Hello World

First half was really nice, but second half could have been better. Anyways, I loved it. Quite underappreciated to be honest.

As a Sci-Fi lover, Hello World was an unexpectedly great experience for me. As it goes for most recent anime films, the visuals are fantastic and spice up the experience the film delivers. Although, as few as they are, the characters are not deep and certainly needed more development. The way the plot is explained is also not very clear and may leave the audience baffled. These two points are probably why it is rated as it is, since probably most people didn't really understand what was going on.

But Sci-Fi-wise, the story is quite brilliant. At first it starts like a run-of-the-mill high school romance drama, but soon enough it changes with the appearance of the future Katagaki. And as the film gets into the second half, with some quick hints here and there we realize the story is more complex than what we thought it was. Saying anything further, borders on spoiling the story, so if you like Sci-Fi stories, give this one a try and enjoy.

A really stunning movie with a great concept. I'm surprised that there are only 3 reviews as of now. This movie deserves more attention. This is a Sci-fi movie intertwined with a love story . I've seen people complain about the ending but that's the part I liked the most. It lets the viewers formulate their own theories and conclusion. This movie enables you to think. The visuals were good too.

Nice science fiction story with a cute romance and an amazing twist leading to a somewhat tragic conclusion. 10/10.

Unfortunately it was less then an hour of running time by then, and they wanted to charge full admission, so they added more movie. Everything that comes after that is filler.

Since the movie is all about complex programming and its manipulation, its title alludes to the "Hello World" program which is often used to represent the basic syntax of a programming language.
