Critics Consensus

As beautifully animated as it is emotionally satisfying, Your Name adds another outstanding chapter to writer-director Makoto Shinkai's filmography.

Beautifully animated (we're talking Studio Ghibli standards here), Your Name captures that sensation of waking up from a dream you wish lasted longer, or misplacing a name that's still warm on your tongue, but has just departed.

By the time Your Name reaches its moving finale, the Next Big Thing tag doesn't seem quite enough for Shinkai. He's arrived already.

5/5

By the time Your Name reaches its final half-hour or so, the film has moved so far beyond its initial premise that if you think back to the beginning, you'll be astonished by how far it's come.

It’s a film that, in every dazzling animated frame, increasingly yet subtly captures something essential about the human condition.

5/5

An emotionally intense, unforgettable viewing experience, filled with “coming-of-age” fun and spiritual longings.

It’s a contemplative and introspective film that uses the body-swapping gimmick to explore growing up and experiencing life from another perspective, and it celebrates how connections to culture and family shape who we are.

This movie has so much layered on it. Just saw it for the first time with its rerelease in theaters. Best way to describe it is if concepts from Freaky Friday and The Lake House met each other in the anime world and fell in love.

Possibly the best anime movie I've seen this year. I watched it for it's 10th anniversary in theaters for the first time and this is the most beautiful anime movie I've ever seen. I like everything about it. It feels so real. It's such a great movie, the characters, the voices, the music, the scenery, everything, it's such a good movie.
