Patema Inverted

The animation is stellar, no surprises there. Voice acting is great as well. Where this film suffers is pacing; it tends to get a little jarring from time to time, and the ending feels... incomplete. It just ends when it feels like it needed just that one last concluding scene where the plot is wrapped up and you just don't get that. But that aside, I had a good time watching this film, even though a lot of the emotion felt a little hollow. The cinematography was definitely what made this movie a film worth watching if nothing else.

In the midst of rehashed Hollywood story lines that we have seen a million times nowadays, it's nice to see something as original as "Patema Inverted" as far as the premise and scenarios go. It is a very interesting and mind-bending take on different groups of people who are affected by gravity in a different way. It also features nice chemistry between the two leads, breath-taking and detailed animation, one of the nicest end credits songs I have ever heard and a great twist ending that I did not see coming, along with the other twist that happens earlier in the film. If you are looking for something totally new and fresh, definitely check out "Patema Inverted."

Don't read any spoilers for this movie, just watch it if you like anime. I think this is better than most other anime movies out there, including many Ghibli movies.

It does start off a little slow, and the music is pretty mediocre, but if you keep watching you will be surprised how good this movie is. Make sure you pay attention to the small details, and it will all make sense. Watching it a second or third time, you notice things you didn't the first time you saw it! That's all I can really say. Give it a try, you may love it. The story is just fantastically done.

It's an amazing movie because it's story line is incredible...

It's been a while since I've seen a descent anime movie. I sometimes think my expectations have been too high.

This is a movie set well after an accident that inverted gravity for a lot of the world causing people to literally fall into the sky. Years later the survivors of this accident live in two worlds below and above ground. Each world fearing the other.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. I felt it was brilliantly executed and the massive twist at the end then took me ages to work out. The credits were nearly coming to the end before I went "OMIGOD!!" as the meaning of the ending suddenly occurred to me.

Great!
