When timid eleventh-grader and math genius Kenji Koiso is asked by older student and secret crush Natsuki to come with her to her family’s Nagano home for a summer job, he agrees without hesitation. Natsuki’s family, the Jinnouchi clan, dates back to the Muromachi era, and they’ve all come together to celebrate the 90th birthday of the spunky matriarch of the family, Sakae. That’s when Kenji discovers his “summer job” is to pretend to be Natsuki’s fiancé and dance with her at the birthday celebration. As Kenji attempts to keep up with Natsuki’s act around her family, he receives a strange math problem on his cell phone which, being a math genius, he can’t resist solving. As it turns out, the solution to the mysterious equation causes a hijacking of the social networking site through which most of the world's social and business traffic flows.

When i 1st saw this movie a few months ago, i told everyone: "This movie should receive an Oscar!"...and now BANG! There it is! The New Candidated for an OSCAR: "Summer Wars"! And it was about time. Most of the Anime movies have wonderful plots, but they are always "put down" by hollywood with Disney Movies and likes. But not this time baby :p (i hope)
Anyway let us hope Summer Wars bring the Trophy home an receive the appreciation that deserves :D
For those who didn't see this movie yet, you should! It has a great story, with a lot of action, comedy and "cut-breathing" moments! You'll be addicitive to the movie since the first minute ^.^
Go see it before it gets REALLY FAMOUS ;)
