Review:
" Hatsukoi Loss Time " was a decent movie.
First of all, they managed the time-traveling theme well. It didn't get confusing and it was well paced. The drama was just in enough doses to keep things interesting and just right for the love story. However, the latter felt like it needed some more time to be properly developed. The doctor's story was sideblocked into a few mentions here and there and it would have been nice if they had given that story line some more screen time. The characters should have been more in-depth presented, as the male lead had some family issues that weren't properly explored. The performances, though, were good from everyone in the cast, especially from the two main leads.
