the leading man is my tpye

Some things I liked some I did not.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Blistering performances.

Where should I begin?Great story that entertains and engages you. Fun circumstances and a world of wonder that is so different from my day-to-day, but is real enough that allows me to dream and imagine myself in this situation.The girls. The girls. Apparently in Japan it is not a crime to be pretty and sexy and dress well. I suppose they don't have obese women who will hate on them.Hollywood, I hope this film does not become popular as a result of streaming websites. Then you will try to remake it with an agenda of ugliness, grossness and the women will be pathetically anti-beauty.

I am giving this film 'My Rainy Days' nine out of ten, due to the abrupt change in the middle that makes two films out of the two hours, but otherwise there is so much beauty, elegance, cuteness, sexiness in this film that is unbelievable.The girls, whether in schoolgirl uniform or fashionable model clothes, are phenomenal. Miho and her tall stature is a knock-out. The rest of the girls are sexy and desirable. Main girl Rio, however, is the star of the show. She has hair, face, body and a fashion sense that would make 99% of other women jealous mad. Her acting chops are quite impressive as well. Guess what I will be doing next? Yup, her products and work shall be found and ordered pronto. Apparently her name is Nozomi Sasaki and with legs like that... wow.The film ends with a little bit of heartbreak, but all seems well nonetheless so do not worry.

Is it just me, or does this feel like a weird ripoff of La Belle Personne? A beautiful girl comes to a new school, but due to her tragic background fails to form meaningful relationships. The girl is cold and somewhat unpleasant to be around. Despite this frigid behavior, she becomes involved with at least one of the many boys who admire her, but she is unable to completely reciprocate the feelings. Then, a teacher comes along. For some reason, they can love and make a movie out of it, but they cannot stay together.Fin.(Rei and Junie even have the same haircut!)

This is not one of the best Japanese films I have ever seen and the story is very flat but i managed to watch the film until the end. the story for me lacks depth and not because I follow it in the native Japanese language with English sub-titles. Viewed simplistically, it is an enjoyable teen drama about a young girl who seems to get bullied and then protected and then sucked it to behave like the other girls and the girls are trendy and have a seedy purpose in going with men (we presume) in order to get money but the film is no way seedy and there are no scenes of a sexual nature at all throughout the film. In that sense, the film is tastefully produced and compelled my viewing. It might have been perceived as a comedy but that failed my cultural understanding. I have scored the film lowly but if I were a teenager and female and Japanese, the film would surely have a lot of appeal.
