himurahidekaz I was a fan when this first came out and I was waiting for this movie ever since I finished season 2! So I did watch it on KissAnime and it was amazing! 10 Stars! The story starts off with typical Kyon walking to the club room and he sees Nagato there reading a book. Then Haruhi bursts in and demands they do a Christmas party 8 days from now. So Kyon has to buy more materials for the party. Then he suddenly falls asleep at his house! Then he wakes up and when he went to school couple of things went on 1. Haruhi is Not there 2. Koizumi Is Not There 3. Asakura is back! 4. Miss Asahina is a normal human 5. Yuki Nagato in the literacy Club not SOS Brigade! 6. Kyon is being rude So then the story continues on when after two days of filler plots he finds out where Haruhi Is located! He runs over to the school and waited for Haruhi. But this Haruhi does not know who she is or does Koizumi!(Then the internet shut down) So I was only able to watch up until that point but I bet this will be a good ending! Its a must watch for any Suzumiya Fan or hater! Or even a anime fan at all.

Robert Thompson (justbob1982) Version I saw: UK DVD releaseActors: 6/10Plot/script: 7/10 Photography/visual style: 6/10Music/score: 7/10Overall: 7/10Disappearance is a fine addition to the Haruhi franchise that began with Nagaru Tanigawa's novels before being adapted into two confusingly-ordered seasons of anime. It begins by depriving us of the main character, before bringing her back in a blaze of glory that reminded us how fun she had been all along. It's light-hearted fun with a surprising existential undercurrent that in no way spoils the ride. As long as you have seen enough to be familiar with the main characters, you don't even have to wade through all of the anime series that comes before, although it does help.One wonders whether it is necessary, though. Arguably, this should just have been divided into 7 or 8 episodes and inserted into the series in place of the notorious 'Endless 8'. Some even say that it was, until someone came up with the bright idea that gave them a movie at comparatively little extra cost and effort. I'll leave that for you to decide.For my full review, see my independent film blog on Blogspot, Cinema Inferno: http://cinemainferno-blog.blogspot.co.uk

Kevin Almroth The movie "The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya" was...perfect. It was the greatest movie of all time. Sure, you may not agreed, but that's what i think. But I totally recommend you seeing this.First I need to point out that this is literally my first review ever written, so sorry if I really suck at this.Anyway, this movie is very different from the anime. It's much more serious and it actually made me cry. If you haven't seen the anime, you will get a little confused. Since the plot is heavily based on it. So please watch the anime first. It will be much easier to understand. But if you already are a fan, you should see this movie right away.Like I said before, i would say that this is the best movie of all time. And that's saying a lot coming from a guy who has seen "The Godfather", "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" and "Titanic". But this movie seems to have everything! Great music, lovable characters, smooth animation, good voice-acting and the list goes on! Another thing i should mention is it's length. This movie is 2 hours and 40 minutes long. Which makes it the second longest movie in Japan. (Right next to "Final Yamato") You may think that this is way too long, but i would say that the longer, the better.So overall, if you're a fan of the series or just want to see a good movie, check this one out. However, it's not for all ages. It's really sad and at times even scary. It should be rated PG-13. But still, check it out. It's a fun ride that you will never forget.Score: 10/10

pittyacg I remember watching the first anime series without knowing anything about the way it aired. When I saw the first episode (which was the movie made by the SOS Brigade) I wanted do drop the series, thinking "WTF?". Well, fortunately, I didn't and I immediately became a fan.Even though endless eight annoyed me big time, I really enjoyed seeing Haruhi in the 2009 version.I couldn't help but wait for this movie. Well, firstly, I have to say that I don't live in Japan, so I watched it on a creepy quality version available on the net. Also, I haven't read the novels. Can't make comparison of stuff, but I don't want to anyway.I would have rated this 9.5 / 10, because I think nothing can be perfect, but, in my opinion, this was close. I really liked the story and I can't understand how the one who wrote this can have such good ideas. The emotions are touching the viewer, thing that is really important (if not the most) in such a movie.A short summary of the movie: It's almost Christmas and the SOS Brigade decides to spend this holiday together. Everything was normal until one morning, when Kyon is waking up in a world with Mikuru and Yuki normal people, and Haruhi nowhere to be found. Furthermore, nobody remembers that a Suzumiya Haruhi ever existed in their class.The characters, like always, are great. It was so very nice to see a shy and "ordinary" version of Yuki, but I'll always remain a big fan of Haruhi.In terms of animations, from what I could see (I told you, the quality was beyond awful), everything looked fine. The characters' design is really good, like always.Heh, I don't think I can write any more. If you know and like The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, you should definitely watch and like this. I don't know anything else to say but that I hope more Haruhi movies/series will be released as soon as possible.So, 10/10. :)
