An Inspiring and warm movie, 25 February 2008
9/10
Author: Mr Hottentott from Sweden

A fantastic movie about piano playing and friendship.

Don't get it wrong thinking you won't like it because your not interested in pianos cause i ain't and i still loved it. Mainly its about 2 boys one rich from the the capital Tokyo and one poor from what we could call the city slums of a smaller town, they become very good friends and find out that they both love the same thing "to play the piano" and they're both trying really hard to become better before a big competition which selects the best pianist in all of Japan

Can't really explain it but there is something in this movie that you don't see much in movies these days something different, slightly mystic fantasy about it may be a way to put it. And then we have the Friendship and warmth which the movie is based on and if you put it together well See it and you'll know what i mean.

Regards Your Hottentott
