Les Murs vagabonds

This show could have been good if they didnt rely on unruly children being annoying and bickering the whole time to create drama and obstacles.

The art is great, the theme is unique. But the characters are just completely unbearable.

The children all looking back at their life remembering their best memories when they are like 12 years old is super annoying, they make them reminisce like they have lived these long traumatic lives full of woes and hardships. These are kids, not 50 year olds meeting up for a class reunion.

Kid being a jerk to everyone just to be a jerk. Other kid being a jerk just because hes selfish. Other kid being a jerk because the other kids being selfish.

The only likeable characters are the ones that seem more like side characters just there to fill the empty space.

This movie is a must watch it's pure gold! You can sit down and watch this masterpiece with the kids and family

A very emotional movie with a hint of action, adventure, fantasy and slice of life. Very comedic in the first part of the movie, adventurous and packed with action in the second act. The final act full with emotional surprises and amazing sound scores. Every each one of the characters have their own significant role and unique to each other. Amazing voice casting and big fan of the animation style. Possibly the best foreign animated movie of the year 2022 so far. Perfect ending and original song. Amazing movie and highly recommended.

A lovely visual treat with an inventive story idea.

I love that this was a contemplative movie with serious culture shots fired through it. From vintage snack treats, to the feeling of growing up and the old buildings and places you frequent then lose but the memories remain. The intro credits sequence of the buildings getting built as their lives continue across the process was very well done. Strong japanese city details from the views to the sounds. Very authentic and detailed.

It is a long movie and the last 1/4 where they're jumping into the ocean to save each other got repetitive and didn't really yield the payoff for the action it delivered.

The destination wasn't as deep or perfect as it could have been but I think we knew that was going to happen by the half way mark. This movie posed thoughts rather than delivered answers and it was as much about the journey as it was the destination.

It's great to have another movie with no baddies (antagonist) or violence in it that can still hold your attention and activate your mind. Western cinema has stagnated on that concept and can't seem to think it's way out of that cul de sac. It is to Japan's credit that they can.

This was another beautiful movie. I would say though that the whole thing with the complex being at sea made no sense. But does it really have to. The more I watched though I interpreted the film in a way of childhood innocence slipping away from these kids as the one thing they have always known may not be with them anymore. It was a very nice film and I enjoyed the character development we got with each of them, there were some intense scenes that were a little scared and at one point I thought it was all the head of the main character. Overall though yet another lovely anime. Its showing that netflix is getting better and better at making them.

Very complex plot not intended for kids. At the surface the plot might seems a supernatural teenage story. But for old school Japanese anime lovers they would appreciate and understand the story which discusses childhood trauma and its effect (isolation, anger, emotional numbness and failed relationships).

The plot was extraordinary, using the water and storms as metaphor for emotions and feelings and stressing on the importance of close relationships.

I don't understand the low rating of the movie, I think most of people didn't get it. It reminds me so much of studio ghibli movies, entertaining but with an important message.

A movie that provoks emotions and leave you with a feeling of loss and relief at the same time.
