Grave of the Fireflies Review

Overall Rating 7.0 out of 10

A very sad and painful story. Watch at your own risk.

This one is a very sad story that kind of got too close to my sore wounds.

It is about brother and sister of their way to what is essentially slow death. Their parents died; more distant relatives mostly took advantage of them rather then helped. They ended up homeless, then slowly Setsuko died of malnutrition. He lasted a little longer just to see his country he was so proud of losing the WWII and then he died as well.

This is probably the most sad, cruel and unfair show out there. It is about how one slowly dies after life takes a wrong turn. So applicable to us after that financial crisis.

Because of that I have mixed feelings on whether to recommend it or not. Not even Silence of the Lambs made me so sad and frightened about my future.

It is painful to watch. More than any other show I watched. At least for me that was this way.

That is a testament to why world is such a evil cruel place and people are evil.

Watch at your own risk.
