Japanese Movie '' The Door Into Summer '' is the adaption of the novel by the same title. The story is a sci fi drama about time traveling and family.
And even though the story is interesting, the length of the drama didn't allow it to fully develop. Thus, it felt like watching a sequence of events that followed one another like a highlight read rather than a smooth progress. Also, some themes weren't handled nicely enough.
The cat, on the other hand, was cute. And the performances by every actor and actress of the cast was enjoyable.
So, overall, four out of ten. The length was its worst enemy unfortunately.
