Title (Year): Time Traveller: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2010) Age: 14 yearsGRS Rating: 5 of 5
Infractions: None. Comments: A young woman, Akari, has just passed her entrance exams for pharmaceutical college. Then, her mother is struck by a car. She wakes up from the resulting coma to instruct Akari to travel back to 1972. Akari, of course, asks her how to do that. Her mother, a chemist, has a liquid in her work desk that allows travel through time! This cute romantic film is about time travel. Like any good time-travel film, the plot is somewhat complex. There are parts that reminds me of CQ. I liked the cool shot of our future! There is a small error: cars didn't have third brake lights in 1974, even in Japan. This wonderful Japanese film is based on a novel. |
