This is a love story about two people who met when they were smoking in the smoking box.
Liked the interesting interview segments that were interspersed in the film! The lead actress was pretty charming despite saying swear words occasionally.

Stand By Me Doraemon 2
This movie is based on a Japanese manga Doraemon. Doraemon is a robot cat who has travelled from the future to be friends with Nobita to ensure he has found happiness before it can go back. In this sequel, he is intent on fulfilling his grandmother's wish.
The travelling back and forth in time reminded me a bit of "Back to the Future II"! The grandmother is my favorite character! She is not fazed by anything that she sees and hears and also gave excellent advice to Nobita at the end!

Over the Moon
The story is about a young girl flying to the moon to find Chang E after learning that her widowed dad intends to remarry.
Liked the nice friendly sibling relationship between the young girl and her future step brother! The moon setting looked quite futuristic!

Whisper of the Heart
The story is about a girl who is an aspiring writer falling in love with a boy who wants to be a violin maker.
This felt a bit like "Only Yesterday" with only the childhood segments. Both films also have English songs sung in Japanese! I liked the Shizuku character as she felt like a nice girl-next-door character who is trying to find her way in life!

Dangal
The story is about a father training her daughters to be world class wrestlers so that they can win medals for India.
Liked the nice songs and the father daughter relationship in the film! Didn't like the parts with the coach who was depicted as evil for no reason. The director also tried too hard to make the match exciting by making it an almost impossible task for Geeta to come from behind.

Mulan
The story is about a girl who went to the Army in ancient China to fight against foreign invaders by disguising herself as a man.
Liked the nice songs and the great problem solving skills of Mulan! I also liked the warm father daughter relationship!

A Dog's Journey
The story is about a loyal dog that remembers its purpose to protect its owner's granddaughter even after going through several deaths and rebirths as a different dog.
Liked the nice heartwarming plot! The two main characters were really likable too! The evil side characters were a little bit of a caricature though and the part where the granddaughter walked away normally after a car accident didn't quite make sense.
