Review: Summer Wars



Oz is the latest technological trend that has captured billions among billions of people worldwide. People use it for various activities such as games, communication, and even functions around the city such as utilities and traffic lights. When a virus strikes the system and steals people's accounts by asking it a numerical riddle, the world faces an impending doom.

We follow Kenji Koiso, who works as temporary maintenance with his friend Takashi, as he agrees to take on a "summer job" with Natsuki. He finds out that this "summer job" is to pretend to be Natsuki's fiance and impress her family, especially her grandmother.

Summer Wars is a comedic sci-fi film that promotes family togetherness. With these parallel stories tying together to create the "summer war" of the century, it easily pulls viewers in with a great set of relatable characters, vibrant animation, and an easy flowing storyline. This has a great message for everyone and is highly entertaining.
