How sad is this?
Adeel Hail
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
Cheryl
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

This review pertains to both "seven days: Monday-Thursday" and "seven days: Friday-Sunday".I recently watched this movie, which was a pleasant change to most BL ones. Two very popular male high schoolers, whose lives are "date but not stay", in a half-joke-half-serious manner agree to date for a week (mind, they normally date girls). Over the next seven days they unexpectedly learn to look behind each other's facade and to take chances. The focus is on communication, feelings and how to cross your own barriers, while coming out is never an issue (the barriers are about trust and fear of getting hurt alone, nothing to do with own acceptance or social tolerance).One should always bear in mind that the film is Japanese with obviously a Japanese target group. It is pertinent to a culture, in which people do not talk feelings, and where preserving face is of utmost importance. Hence, there is little going on compared to western fast paced emotional outbursts. Here, emotions evolve gradually, thoughts are expressed by means of inner dialogs (often the line between thoughts and real dialogs becoming blurry) and heroes' actions can be understood, however not always fully comprehended by a westerner. The acting is really good: the two kids manage to keep up the tension without the support of anyone else (in fact there are practically no other main characters at all). Definitely worth watching. Although it won't make you sob for long, your heart will probably skip a beat.

I had not big expectations but it was a failure from the beginning to the end. It was slow, nothing actually happend to keep my attention, they walk, they talk, they think, they sit on stairs or fences, look at each other... It'a waste of time. I like movies with some idea, not only pretty faces. Asian movies lost me at all.

There were no reviews, so I just made this quickly to tell it's a yes- yes. It's softcore and really really sweet and some times unexpected and funny!The best part is that there is NO annoying ex-girlfriend or relatives that are just there to make things harder between the couple and make you, the viewer, want to smash your computer screen in anger.By the way, I'm looking for more movies like that, that are more light and fun (instead of pure drama and tears) and revolve around the feelings of the two beautiful main characters, with light level of drama that is acceptable since it's about them discovering love and such. Gave a ten even considering it's softcore, if you know what I mean.
