Je conseille «Paradise Kiss» à tous ceux voulant regarder une romance légère. Avec des personnages intéressants et tous très différents les uns des autres, son exploration de la mode et de la création de celle-ci, une belle leçon de vie, la chose que je regrette la plus, est que ça ne soit qu'un film, et non un drama, où on aurait pu avoir le temps de mieux connaître chacun des personnages. J'ai vu ce film quelques fois, et pourtant, je n'ai pas hésité à le revoir encore, et ce fut un plaisir !

With quite a simple story and even simpler characters, it was delightful to watch. This is another no-brainer, but a nice one nonetheless. I am not fond of anime humour getting injected in every Japanese film or drama, so this one was good for a change in that aspect. The actors were good and I really liked the chemistry between the two leads. Also, this movie lives upto its name 'Paradise Kiss'. It has a couple of kissing scenes which were the best I have seen in anything Japanese so far.
The film primarily focuses on fashion, so the clothes were great in this one. While it drags out longer than required, it is a relaxing movie. Just grab a bowl of popcorn and watch it when you're bored. It will surely provide you with good humour and some cute romantic moments.

2-Storyline/Plot : To start with, I never read the manga or watched the anime, so for someone like me everything was a first time.
The story was set in a good way because it was something different: I didn't watch many shows or films about fashion before so the general concept was appealing enough.
3-Acting/Cast : I just like Kitagawa Keiko as an actress but I can't say the same thing about her character which seemed to have many flaws. On the other hand, George's character was well done.
Other character were okay, no special feelings about them.
4-Music : Kind of cool; it's not a bad music.
5-Rewatch value : It's possible for some cases.
6-The ending : My friends who already watched the anime told me that the anime's ending was really bad. All I know that the film's ending was a fluffy ending.
7-My impression : I never lost interest while watching this plus I appreciated the fashion-love combination. It didn't touch me deeply but it was enjoyable.
8-Overall : As a person who watched this film for itself not to compare it with the manga/anime, I believe that it was good enough to waste my time on it; an acceptable film overall.

Mukai Osamu is really adorable and his acting isn't bad either. I like how his character George seems to be comfortable with himself and makes the people around him comfortable. Kitagawa Keiko as Yukari (Caroline...lol) was just beautiful and I really felt the character's struggle to find herself. Did I mention she is gorgeous??? The other actors were great also especially Igarashi Shunji as Isabella. I absolutely adore Isabella.
The music is really good too.
I will probably rewatch this at some point.
I recommend this to everyone. :-)

I liked the story - a girl who doesn't even know who she is finds love in something she never thought about before. I loved the dresses and the the world of fashion that they introduced in this movie.
The cast was good - I can't compare it with the manga/anime but I thought that they played their parts well and the acting was done just fine.
I liked the music - from "Hello" by Yui to the songs by Sweetbox. I've been a fan of Sweetbox for the past few years and I loved actually hearing her in this movie!
I will definitely rewatch this movie again. I enjoyed it, plus since I downloaded it I've just decided to keep it on my computer so it'll be right there whenever I wanna watch it again (:
Overall - it's not the best movie out there, but I found it to be an enjoyable film with a nice story and a sweet love. I also loved how they didn't use any of those cheesy special effects I've seen in other Japanese movies based off a manga [High School Debut, Lovely Complex]. Sure there were cheesy parts in the story, but in a more believable way and not totally out there.
My personal opinion is I think it's worth watching (: It's a cute story!

The story was great, the cast too, although in some parts I regret to say that Kitagawa's acting wasn't so good. The music was very according to the movie. I'll definitely rewatch this movie sometime soon with a friend. Overall, a seven.
I enjoyed watching this movie so much that I'll watch the anime, because I've heard that the anime fans weren't happy with the outcome of the movie, so I'll watch to be able to make a good comparison

The trailer caught my attention immediately. Great soundtrack, good cinematography, interesting story.
When I saw the movie I was so glad that it met my expectations. While the story may not sound special I fell in love with the characters (as much as it is possible during a movie) and their unique qualities. The fashion itself is beautiful and the way the story is told as well.
It is unusual and (fans of japanese dramas/movies will maybe understand this) I was more than just happy about the ending. While I love my japanese dramas, they tend to not make we want to rewatch them, not as much as korean dramas do, since they have not yet mastered the art of finishing a drama the way I want it to. They like to make it all philosophical and deep but I'm simple, I only want to feel happy afterwards...I'm easily satisfied. But that's just my personal opinion.
I really recommend this movie, it is funny and cute and different and happy.

The chemistry between the two main actors was pretty good(it had me squealing in some parts but I tend to overreact), it is never a good thing if the two mains don't have chemistry or else you can feel the awkwardness between the two (or at least you feel awkward) Trust me, it is not like that in this movie. Overall the cast itself was pretty good, but I haven't watched many Japanese dramas or movies so it is only based on what I have seen already.
The story is one that you might see quite a bit, but only in certain aspects. I would give an example but I am afraid of spoiling it.
I didn't quite pay attention to the music so I guess it wasn't very appealing. If it was, I would have definitely remembered. I only remember the typical fashion show music.
I think I will rewatch this, perhaps with a few friends. After you see it, you might also want to share it because it really is a great movie. Enjoy! I hope this helped make up your mind on watching it!

The clothes, the designs, those fashionistas out there will surely love this movie. It's a good movie, about knowing yourself, about achieving dreams, fighting for what you like and finding love!
Well, it's a school themed movie, showcasing schools in Japan, the hardships of each students, about friendships. I really like it, and hearing that the anime is good to check too, I think I will.

I was expecting more intimate scenes between Caroline & George but it's still gr8. The music was okay, could have been better.
I really liked he chemistry between the main leads.
The only thing i didnt really liked was that it was a bit rushed. They could've made a drama that has at least 3-4 episodes, and describe better the love devolpment between George & Caroline.
Over all, the story was good, in my opinion the acting was gr8 even tho i think maybe Ikuta Toma would've been better but Osamu still did awsome job portrating almost the exact personality like in the anime, Keiko was also g8 and she even looked similar to the girl in the anime. Busing was okay but not really my taste but when we look everything together it definatly a 10.
