Theme refreshing, content deep
I think many people have misread the theme of this movie- obviously there is the evil of man in the iron industry, but there is also the evil of nature, as evidenced by the gods of the forest who let their hate for mankind consume them. This is why I love this movie- it is not the traditional American hippie-nature-is-always-good, nor is it trample across the forest. BOTH...

Incoherent eco-babble
The plot can be summed up in two words: Incoherent eco-babble. Oh yeah, and we shouldn't nurture hate in our hearts. Other than that, the animation was very good but, with the exception of a few landscape scenes, not what I would call stunning. My 9-year old daughter enjoyed it more than I did, but my 12-year old was instantly weirded out by it. That said, once you...

Theme refreshing, content deep, Mai 24 2003
I think many people have misread the theme of this movie- obviously there is the evil of man in the iron industry, but there is also the evil of nature, as evidenced by the gods of the forest who let their hate for mankind consume them. This is why I love this movie- it is not the traditional American hippie-nature-is-always-good, nor is it trample across the forest. BOTH mankind and nature have lost their way, and the main character, a sort of dark, brooding, savior of sorts comes to tell them that both of them are wrong and if they continue on their path both of them will be destroyed. That's at least what I got out of the movie. I think the visuals are stunning and serve to emphasize the story and theme, and the violence has a purpose for being in the movie, and could not be called gratuitous by anyone's measure. I love this movie because it is quite different from most of the anime that seems to make its way to American shores. I don't know if they're keeping all the best stuff in Japan, but some of the stuff I see is no better than our own American animation in terms of content and execution. Then of course, are the rare gems such as this. Miyazaki is a genius, the equivalent of George Lucas (before the prequels), Steven Spielberg, and Walt Disney (the man, not the company), all rolled into one, with a vision and craft that transcends them all. Magnificent.Billy Bob Thorton had no reason to be cast for this movie- bad decision, but I won't let it mar my love of the underlying movie.

A Masterpiece, Aoû 7 2006
I first saw this movie on TV, and I came in in the middle, however I was immediately hooked. I got my mom to rent it from Netflix and then I promptly bought it. I have had it for a bout two weeks and have watched it nearly every day. This is one of the best movies I, personally, have ever seen and it seems to never get old. There are so many small details to miss that you can watch it 10 times and still not see all there is to see. This is one DVD that you can get your money's worth from. I think the kudamo (did I spell that right?), the little tree spirits, are really funny and cute. Buy it!!!!!!!

An animated epic, Jui 25 2003
Par Un client
While Disney is regurgitating the same old formula year afer year and training us for the expected, what are the filmmakers doing over in Japan? They're simply turning out the most creative tales, jawdropping visuals and (especially in Miyazaki's films) the imaginitive UNexpected that animation has ever seen. After growing up spoon-fed with Disney, what I've seen of Miyazaki has effectively hit me over the head with a steel beam."Princess Mononoke" is absolutely an animated epic. I really think that "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings" (with their epic journeys, warring factions and unknown lands) had a strong influence on this film, and they give you a good idea of the general plot and feel. Then, throw in samurais and a big helping of Japanese myth (which really isn't any more objectionable to western religion than our own Mother Earth myth, if this is a concern for you). Beyond any feel or ingredients list, though, is an awesomely complex and creative storyline, the like of which I've never seen before in an animated film. I belive that this film is so good that it could easily stand being done in live action and could be huge on the scale of a LoTR movie (no joke). Princess Mononoke just "happens" to be done in animation. Princess Mononoke really blew me away. I've never been a fan of Japanese animation, but I'm becoming a fan of Miyazaki. The difference is in the story and the creativity. I highly recommend Princess Mononoke to everyone, but especially to the average moviegoer who needs convincing to try it out. The only folks I'd like to warn are those who have a tendency to think or say "this is weird" 20 minutes into a film and give up on it. You have to have a little bit more of an open mind than Disney would like us to have. You'll be rewarded if you closely follow the film and have that open mind.

Princess Mononoke, Jui 18 2003
This is simply an amazing movie. As animated movies go this is one of the best in secent years. It is also suitable both for children and adults. It can be viewed both for entertainment enjoyment and on a more serious level. Indeed it brings up a lot of cultural and moral issues but there is no doubt that it is still an exploration in fantasy. This is already considered by many to be a classic and a "must-have" and this is justified. It definetely has that intriguing foreign flavor but everyone can identify with it.

Vivid, Crisp, Brilliant, Jui 16 2003
First, some concessions. I do not speak Japanese, so I can say nothing about the Japanese language version or the quality of the translation. Also, I am not an rabid anime fan, and in fact this was the first japanese-animated feature film I ever saw (I have seen more since). Finally, this movie takes maturity to watch and appreciate - there is some graphic animated violence and mature themes throughout. Now, on to the review.This animated film by Hayao Miyazaki is absolutely amazing. It embodies all the things you should look for in animation, and it stands as one of the greatest films - and, along with Ran (directed by Kurosawa), my favorite film from Japan. First, let me say that the story was terrific, using developed characters and tackling real-world problems of environmentalism and technology tastefully and without an abundance of feel-good Sierra-club nonsense a la Captain Planet and Ferngully. It explores humanity's relationship with nature, the struggle for human survival, and the difficulties of human advancement. While there is a large degree of sentimentalism (Randians beware) the story should appeal to a wide range of audiences. The most amazing thing about the movie is the art and art direction, all masterfully done. The entire movie is a feast for the eyes, both characters and backgrounds are drawn with fascinating detail and rich, crisp color. The artistic and directorial talent deserves the utmost respect. You'll have to see the movie to believe how good it is. The sound is well done, but for those of you wanting to utilize your overly expensive surround sound systems, you'll find yourself missing out (sorry). The sounds are crisp, though, and complement the visual experience beautifully. The music is a chapter all to itself, both complementing the other senses and leading your emotions throughout the whole film. The voice talent is mixed. Americans will certainly recognize Jada Pinkett Smith (horrible), Minnie Driver (excellent), Billy Bob Thorton (so-so), and Claire Daines (excellent). A fellow reviewer claims that the poor voice actors hurt the movie beyond repair, but this is nonsense. The dubbing is excellent (read: does not look stupid and mismatched). Regarding translation, see the concessions. This movie showcases japanese animation and animation in general. The crispness of sound, enchantment of music, and vividness of color make this film a thrill ride for the senses. The movie avoids the problem of having many things happening at once, and clearly shows what is happening even during the fast-paced battle scenes -- a sure sign of directorial experience. Praise for Hayao Miyazaki is practically neverending. If you enjoy Japanese animation, you probably already own this film. If you absolutely hate it, watch this movie anyway - I think it will change your mind. This movie is essential for any DVD library. Buy it.

If you don't like mild violence, don't watch it!, Mai 21 2003
I finally got to see Princess Mononoke b/c a friend of mine let me borrow it and let me tell you, it's awesome! The animation is great, the characters are awesome, the whole storyline is sweet! There is a good message behind it--not to mistreat nature. Of course there's blood and mild language in it, that's why it's rated PG-13, don't you think? Of all the characters, the wolves would have to be the best! Word of advice--if you want you younger kid (hey, I'm 15, not a kid!) like 7 or so, and you want them to watch a kiddie anime, may I suggest Pokemon? Maybe even Hamtaro? Hayao Miyazaki-san is a genius! He likes to emphasis blood, but he has a good messange in his creations. If you want to see other anime by him, I deffinately suggest Spirited Away (and this of course)!

Fantastic, Mai 9 2003
This was the first anime film I have seen, and I can honestly say...I AM HOOKED! The animation is amazing. But more importantly I loved the story. It was fantasy and real life put together. It wasn't a predictable movie and that is a good thing. I absolutely loved those little white forest dwellers (forgive me for not knowing there name) and their clicking. They are sooo cute and wonderfully constructed. I could watch this movie on repeat all day.

Beautifully Created, with a Message, Mai 2 2003
Par Un client
During the first few minutes begins a graphic journey of an incredible, and somewhat violent movie. My children were hooked, and I was a little disturbed. But as expressed by one of the other reviewers, this movie has a message to all, which I explained to a couple of my children who didn't understand it. It was about the mistreatment and abuse of nature. Once I understood the underlying message (when I had the time to sit through a portion of the film) I watched it again and realized what a creative and brilliant movie this was. Not for all children as it is violent.
