Jacob Oller AV Club Narrative imbalance sends the Korean romance off-course, but at least the casual details that dream of Seoul’s overstimulated future are captivating along its scenic route. Rated: C+ May 30, 2025 Full Review Lee Zumpe Tampa Bay Newspapers Given its limited strengths, “Lost in Starlight” is likable, but unmemorable. Aug 4, 2025 Full Review Jennifer Green Common Sense Media A fetching animated love story from Korea, this layered, colorful adventure is a delight. Jun 10, 2025 Full Review John Serba Decider Too many faults in these stars.

Kaleb V An enjoyable romance, and the artwork is incredible. The music was good too. I'd recommend this film just for that. However, I did find myself feeling like the ending was very rushed. This movie could have used another 20 or so minutes to wrap things up. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/31/25 Full Review Audience Member the story is different and nice. love it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review Hera B Sincerely, I was first drawn by the cover of the movie, plus the stile of animation captivated me deeply; that's was my call to gife it a try. The story it's amazing, and I didn't anticipated any moment of the movie, since it keeps you stuck watching the colors, the scenery... It has such incredible finale, with that gripping last moments, not letting you know what the next scene will be. I have to be honest here and admit that I sobbed a little over it. I may be a little dramatic, but I'm in love with the music, the visuals, the story, the drama, THE reencounter. In my view, it's a great movie, that every anime fan should give a try to discover the art style, since it has its own essence to it. I would give it a 5 if it wasn't by the fact that I personallu think that everything went too fast, even if I know it all happens in a longer storyline. But it's just that they didn't let us really see how much Jay and Nan-young had between eachother, leading to us not being able to empathize with them in the end. Such a great movie, will definitely watch it again sometime. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/24/25 Full Review Macaya C I have seen so many heartfelt animes with amazing romances. And i have never cry BUT ive never cried so hard before for a movie before. This was amazing beautiful animated movie. The plot, the backstory. Just everything is a masterpiece. You have to watch. Its something that you will not regret! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/18/25 Full Review Lucas K. As a Korean native myself, it was surreal to see 2050 version of Seoul, in a beautifully animated way. Mesmerizing and delightful ways of storytelling left me in awe, wanting to fall in love, once again. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/13/25 Full Review Audience Member 이야기는 단순하지만 공감할 수 있으며 영상과 음악이 아름다웠기 때문에 만족합니다. / The story is simple but relatable, and I am satisfied because the visuals and music were beautiful.
