This is the first time I'm giving a review. It's a must watch movie. Not cringey at all and full of sentimental values especially the meaning behind the Gerberas flowers. Honestly, did not expect it to be this good because I have watched something similar which is "I Want to Eat Your Pancreas" but this movie is two times more emotional. You will know why when you watch it. This movie shows exactly how well the character development goes along the way. It may start of a bit slow at the beginning but towards half of the movie, it makes the audience feel touching between the two main characters. Even though they don't express much about their feelings towards each other. The relationship between them feels so natural and genuine through their actions and the way they treated each other so well. Please prepare tissue because I really mean it. What I learned from this movie is to always appreciate peoples around you and cherish each and every moment with your loved ones while you are still able to. There is also nostalgic plot at the end. Make sure to watch it!
Watched this movie on Netflix at 2am. I rarely cry at movies unless it's really good, and trust me this did not disappoint. I don't often watch foreign movies, but this one was so good. I was struggling to breathe near the end and my tears never stopped 😭😭. The acting was incredible, the music was good and the meaning behind the flowers was such a unique context to the story. It made me remember someone who I loved deeply but could no longer talk to as they moved on. So this story struck me in the heart so deeply, I haven't felt so affected from a movie in years. To anyone who questions watching this movie, please watch it won't disappoint.
P. S just learn this Ren Nagase is a Japanese idol in a group called King and prince. I was just streaming their music and it's so good. Cinderella girl song is so cute.

From the beginning, you will know that there is no "hope". However, as you get deeper into the film, you want to hope for them.
Great Movie, as a romance fan of "dead" in the synopsis this movie satisfied me a lot. Before the 3 Gerberas reveal, i think the author do "too much" that this movie kinda feel like Your Lie in April and I want to eat your pancreas. I just don't like how this movie look like cheapskate of Your Lie in April(Anime), even tho this movie has potential but kinda wasted because they are "trying too much".
I really like the story telling, especially the 3 Gerberas scene, I love it really. Haruna, Miura, and Hayasaka really did well in this 3 Gerberas especially Miura the best character in this film.
Sinematography? Well its ok.
Acting? Good but not great.

I watched it long ago so i forgot most of it, but I remember some scene. I am not satisfied with the scene where akito die, because ayaka is paint on his nail, and bro was on his death bed. There was a pipe on his face so he don't die, and ayaka thought that THIS moment is perfect for my nail painting session. So when I'm trying to cry, ayaka is painting his nails as if he is not human but a mannequin hand and personally haruna is not that good at acting and I feel like the end scene where akito is reading haruna's post to him, they drag too long. I'm happy to show to my review. And now I'm am writing because I am very critical thinker, others say so. I am very proud, so go and watch sakamoto days.
"Drawing Closer" is a total tearjerker! It's one of those movies that just gets you right in the feels. The story is so good, it's like a perfect puzzle that just fits together. I've cried so many times watching it, I've lost count.
But it's not just about sadness, it really makes you think about love in a whole new way. It shows you how complicated and messy relationships can be, but also how strong and beautiful they can be too.
The characters are so real, you feel like you know them personally. They go through so much, but you just want to root for them the whole time. It's one of those movies that just sticks with you, even after it's over.
You really get a sense that the director understands people, and they made a movie that's both beautiful to watch and emotionally powerful. The actors are amazing, they really bring the characters to life. I can't recommend this movie enough, it's a must-see!
Don't forget to bring some napkins to wipe your tears!
