A teenage boy and girl embark on a quest to meet each other for the first time after they magically swap bodies.

Critics Consensus

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

Brooklyn Magazine

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.

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.

Rated: 5/5

Spotlight on Film

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

Rated: 5/5

AniMat's Review (YouTube)

As much as it is very well done, I don’t think it’s worth putting it up on such a high pedestal on par with the works of Hayao Miyazaki. Your Name is good, but for me, it's not worthy of breaking Spirited Away’s record good.

Rated: 8/10

Extremely overrated. This is a great movie and all, however it is nowhere near a masterpiece. Not even the best anime movie. It's worth watching, its just nowhere near the likes of A Silent Voice, Interstellar, A Bronx Tale and other 10/10 movies.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
