I sometimes dislike the movie adaptations of BL manga (see my review of Doushitemo Furetakunai). But I loved this one so much. Why? The original manga had a good story but uninteresting, standard-issue artwork. The movie took the best parts of the dialogue and combined them with elegant, beautiful visuals that brought out the themes. The result was so hypnotic I had to watch it twice in two days (together with part 2, Friday-Sunday).
The only minor weakness here is that I wish the two parts were presented as one continuous movie. The ending of part 1 is great, though, and both parts are equally strong. I'll write more about pt 2 in a review for Friday-Sunday.
