Woah. This is really cool :)
It is a little crazy, but it is just beautifully complex and just so good
Aw man, it's a great film <3 I think the casting was quite good but they did miss a few things out from the book, but it seems pretty good and you should read the book too! I find Patrick is brilliantly done, Sam not so much but I think with Emma Watson if she continues this feel about her playing the "knowledgeable character" in films it'll fit really well. And Charlie is really cute, and I feel kinda connected with him and it's really sad. Oh man, it's like one of the only films that I cry in the cinema ;__;
Aw, it's so cute. I want a Dragon :3
Oh wow
Awwww it's a lovely film and Jack Frost is quite.... erm... nice ;)
But, that aside it was really nice (even though I looked really awkward in the cinema as I don't have children). Can't wait for the DVD! :D
I cried about it, but I don't really like it as the story just doesn't feel right.
It has a bit of story, but it feels rather weak for a Ghibli film and it just doesn't have the excitement or magic of the other Ghibli films :(
I really enjoyed the film and it was really nicely animated. It was sad and brought a tear to my eye like most of the films by Ghibli and those related to it. It also threw a twist in the roles played by people out in the countryside as the mother is on her own looking after her children and not once regrets (from what looks of it) dropping out of college.
The great bit was the two sides of the wolf-man/werewolf thing where one grew up to be a wolf and the other a human being. I would love to know if Ame ever came back to see his mother or he just lived out his days in the forest looking after it.
Also, the transformation looked incredibly natural, which although it is animated is incredibly difficult to define but it did not look cheesy and the camera helps this and it captures most of the beauty Ghibli are able to do in their films as well.
When you look back at it, there isn't the adventure which you usually get from Ghibli films but you don't need that to enjoy this film as I think there is a good enough storyline and it is just nice to watch.
