Reviews for "contrast: a love story"

Pretty good - could have been better.

A decent idea executed fairly well. Yes, the major premise, as summarized by the somewhat hackneyed quote at the end, is certainly there, but the film as a whole seems to lack substance. The abruptness of the meeting of the two dragon-things does not allow for much empathy to be built by the viewer, and this, in my opinion, takes away from the story. As well as this, the male's reaction to the female's death was handled is a somewhat underwhelming manner. A blue oval? Really? This made the animation feel incomplete. Also, I hate it when people fade their music out; it feels cheap, like there is no real ending to the track. Nonetheless, it was well animated, with some nice "camerawork".

i see what your saying, but what else is an impressionist tear but an oval?

Beautiful

When I brought this one up I had no idea what I was in for. Several tissues later, I'm done crying; well, at least done enough to write this review. This was pure art.

Horsenwelles responds:

=D! i seriously love you guys for little bits of social commentary like this

damit (crying)

my loved one is laying beside me now and watching this brought back the feeling of, "what would i do with out her?". this was one of the most abstractly beautiful things i have seen in a while. im also happy that i haven't grown bitter to the point to where this could not positively effect me. A concept so simple and complex shortened to less then a minute. i could not help but cry. now there are tears all over my Japanese language book and my love is about to get a rude, sniffling awakening.
thank you for this.

Horsenwelles responds:

your welcome ^^! just dont drown your entire library in tears o.o

I hate you so much right now

Because of this I started crying, something I haven't done in a very long time

Horsenwelles responds:

awwwe! this happens to a bunch of people when they watch it apparently o.o

aww

that's sad but sweet. Thank you for sharing.
