The Girl Who Leapt Thru Time to Have Cliched Romance

Just watched “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” starring that Brother Beat Dude (who seems to be making a niche playing these kind of shleppy "regular guys") as well as the lovely Naka Riisa, who constantly reminded me alternately of Erika Toda and…Kazunari Ninomiya!!! Kazunari Nino? AHAHAHA, Well, truthfully, even SHE'S admitted that she looks similar to that talented Arashi Boy…
Anyway, I was expecting a cool Sci-Fi filled movie, instead got a star-crossed romance that had little to do with Time Travel.  I mean, if you were a young science fiction filmmaker in ‘74 and a girl appeared and said she'd TIME TRAVELLED from the FUTURE of 2010, you would think he had better things to do than the usual cliched "I love you but I don't love You" CRAP high school melodrama! Sooo disappointing.
Yeah, I know I’m clearly in the minority, as EVERYONE seems to love this movie to pieces. Meh.
