  worst movie in the history of the world! i hate it with a passion. a complete waste of time that leaves you wishing you had gone and shaved your dog for 2 hours instead. im dead serious. it sucks. no 1 on worst list for me. sofia coppola is overrated.

  Absolute Perfection. Magical camera-work, touching story, perfectly fitting music... everything a film should be. Absolutly magical, leaves you with a tingly warm wierd feeling - happy and strangly sad. I`ve watched it 7 times so far and will continue to watch it on a regular basis. Love it, love it, love it. Magical.

  someone said the film lacked "interesting dialouge"! who needs script when the chemisty is more powerful through visuals and eye contact. the way their bodies sit together and how they both consider that spontaneous late-night swim. I loved the arcade scene with charlotte, for me it explains the movie`s emotion in 20 seconds. very inspiring to wrie a screenplay.

  A beautiful romance with only one frail kiss. loved the photography during the neon night shots.

  why are people saying that it is offensive to the Japanese culture? the point of the movie was not to single out anyone, but to illustrate the meeting of two people who are, in their own lives, lost - not lost in Japan. They are both at points in their lives where they are questioning where they are meant to go, and they find comfort in eachother because of this - not because they feel left out in Japan (in fact Scarlet`s character is friends with some of the people etc, so why would her character be offending anyone?)... pay attention a bit!

  visually beautiful. a "love it or hate it" film, because it`s so mellow, sensitive, and unrushed. "no chemistry"? are you kidding me? provides a shallow look into japanese culture and people, but that`s what the characters were experiencing. as someone who has lived overseas and struggled with culture shock, this movie felt "real". and did i say "visually beautiful" yet? good.

  I think it was a well-made movie showing the intricateness of human relationship. I am a Japanese and have seen many movies made in Hollywood about Japan and have always felt wrong about them. But I think Sofia Coppola has made the best presentation of Japan so far in any Hollywood films!

  Terrible movie. Stereotyped Japanese culture and people in a very negative way. Suprised no commentary was made about this by critics. All in all the script was poor and the characters were like cardboard cutouts.
