8/10

Strong story lends to some powerful acting.

Unfortunatly , their lips aren't moving right. So their either lip synching or it's been dubbed. Richard Troxell's the best in this. His emotion drips off the screen. So's his cohort. The actress playing butterfly looks and acts too old for the part. I personally loved this film. But as they are singing in opera terms, many might not appreciate it. It's up to you. (example: I found it to be uplifting and another person found it to be more depressing than The Refelecting Skin.) So what you take from it is entirely up to you. :)

9/10 (can't give it a full 10 because of the dubbing/lip synch problems.

Quality: 9/10 Entertainment: 10/10 (how can you not. with such powerful singing) Replayable: 6/10

Trivia
The entire Japanese village set and house were built in Tunisia, Northern Africa.

Goofs
During Act 2 and Act 3, a blooming wisteria is shown to be growing along the house's roof above the porch. In reality wisteria would not have been grown here as the house's structure would have been unsuitable for it. Wisteria is a plant known to become heavy and massive with age; it would have been grown along a sturdy trellis or stone wall instead as not to cause any damage.
