The story is about how a Japanese grocer went beyond his means to help a group of poor Chinese students in the late 1980s.
Liked the nice Chinese song and William Tell overture music sprinkled in the film! Was a bit puzzled why they didn't go physically to Beijing but realized the reason when I saw the date they were supposed to go.
This is a documentary about art lessons in Japan during the 1950s.
Liked the nice art drawings and clay sculptures by the children! It was interesting to see how the childrens' drawings reflected how they were feeling that day!
The story is about how a Korean taxi driver drove a German journalist from Seoul to Gwangju to cover the Gwangju uprising in 1980.
Quite surprised that this was based on real events as it seemed unbelievable that the duo would make it safely to Gwangju and back! Great acting by Song Kang Ho as the taxi driver! I have seen him in many other Korean films!
The story is about how four friends went on an adventure to find the dead body of a stranger.
Liked the strong friendship among them and how they stood by each other in the face of danger, whether is it a train chasing after them, leeches biting them or bigger boys threatening them!
The story is about how the people in the world had to make earth wander out of its usual orbit and travel for many years to another place to save it from destruction.
Liked the final part of the film where everyone was trying their best to save the world! Most of the places looked quite similar though, so I couldn't tell them apart.
The story is about a group of diners having an expensive dinner at an island but many unexpected things happened along the way.
Liked the twists and turns in the film! I couldn't predict what would come next! I thought the bread dish was the most ridiculous!
The story is about how a young girl travelled to New York with her cousin to abort her baby.
Liked the friendship between the cousins and the scene that explained what the title was all about!
The story is about how a shy little girl made friends with another little girl called Marnie.
Liked the friendship between the two girls! The final portion where they slowly revealed the identity of Marnie was pretty exciting in my opinion!
The story is about how a smart little girl survived studying in a school with a very fierce principal.
Liked the nice songs that blended well with the plot! Thought it was pretty interesting how fiction mixed with reality!
The story is about how Nobita tried to send his pet dinosaur back to the time where he belonged.
Liked how hard the dinosaur trained to learn how to fly! An exciting adventure!
The story is about how a dinosaur raised by lemurs trekked to a sanctuary after a meteorite shower destroyed his home.
Liked the realistic action sequences! Not really sure why the rest of the dinosaurs had to listen to the head dinosaur who just wanted to charge ahead.
The story is about a group of outcasts staying together as a family. Some of them shoplift to survive.
Liked the interrogation scene towards the end where we slowly figured out the relationship among the "family members"! I think they act more like a family than real families do!
The story is based on a Japanese manga series called Umimachi Diary. It describes how a young girl came to live with her three older step sisters after her father passed away.
Liked the nice idyllic life at the countryside near the beach! My favorite part would be when the big sister and the little sister climbed up a hill and took turns to shout something towards the sea. I was surprised by what the little sister shouted but it made sense in retrospect.
The story is about what happened when a little boy was accidentally left at home around Christmas while his family went on a holiday to Paris.
Liked the part where Kevin went to church and realized that his old neighbour was much friendlier than he thought! The rest of the plot was a little bit too unbelievable in my opinion. It will be an advanced challenge for a ten year old kid in an "Old Enough" episode.
The story is about how a panda called Po helped to save the world from a supernatural villian together with his village of pandas and his kungfu buddies.
Liked the lesson that Po gave on drawing on each person's strengths! I could see how well they all worked together in the group battle scene!
The story is about Winnie the Pooh and his friends helping to find Eeyore's tail.
Liked how the director incorporated pages of the book into the film! Very innovative! The message at the end is very uplifting too!
The story is about the adventures of a wooden puppet called Pinocchio.
Liked this film much better than the live action feature directed by Robert Zemeckis! Very well adapted to explain Gepetto's relationship with his son before he made Pinocchio and Pinocchio's friendship with his good friend Candlewick. The animation is amazing too!
The story is about a seargent in the French Legionnaire looking back at his military life overseas.
Liked the interesting exercises that the soldiers did, they looked like a blend of yoga and ballet poses! Not really sure what the sergeant was unhappy about though.
The story is about the sister of Sherlock Holmes called Enola Holmes solving a case of a missing person.
Liked the exciting chase sequences and how observant Enola was in noticing the clues! Not quite convinced about the romance bit though as it seemed too abrupt.
The story is about a young girl who turns into a red panda when she feels emotional.
Liked the nice family story! Didn't really like the parts relating to the boy band though.
