A beautiful journey. Poignant and resonant with wonderful twists. Somewhat cheesy in the sense that love overcomes destiny with such yearning. But that concept was done so well done that it felt so genuine and believable. A wonderfulA beautiful journey. Poignant and resonant with wonderful twists.

A wonderful soundtrack that perfectly bolsters the performances and story extremely well not to mention the outstanding animation. Simply wonderful in almost all aspects.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have wanted to watch this movie since I first heard of it nearly 4 years ago, and now that I have seen it, I can say it did not disappoint. I was excited for a heartfelt and sweet tale of body-swapping between Taki, a Tokyo boy, and Mitsuha, a countryside girl, even if the premise isn't overly unique. But the movie was so much more than that once you reach the halfway mark. The movie is absolutely beautiful in its animation, its music, and its settings, especially Itomori. The hometown of Mitsuha is focused on in the early stages, with the characters, culture, and scenery shown in all its glory, investing you in the life of the people and places there. Tessie's idea that he'll probably just stay in the town his whole life really stuck with me once the movie wrapped up. About halfway through the movie, it is revealed that the festival which Itomori are so excited for ends in disaster, as the comet breaks apart and crashes into the town, destroying the town and killing the people excited for their festival, and that this all occurred three years earlier that Taki's story. Seeing the beautiful scenery destroyed, and Mitsuha, Tessie, and Sayaka among the deceased made my heart sink. The movie invested me so well, and when the reveal happened, I legitimately dropped the biscuit I was eating like I was in a movie. That is not a joke! The image of Mitsuha excitedly ascending to the top of the hill with her friends and the meteors coming down is crushing. Taki's defeat afterwards is so sad, and you can see the bewilderment so well. Then, his journey to save Itomori and Mitsuha when he realises he is not just making it up is exhilarating. The beautiful sequence of him understanding Mitsuha's past is really amazing, and when he wakes up as Mitsuha, it's incredibly uplifting. The attempt at saving Itomori is both joyous and nerve-wracking, as the Itomori friends are back together and alive, but the mission seems impossible. Taki and Mitsuha's reunion is also heart-warming and heart-wrenching, as the twilight imagery is paid off and they finally meet. The shot of the falling pen is also so quick and hits you hard. I thought that was a brilliant choice, over a slow, dramatic drop of the pen. The shot of Itomori being obliterated by the comet is also impactful, I've never had a reaction like I did to that, with an emotional intake of breath. Finding that the people of Itomori were evacuated in time after Mitsuha's confrontation of her father was a relief that I was unsure if I would get. Seeing the characters living happy lives in the future was wonderful, and Taki's philosophy of making landscapes and architecture that stick in the memory was impactful, and has actually stuck with me since seeing the movie. You never know when things will disappear, and even if you don't love it, there's always someone who will. It made me think. And that final scene was beautiful, with great scenery and a joyous reunion. The movie isn't perfect (it's more 10 than 9 though) and if it were up to me I would change parts, but that is to be expected of any movie. The explorations of the bodies do leave me with some discomfort, Mitsuha's journal entries deleting themselves didn't seem to make the most sense to me, and I thought perhaps the characters would find some conclusion other than love, but all that is nitpicking to a degree and personal preference.

Overall, Your Name is a stunningly gorgeous movie in all senses. The story was surprisingly emotional, the animation is beautiful, and the music is great. Watching this film has definitely made me think, and I was pondering things outside of the movie for many days after. This movie is incredible, and is a new favourite for me!… Expand

It is interesting all the time because the movie is not boring. The story is fancy and modern. I like the plot that the boy from the city and the girl from the rural town are switching the bodies. I like how they show their culture in 2 sides (countryside & city). The story was written by Makoto Shinkai. This movie is one of his successful cause it gained a lot of money. The time for this movie is 107 minutes. It is look like the movie is long but actually it is not too long. All the time when I watching this movie, I really curious what will happen next. The illustrators and the animators of this movie are very skilled. The scene of the movie is very beautiful. The sky is very nice. Especially the scene that the comet is separating itself. The character in the movie too , They make very clear emotion of the characters. Some place is used from the real one such as Shinjuku, Shinano-machi station pedestrian bridge and Yotsuya Station. The movie soundtracks of this movie are really good too. That are sung by the Japanese rock band name Radwimps. I can listen the playlist of these songs for month! At last, I know that the characters in this movie, later appeared in Shinkai’s next film “Weathering with you”. I have to clear my time to see his movie! If you haven’t watched this movie yet, you should watch it once in your life!… Expand

Impressively displays just how spectacular an animated film could be when all mediums fall in place. The art, music, and story merge into a piece that is nothing less than amazing. The story itself is a little hard to follow. It is complex in nature and explores the laws of time. Time is a relevant theme throughout the entire film, but I would like to have seen it more sought after in the ending scenes. The characters' actions and dialogue are realistic. No part of the movie is rushed. All things just fall into place as they should be. Truly a masterpiece film.… Expand

There is a lot to love about Your Name. The stunning visuals, the great soundtrack, its fantastic ending, I could go on. The entire body-swapping concept of this movie makes for some humorous and overall fun moments. However, the conceptThere is a lot to love about Your Name. The stunning visuals, the great soundtrack, its fantastic ending, I could go on. The entire body-swapping concept of this movie makes for some humorous and overall fun moments. However, the concept itself is a little confusing and leaves for more questions. Here is where my main and only problem lies with Your Name, and that is the handful of minor plotholes that are sprinkled throughout the movie.

The main one that is prominent is the romantic development between the female main character, Mitsuha, and the main male character, Taki. A lot of the interactions they have failed to explain the sudden romantic significance that they begin to hold for each other. However, I think this can be glossed over and attributed to their mutual experiences with the whole body-switching fiasco. Either way, to build on this, hyper analyzing this movie will result in a loss of enjoyment. There are a fair number of plotholes, and for a person like me, I don't think that I can just pass over them and give such a high score. To be fair, a movie has only so much runtime, and so many concepts and other rough edges are unable to be fine-tuned in a movie that has to cover as much ground as Your Name.

Regardless, Your Name can be appreciated for what it is from an artistic sense: an absolute masterpiece. The production is some of the best you will ever see, and I truly stand by that statement. It ultimately boils down to what you prefer. If you want a movie that will move you, then watch Your Name. If you are the type to read into details way too often like I am, then Your Name should probably not be your first pick for a movie, but you should still give it a chance, if only for its fantastic artistic presentation.… Expand

It failed to evoke any deeper emotions and reflections. But Makoto Shinkai-in this story of love, despair, redemption, search, and identity-managed to evoke these.

The story is simply ravishing, and so is the graphic work. The verdant nature of Japanese countryside, the never-sleeping, always busy city of Tokyo. Enrapturing. Although I have heard some strong criticism of the music by RADWIMS, which is by some considered too teen, and inimical to the emotional substance of the story, I found it a perfect match. The sounds complemented more than well the despairs of the characters, and enhanced the visual beauty.

Importantly, this is not only the tale of two Japanese adolescents swapping their bodies. It is the story of Japanese culture and history, tale of the struggle of Japanese youth, and metaphor for the tragedy that hit Japan in 2011. Combining all of these is not an easy task and could easily result in the chaos, yet this movie succeeded in combining these heavy themes in such a gentle, harmonious, and tender way. It was deservedly awarded numerous prizes in Japan and internationally.… Expand
