The New Form for Children's Films
A children's movie with pluralistic moral lessons? An animated film with the maturity to entrance adults and kids alike for almost two-and-a-half hours? Drawings that rival the finest in contemporary comic books and manga? In a word, yes, and in two words: "Spirited Away." The story opens with Chihiro, a 10-year-old girl (voiced by "Lilo and Stitch's" Daveigh Chase),...

Spirited to Japanese Culture
I wanted to give this movie 100000 stars but I know that many people only read the bad reviews (myself Included) I had to give it one star just so you might read this film review... The reason most people dislik the film is that they are too Americanized (or Westernized). There are so many aspects of Japanese culture in the film that many "outsiders" just don't...

The New Form for Children's Films, Nov. 19 2002
A children's movie with pluralistic moral lessons? An animated film with the maturity to entrance adults and kids alike for almost two-and-a-half hours? Drawings that rival the finest in contemporary comic books and manga? In a word, yes, and in two words: "Spirited Away."The story opens with Chihiro, a 10-year-old girl (voiced by "Lilo and Stitch's" Daveigh Chase), and her family moving to a new city. Chihiro is appropriately upset at losing her friends, and when a wrong turn takes her family into what appears to be an abandoned amusement park, she wanders off on her own to sulk. Her parents find a food booth and begin chowing down, but when night falls and strange things start to happen, Chihiro realizes it isn't an amusement park but a resort for the spirit world - and her parents have magically turned into pigs. Sacrificing her name (literally) to the enigmatic ruler of a large bathhouse, the crone Yubaba, and aided by a strange boy named Haku, Chihiro (now called Sen) tries to adjust to life in the spirit world while attempting to rescue her parents. Like Miyazaki's other films ("Princess Mononoke," "Kiki's Delivery Service"), "Spirited" takes a non-condescending approach to children's filmmaking. Good and evil are not presented as polar opposites, but they can often be found in the same person. Yubaba, the "villain," isn't bad per se, and Haku isn't necessarily a paragon of good intentions. Chihiro herself is ambiguous, although good of heart and obviously trying to do the right thing. Her character develops more than any other in the film, and her transformation from a spoiled kid to a responsible young adult is both realistic and heartening. The backdrop of Japanese mythology and the Shinto/Buddhist spirit world is equally compelling, and although most of it will be strange to American audiences, the cultural barriers aren't difficult to overcome - as all timeless legends are. When everyone is complaining about Hollywood's lack of ethics and/or making children's films that "talk down" to the kids, there should be more "Spirited Aways." It's unfortunate that a film like "The Iron Giant," similar in style if not in substance, was a relative flop at the box office three years ago; both it and "Spirited" belong in any parents' video library, and "Aladdin IV: Another Moneymaker" can gather dust on the warehouse shelves. This, friends, is what animated filmmaking should be about. Final Grade: A

Movie for all ages!, Avril 7 2003
I don't quite understand or agree a few user's reviews of this movie. I saw it with my 6 year old daughter, who I never take to anything rated stronger than PG. I think this movie teaches kids such wonderful lessons in humanity, and you need to understand the meaning behind the movie yourself before you can judge it. It might be a little confusing to the lesser educated? My daughter loved it, and we used it as an important lesson about morals. You will never see her eat food left sitting on a counter!! My husband and I also loved the movie. Don't be afraid to let your kids see this movie, it's certainly better than the .... afternoon cartoons they watch on t.v. Although I don't care for anime, this was a REALLY good movie, we have already pre-ordered it for dvd. Put the popcorn in the microwave sit down with the family and enjoy! If they have any nightmares you can blame me, but frankly my daughter has more nightmares after watching teletubbies! So do I!!

undescribable and unique, Fév 23 2003
This movie is different. That is the main thing an average American must remember when going to see it. It is not a "happy, simple, plotline with song and dance" for children. This is Ghibli, not Disney folks. Spirited Away reminds me of a Fairy Tale or a Fable. The kind of thing you would read about in a modern Brothers Grimm collection. There are weird, sometimes creepy, sometimes cute, always strange and different creatures to be beheld here and not everyone will appreciate that. The plot follows 10-year-old Chihiro who is moving away to a new city and has a bit of a problem with being self-centered. When her parents stumble on an abandoned amusement-park and go exploring they come across some fresh food. Thinking the place might still be in business they sit down to eat and decide to pay later. The food ends up turning them into pigs and from there the plot spirals into a series of strange events that sometimes don't quite make sense, but are fun to watch anyways. This movie holds quite a few themes and contains a lot of symbolism. It is rather complex, which is becoming rare for a PG movie. At times, it may seem a little rushed or random and many people may think Mr. Miyazaki is not quite all the way there or is abusing certain substances. These people, are closed-minded however and should shut-up and mind their own beeswax. This movie requires a selected taste and artistic understanding. If fantasy and fairy-tales aren't your thing, ignore, leave it alone by all means. If you are in the mood for something new and creative, if you want your kids to see something more than brainwashed cartoons, if you want to see beautiful animation, see this movie! It may take some time before you appreciate it, and you may have to expand what you think about cartoons or entertainment, but I think that expanding is a good thing. This is certainly not everybody's movie, but that's what makes it great. After all, do you prefer "one size fits all" or something tailored to be something specific. Of course, it may not be what you usually wear, but it wouldn't hurt to try it on for size. Regarding children, I have heard all manner of things from "kids fled screaming in terror" to "they fell in love with it and want to see it again and again and again and..." When I saw the movie some kids there stayed for the whole thing, I think one person walked out. So let's be honest, this movie is not suitable for some children. There is a bleeding dragon, there are scary creatures, there are weird enchantresses with big heads and giant babies. It is weird and it can be scary. On the same note some kids might be enthralled with this movie. The giant baby could be found hilarious, the dragon (when not bleeding) magical, the creatures (or "spirits rather") curious and fun. It depends on the age and on the child. This is not Pokemon nor is it Princess Mononoke. This is very diffirent from both of those. Know your kids before letting them see it, see the movie before letting them see it. Parental Guidance is suggested folks, adhere to this.

Spirited to Japanese Culture, Sep 1 2003
I wanted to give this movie 100000 stars but I know that many people only read the bad reviews (myself Included) I had to give it one star just so you might read this film review... The reason most people dislik the film is that they are too Americanized (or Westernized). There are so many aspects of Japanese culture in the film that many "outsiders" just don't understand. To say that the story line is bizarre is just like saying I don't get Don Quixote. But you'd never bad-mouth Don Quixote. Maybe you should get off your high horse and take a Japanese Culture class and watch the movie again. It is a magical Movie. I have not been this enthrawled in years. Its not my favorite movie (Spirited Away is my 8th favorite) But its worth every penny and worth the praise it got. If you don't understand a movie then don't condemm it. And lastly, in responce to the comments about this movie being too scary for children, my cousins (6 and 10 girls and 5 and 8 Boys) all loved this film and were not scared. They loved the raddish God (so did I) and they thought that the story was very good. (they understood most but not all of it) This film takes me too a place I yearn to go and brings be home with the joy and hopefullness that are lacking in todays world... thank you Miyzazki

6 stars, Juil 7 2004
Par Un client
This movie feels like a dream. There are not many works of art that can do this, but with this one I distinctively got the feeling that watching this film was the same as a really sweet dream. I love it.

Spirited Away, Juil 2 2004
I ended up renting the movie from a movie store, don't ask me why... I didn't really expect much... I mean, I was thirteen years old, and I didn't think that anyone could make cartoons with any sort plot or captivating qualities. You watch Disney stuff too much, and it does that to you...But THIS... THIS is NOT a cartoon. It showed more vision than any movie I'd ever seen. The characters had LAYERS, the setting was superb. It seriously made you think you were in a dream... or maybe a nightmare. The PG rating really shouldn't be on this movie, because some of the characters would be terrifying for little kids. It's totally unlike anything you've ever seen... the plot is completely original. I mean, you can't tell me that you'd seen a movie before about a little girl going to work in a bathhouse for spirits. This is on my top five for movies... acutally- scratch that. I think it might be the best movie I've ever seen.

Simply perfection, Oct. 5 2009
I was so saddened by the number of one star reviews on Amazon. As somebody who has seen every Miyazaki and whose walls are covered in animation cels, posters and is essentially a collector and expert on animation, this film is absolutely splendid.
For anyone with more than six brain cells (the criticism that there is no plot or that it is hard to understand is absurd) this is a lovely tale of a girl caught up in the spirit world and trying to rescue her parents.
The English version is dubbed to perfection with Chihiro being voiced by the talented Daveigh Chase, the animation is colourful and deep.
Simply put, like Wall-E, if you don't love this movie you probably don't have a soul.

Work of art for all ages, Aoû 26 2009
A couple of years ago, I had rented this at the local library and fell in love. I kept returning every year to borrow it because I would get sudden obsessions with seeing it again and even once considered stealing it from the library (but then found out it would cost ahellofalot), and it was vhs anyways. So I then found it in a video store and it was on sale for 21.99$ (originally 36$) and so I had to buy it! Now I have come to this site and found it for 18.99 and I find that so low it's wonderful! Everyone should see this movie, it created my obsession with buying all of Miyazaki's movies (so far howl's moving castle, nausicaa, my neighbor totoro and this one).
This movie really brings your mind into a different place and keeps you there for the whole movie. I can't say i've ever been as entranced by a movie as I have with this one and some of his others.

Amazing!, Sep 22 2008
I will keep this short and sweet. This is a fantastic movie. So good that I wish there was a sequel, (even though we all know that that would never happen) because this movie was so special. I loved it. It's just one of those movies that makes you happy every time you watch it. Girls and guys alike will thoroughly enjoy it. I am generally very easy to please when it comes to movies, but the Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli movies are sure to please any movie critics out there. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes anime, or just likes to have fun.

Pure Imagination, Aoû 24 2007
I can watch this movie over and over again and find something new every time. The story is pure imagination, the animation is phenomenal, and the whole movie takes you away to another place. An all time classic.
