Movie Reviews of Spirited Away

Movie Review: One of Miyazaki's Best
Summary: 5 Stars

All of the movies by this director are wonderfully imaginative. Spirited Away was our first introduction to studio ghibli and since then we've watched (and eventually bought) almost all of the titles available in English. Some of this movie may be a bit scary for very young or sensitive children, but with parents to explain what's happening and to remind that it's pretend, it should be fine.

Movie Review: Simply Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a wonderful story for viewers of almost any age (assuming parental supervision, of course). The animation is marvelous and no detail is overlooked. The music and voices are perfect for the story. This is a film that should not be missed. Highly recommended!

Movie Review: A must see!
Summary: 5 Stars

My favorite cartoon! I bought the DVD for my cousins, ,8 & 7 y/o,They loved it. U gotta watch it to enjoy the fabtasy world these japanese guys have created...! mesmerizing...!

Movie Review: People put too much thought into this.....
Summary: 5 Stars

I thought that the movie was wonderful. I think that people put way too much thought into it. It's a cartoon! It's not supposed to be normal!

I thought that it was excellent, very creative, and the art was amazing. The plot was very simple (i.e. a little girl gets thrown into a strange world and has to find her way out of it) and was very easy to follow. She meets some strange people and see's some strange things along the way. Bottom line. The cultural emphasis on the movie doesn't affect the overall feel, so fear not. At most you'll have trouble remembering the names because they're not American substitute names. Luckily, there are only a handful of characters are introduced throughout the movie.

As far as the weirdness factor goes...I can only say this: "If you've watched and enjoyed "Alice in Wonderland' then you can watch and enjoy this film." Alice in Wonderland is just as weird if not weirder. I don't care what anyone says; especially considering the author's inspiration for it. But that's something altogether different.

My only issue with the movie was that I thought that it should have been just a little bit longer. Other than that it was almost flawless.

If you're still not convinced then just rent the movie instead. And if you love it (like I do) Then buy it.

Movie Review: My Favorite Miyazaki Film!!
Summary: 5 Stars

This was the first Miyazaki film I had ever seen, and it got me hooked!! This is still my absolute favorite of his movies...But I have yet to see one of his films that I didn't like. Spirited Away is a great movie!!
