Eiga Time! Lovely Complex Live Action

Risa Koizumi is a girl who is taller than most girls her age and was dumped in the past because she was too tall while Atsushi Otani is a boy who is shorter than most people his age and was dumped in the past because he was short.  Because of this reason Atsushi and Risa are sensitive about their height.  They are made fun of by their classmates because of their perfect timing with each other and their similarities after getting into an argument with each other Risa says she can get a boyfriend in a week.  After this her friend tries to set her up with two weird guys and their friend, their friend turns out to be Atsushi who saves Risa from having to deal with the two guys after this they find out they have something amazing in common and become best friends.  After some time Risa realizes she actually like Atsushi and confesses but Atsushi doesn't respond and she takes it as a rejection.  They remain friends but they relationship becomes awkward and distant.   What happens to their friendship if they can't communicate, what happens to Risa's love that wasn't responded to? These are question that are answered after watching the movie.

This movie which is based of a manga and also has a anime series is just like the name lovely.  A very but seriously very long time ago I read the manga and was actually happy to know there was a movie based of it.  The manga is cute and funny and not the usual overbearing love story to read so it was great.  Now there are many things going on in the movie that differ from the manga, some characters change and the storyline has also changed a bit, but it still keeps its sweetness and light comedy that was seen in the manga.  There are other love affairs going on in the movie besides the two main characters that are just as funny if not funnier than the two with the height complex so there much to pay attention to.  It's one of my favorite movies because I can laugh but feel happy while watching it even when the bad moments are going on.  A must watch for those that are not in love but wish to be in love and for those in love who want to watch and keep being in love.   But definitely is a movie to be watched.
