    First of all, please do not expect me to really 'formal' here. I will not really specifically talk about the story, art, sound , character etc... I will spontaneously talk ok, let's be fair. Ok, no spoilers ok. shh.. Before I tell you what I think about this movie, I wanna tell you a bit about my trip to Kanagawa prefecture, Japan where I visited F.Fujiko Fujio museum. It is about 1000 Yen , I booked a ticket just in the freaking morning at Tokyo before going there (which is about 9 hours before the visiting time!) which actually I am so fortunate to be ableto get 2 free seats , one for my sister and one for myself.nn'Yo , hey we are discussing review here hey...!' Oh wait, just let me slowly , immerse you into the creator's mind.nnFujiko-sensei is really someone (just when I typed this I really ....ahh... think he is just..) he is just super captivating and the motives and he tries to deliver via his works mostly focuses on one thing : 希望 , if I romanize this, it becomes 'kibou'. Kibou means hopennIt is a highly , and furthermore, let's say 'heavily' mentioned in his interview which was documented and displayed at the museum. I still remember holding a small toy-like phone which can translate to other languages (hmm as I recall it has Korean, Chinese, Spanish, English, Portuguese and Russian!) I hear him talks in Japanese rather than English. Let's pretend you do not understand at all what he says, I replayed thrice on his speech, he literally says : 'Spread the hope to the world'nnAnd there's one picture I remember, he went to Egypt to get some ideas about Nobita's and Doraemon adventure....oh my God, please take me back to Japan haha....nnMoving next to this movie, there's a part where a villain being portrait as the same as the main character and I appreciate Takahashi-san 'brings' out the emotions at that part (this part of the movie is the huge mystery) because they did not actually 'explains' who is the one that mimics the main character!! But in the end Nobita , Sunyo, Giant, Shizuka and of course not being said Doraemon had a really great time on their adventure.nnAt the course of ending the adventure, of course, 'kibou' appears and embedded deep within my fragile heart… and woke me up from the long hibernation so I can take my first step again to realise longed dream.

    This was my first Doraemon movie in like two years. As someone who has always loved Doraemon movies, as well as the series itself, the enjoyment I had while watching this movie had more to do with nostalgia than with the actual aspects of the movie. ...There are only a few hrs left till the New Year, I came across this movie, and ended up watching out. I didn't have a lot of expectations, all I was looking for was a nice wholesome doraemon movie. And that's what I got. It's light, it's wholesome, it's Doraemon, it's good! It explored a crucial geographical aspect of ourplanet and added a fantasy touch to it.nnBut as you all know, not all Doraemon movies are created equally, and this one definitely falls short when compared to Steel Troops or Explorer. nnOf course, I wouldn't have liked it if I wasn't already a doraemon appreciator. nnSo I don't think this is for everybody. nnThe visuals may be glorious, but there is no considerably depth to this one.nnI'd say, it's more of a light change of pace than the emotional rollercoasters that some of the Doraemon movies are!

    A new Doraemon movie that I'm going to just shorten it in 1 sentence: Doraemon: Nobita and his another adventure with his friends where they continue to fuck with time and space and at the same time saving another girl or animals he found along the way, but this time it's both, at somewhere in Antarctic but not really. This movie was an original story from the anime staffs, not from the original author so some of you may think it's kinda mehhhh, but not really. I think they did a good job with the movie Story: 8/10 The story was tell good with enough details to grasp and itbrought back some nostalgiannArt: 9/10nThe art is amazing with 3DCGI for the backgroundnnCharacters: 8/10nThe characters are, of course, the same so there's nothing much to talk aboutnnEnjoyment: 8/10nThe development of the story is quite funny, definitely better than in the pastnnOverall: 9/10nnSo that's thatnn[SPOILER]nAfter credits suggest that the next Doraemon movie 38 will be the remake of Doraemon movie 19
