Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

For anyone wondering, the (Original Japanese Version) does have subtitles, as I was wondering it myself as it isn't clearly mentioned. The other "Your Name" is just an English dub. This will go down as one of the best films of all time. If you haven't seen this movie, you are missing a piece of art and a story that shouldn't be left out of your life. There's something incredibly unique and beautiful about this hand-drawn art - time, passion, and traditions, that can never be duplicated by 3D animations pumped out by computer software that we're all used to in the United States. Every scene in this movie is immaculate - a qualified desktop wallpaper or piece of art that could be hung on your wall, and all of it looked stunning watching it on my OLED65B6 TV. The characters are loveable, the artwork is unbelievably good, the story is unforgettable and ends perfectly, all of it leaving a pleasantly warm pressure in your chest. I've watched both the English sub and dub (via Amazon Video). If you want the true experience in the manner of which was meant to be watched (being a Japanese movie), then watch the English sub. The English dub just can't perfectly replicate all the scene by scene cultural nuances and voice inflections as well as Japanese voice actors (which makes sense as this is based in Japan, with Japanese characters, in Japanese culture, etc). But if you're not a subtitle fan, the English dub won't hurt your viewing experience, as the voice actors did a fairly good job, and even the music featured was also translated/sung in English convincingly well! The creator, Makoto Shinkai was extremely modest, being the Japanese man he is, and even felt his own creation was incomplete - whether or not that's true, I'm truly grateful I was alive to see this. With all its perfections and imperfections, "Your Name" is.... "....Nothing more, nothing less-- than a beautiful view."
