It’s great visually,but the story a bit slow.
Miyazaki’s movie power died with Princess Mononoke (Mononoke-hime). I wish for the days of Laputa, Nausicca, or any of his oldies. Just not Graveyard of the Fireflies - that movie is pure emotional torture.
I couldn’t watch Howl’s, Ponyo, or any of his new stuff. He’s still bitter that his son stole Earthsea.
I am of the age where, when I saw the preview, my first thought was “Where’s Chim Chim and Spritle?”
I think you mean Pixar. Yes. Wonderful. My favorites are Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle. Princess is a bit too intense for me but maybe that’s because my partner in watching the movies is my granddaughter. She’s 11 now but we started watching these movies when she was two. I also like Ponyo, especially the scenes where the world and its oceans returns to the earlier time period I can’t remember. Ponyo is also sort of a dig at the environmentalist wackos.
Looks like the same folks who did Howl’s Moving Castle. Even my wife likes that one.
One of my favorites was “Only Yesterday”. Very emotional ending...
