There's much more details in the animation... From the Navi American Troops actually bombing Japan, to the brother bringing his little sister to the doctor... In the original, the little girl gets sick, and you can feel the struggle. Here, she dies from not wanting to eat, which just isn't as impactful.

I can say that the acting is okay, and the story is fine i liked the film it was alright, but it's no where near as good as the original Grave of the Fireflies, that truly made me cry for 10+ Minutes. This didn't because we just didn't have as much development, and it's too similar to the original animated one.

I can recommend you sure go watch this one, but first watch the original, the original is a masterpiece that will break anyone's heart. I'm not saying that this movie is bad, it's just not as impactful as the original. The original hits you like a truck.

I am not saying that this movie won't make you sad or cry, but if you already seen the original, you kinda how what's coming and you are sort of ready for it to hit smack you in the chest.

After having seen the 2005 NTV version "Grave of the Fireflies", this one was somewhat of a disappointment.

The storyline had been altered greatly and the beginning and ending had been trimmed and thus losing the poignancy of the movie. The use of modern upbeat songs is inappropriate for the tentative and moving moments. The storyline was less developed and the acting was far from convincing and even wooden at times. I can't understand why they made this version so soon after the NTV version.

If you want to watch this title (I wholly recommend you do), see the 2005 version and the original anime. Both are extremely poignant and deeply moving testaments to those who suffered under similar circumstances.

I cannot figure out for the life of me why just 3yrs since the last live action remake of the 1988 they remade the classic again.

Grave Of The Fireflies is such good literature I firmly believe it should be taught in schools, its a work of art and it's anime was a masterpiece. Ontop of that the 2005 live action was a roaring success and an outstanding piece of cinema despite being a straight to television movie.

This much not needed remake is a compacted version of the tale that had trimmed the beginning and changed the ending altogether.

It all looks so very rushed, incompetently made, amateurish performances (Which is unforgivable for something like this) and the changes outright killed it.

I'm a huge fan of Grave Of The Fireflies but make no mistake this isn't it.

Watch the 1988 anime or the 2005 live action and forget about this pathetic excuse for storytelling.

The Good:

It's Grave Of The Fireflies.....kinda

The Bad:

Compacted story

Much of the story has been changed altogether

They changed the ending!

Poor performances

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Mass graves can be respectful to, right?
