Bring a teen, or your inner emo teen, to Weathering With You.
brings small-town runaway Hodaka to big-city Tokyo, all low clouds and shiny streets after months of rain with no relief. After some nights on the street, Hodaka stumbles into a job at a trashy magazine, helping to interview psychics and cranks. It’s while working on a story about “sunshine girls” that he meets Hina, who in the absence of her parents is taking care of a younger brother and scrambling to make ends meet.
After a sprightly first half, the movie gets a little bogged down in its feelings. “Whoever uses too much weather power gets spirited away,” a character darkly warns, and while I laughed at the Hayao Miyazaki pun inserted either by Shinkai—who idolizes the anime master—or the film’s translator, I also wished for a little more of Miyazaki’s energy, his characters’ stubborn unwillingness to stew in their dilemmas.
’s ending is less precarious for its characters, though more precarious for the Earth, as the film embraces the climate change parable it’s been flirting with throughout. My daughter and her friends had a lot to say aboutis a pretty good film that becomes a glorious movie-watching experience if you can do it right. Embrace your inner emo teen.
