses, we can learn about their past like Arthur's career and so on. In particular, the scene that Ruth sees her album tells us the truth behind their romance. Moreover, I like the last scene because I think the impressions of people have changed. Some people think this is a happy love story, other people think this is a sad love story. However, I think we can enjoy watching this movie, and exchanging ideas about this is also interesting, so I recommend this film.

The Crush (I) (2010)
9/10
Very Attractive Story
9 January 2024
"The Crush" is a short film about a boy who has a crush on his teacher. He gives the ring to his teacher, and he thinks he can marry her. However, on the weekend, he meets his teacher, and she walks with her fiancé. The boy is shocked, and he tries to win against the teacher's fiancé. Through this film, I like the boy's action, which is very attractive. In particular, I like the first scene because the boy's facial expression makes us realize he falls in love with his teacher without words. The boy's act may draw you in as the story progresses. In addition, you will also be excited to see what happens next, because you will have many questions in the story, and it is well developed. This is a short film, but I feel very satisfied when I finish watching it. I recommend this film to people who want to be thrilled.

Gasman (1997)
7/10
A Life Changing Point
9 January 2024
"Gasman" is a short film which is about a girl's life changing point. One day, the girl goes out with her father and her brother, and she meets a little girl who looks very similar to her. I like this film's introduction. In the house, the girl polishes her shoes and puts her cute dress on. Her mother cares about the girl, and the boy plays with his toy car. We can't understand why she polishes her shoes and wears a dress, so we can guess the destination. And it makes us very excited. The last scene is also one that I like. We can consider her feeling and her thoughts from now on as we like. This film is not bright, but I think this film has something attractive. When you finish watching this film, you may bask in the afterglow of this film. I don't like thisk ind of dark film usually, but this movie is interesting. So, if you like dark films, you should watch it, and even if you don't like dark films, you should try to watch it.

Interesting Story
9 January 2024
'Fish Out of Water' is a comedy about a man who avoids rush hour by his unique way of travelling. He rows a boat every morning, and commutes. One day he goes to the office with a woman who wants to avoid rush hour, and she brings others from the next day. This story is very funny. The boat is a good hook. I think almost all people have an image that people use car, train, bus and so on for their commute, so when the man appears with his boat, many people may be surprised, or feel blind-sided. In addition, not only main character's characteristic but also characteristics of people who get in man's boat are good. They are very pushy and set the main character's misery off. This short is good comedy. The story is clear, but has the surprising point, and the main character solves his problem in a unique way. Many people can enjoy this short, and almost all people may laugh at this.

Knick Knack (1989)
8/10
Good Pixar short
11 October 2023
'Knick Knack' is a comedy about a snowman who wants to get out of his snow globe. He falls in love with the woman outside the snow globe, and he tries many kinds of ways to get out. The story is gripping and fun. The main character's characteristic is very attractive, and he is cute, so his many challenges make you want to support him. He also heals your heart. This short is funny, so there is a humor, such as the rising scale of his challenge, getting bigger and bigger. For example, he uses a hammer, dynamite and so on. In addition, the use of background music makes the movie atmospheric. It also helps that we do not care that there is no dialogue. This short is great and develops in an easy to understand manner. The world of toys is Pixar's unique view of the world, and many people, from adults to children, like such stories, so everyone can enjoy watching.
