Tada, kimi o aishiteru

Heavenly Forest is by far the sweetest love movie I have seen in a long time. I'm a movie buff especially in this genre.

Every moment has it's nostalgic feeling into it, the transition from one phase to the other blends well and never did lose it's hype.

Although, the movie doesn't draw tension as much as compared with other Romance movies but it is meant to be in that way so it portrays meaningful happiness instead of sob tearjerker that drives the audience downhill.

Although this movie has strong influence on Japanese cultures (dialects, humbleness etc.) but that's what keeps it at it's sweet and delicate momentum.

There is nothing lacking in this movie, as it is sweet in every sensible way it displays.

This is the kind of movie that Hollywood could never provide.

Modestly Warm and Delicatively Meaningful.

Big warning : this is a sad movie. But does it worth it? Definitely yes. The story is sweet, though the ending could have been better. Even though its sad, it could have been presented better. The performances were really good though, from all the actors and actresses. Aslo, the main couple had chemistry and they were cute, especially the girl, all quirky and adorable. The cinematographty, moreover, was splendid, especially, when they were in the forest, with all the colours and the lighting.

When I watched the movie, it was raining outside. And I tried to feel the movie from the deepest part of me during this romantic season. I extremely liked the acting, story and of course the beautiful scenery of Japan. The college life story was also very charming and both the actress were looking gorgeous and gave their best. The lead actor was also done a great job and the story was full of love and charm. Love and sacrifice were the main themes of the movie and it was presented quite beautifully in it. this is a must watch film for every one especially those who wanna know the true meaning of love. I watched it more than 10 times and I suggest everyone to watch this with a calm mind if you want to enjoy a decent romantic saga...

I was ashamed how the ending played out. Or I just felt that something was missing through the ending of the film. Nevertheless... I really loved the characters of this film. I really enjoyed Aoi Miyazaki's character of Shizuru Satonaka and loved her childish, innocent-like perspective in a teenager. You don't see much of this personality in young dramas. It really made me reflect back in my teenage years. I guess my thing is, I just wanted to see more of 'Shizuru Satonaka' haha she brought humor, sadness and happiness altogether! Loved her character. Overall, the film has made it to my top dramas to watch. Loved it.

I was a bit surprised by the sometimes frank and honest dialog coming from Aoi Miyazaki's character in what for the most part is a very family friendly bit of Japanese young love/first love cinema. But it is appropriate for her character, a set-to-mature-at-any-moment young woman deficient in some necessary growth hormones needed to push her over the edge (that when triggered by a first kiss could ultimately be her ... undoing) and seems trapped in young adolescence. It's a very cute and cute-funny, and really sad, sad, film. Miyazaki teeters the edge between coy and seductive so well it made me dizzy ... with delight. I could, however, understand her pouty lipped attempts at cuteness turning some folks off. She does slip out of it each time very quickly, though. That's part of her charm, I guess.

The film is beautifully photographed. The 'heavenly' forest is fairy-tale gorgeous, as are the three young actors we spend time with. The story is engaging too, clearly a novel-adapted one.
