This film faces a difficult task. They are attempting to take 1000 minutes of heartwarming material and condense it into 94 minutes. Understandably some stuff from the show/ visual novel would have to be cut. Frankly, they chose the wrong stuff to cut, and what they chose to cram in feels rushed. The story has serious pacing problems, the first hour focuses on Tomoya and Nagisa meeting and making a play. And then last 30 minutes tries to shotgun everything else at you. Tomoya has very little agency in the story. He has to be dragged along kicking and screaming to make any progress. At that point it doesn't feel like character growth, it just feels like a pawn being pushed to the correct location on the board. It may take longer but stick with series if you want to do these characters and this story justice.

The animated series is one of my favorite series of all time, but I found the movie to be very weak. There was a significant change in character setting and scenarios, which was great, but this story is way too long to be compressed into a 100-minute movie. The end result was a rushed plot development, and the movie ended without the audience being able to connect with any of the characters.

The animation wasn't as impressive as the TV series, and I thought there were way too many still-pictures, which seemed like laziness. Lighting seemed too bright as well, though I guess they were trying to illustrate the dreaminess of the story. Kyoto Animation (which produced the TV series) once again impresses me with the animation quality compared with Toei.

Another fatal mistake was changing the "Dango Big Family" song, which was a masterpiece to anyone who has seen the TV series.

For those who has seen the TV series, I'm sure this movie would feel lacking in comparison, and those who hasn't probably can't keep up with the accelerated story development. Watch the anime series.

I feel a little disappointed after reading. Some places have beautiful pictures and music, and some places have good atmosphere, but this is a few advantages. The whole work has many problems, far from the Kyoto animation version. However, to be honest, even if the information content of the work "CLANAND" is removed, it is not appropriate to put it in the 90-minute theater version. It is very wise for Kyoto Animation to show this with the capacity of 44 episodes. In this work, the characters can't stand up, and the characters are completely reduced to plot promotion tools, which is relatively flat. The plot advances too fast, and the emotion is not supported enough, which makes it difficult to resonate. The rhythm is also not well handled, and the priority is not in place, which makes people feel fragmented.

I must start out by saying people put strikes against this movie because they thought they had changed things that were so good in the show, mainly the song "Dango Daikazoku". These people are mistaken, nothing was changed. The movie came BEFORE the show, so those strikes should not exist.

I guess the main reason people didn't like this movie was because of the quality of the show. I watched the movie first, and with an open mind, and found it amazing. Sure, some parts got very goofy, but most of the scenes did really well in giving the characters personality. Sure, you didn't get back stories for anyone, but that would make the movie too long. This was still a very deep, emotional movie. It really makes you think.

The ending was something the movie really had over the show. Don't get me wrong, I still adore the ending to the show, but the movie ending had a much better metaphor and was more believable. No matter how much I love the show, I still look at the movie as the bit of nostalgia that really hooked me on Clannad.
