Hoshi wo Ou Kodomo is one of the most wonderful anime movie I watched lately. It have a deep story about life, love, death and remorse. Animation of landscapes and scenery is breathtaking. I particularly enjoyed how parallel universe with all his creauters was painted! Music is not intrusive but it fits neatly. Reminds me a litlle of one of the greatest anime - My Neghbor Totoro. Relationship and dialogs between Asuna (who lost her father) and Ryuuji (lost his wife) was interesting. 120 minutes gives me a full experience of the great adventure and the journey!
