Customer Reviews: Total numer of reviews: 45 Average rating: 5.0 "Great anime, but make sure you watch it twice ^_-" Based on the popular Japanese anime series which ran during the 80s, this movie is a real treat. It's strength lies in its intricate (though somewhat confusing) plotline and colorful characters. The characters tend to be a rather obnoxious bunch, but even if you don't like this at first (I thought it made them all the funnier, myself), they *will* grow on you. If you enjoy this movie, make sure to check out the other UY movies and the TV series. "Come Again?" This, in my opinion, was a very entertaining anime. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is its generally difficult storyline to grasp. Yet, the fact it is difficult to understand the storyline creates the element of unpredictability. Overall, I enjoyed it, and I would reccomend it to anyone interested in anime. END "Very weird...good for UY fans" for some reason the end shocked me (forget what happened, but I know it shocked me) lots of scenes of all the UY teen gang hanging out, having fun, then theres some parts where everything is going by SO fast I have to rewind again and again and pause so I can stop and read the subtitles. "One of the best animated films, ever." Beutiful dreamer is a movie that brings the viewer into a world so strange that it takes several viewings to fully understand whats going on. This is not a bad thing though. The funny characters and hilarious slapstick humor are so good that you feel sorry when the movie is finally over. Make sure you watch the subtitled version, the dubbed one is terrible. "Wonderful and kinda confusing at first" A wonderful anime. Some of it didn't make sense if you missed part of it or you didn't get the ledgend.Otherwise it was something I didn't move the whole time I was watching it. END
