Jesper Brun Princess Mononoke is awesome! For a long I had wanted to watch this movie, but postponed it because of its long running time. The running time didn't affect the expirience the least! It just kept on bringing interesting and exciting creatures or spirits to the screen. The humans live separated from nature and that's the true conflict of the movie, because everything else is connected to that. Some people may call it preachy, but honestly guys, that's too low to be taken seriously. The animation and the building of the fantasy world are what makes this movie an tremendous epic! The landscapes are gorgeous and the power of nature is brought to life with breathtaking effects and animation. It kept my excitement up through the entire movie, and if you like fantastical elements and creatures taking up many gigantic battles this is a movie for that!
leavergamer Princess Mononoke was on may radar for some time before I first saw it. Hearing that it was a 'Miyazaki master piece' but not really knowing what to expect. However as I started to watch the opening of the film I could tell from the amazing musical score and the breathtaking animation that I was watching a truly captivating film. As the story progresses you get a more three dimensional look at the characters in the film looking from all points of view seeing whats everyone wants. In particular you get a good look at the main character Ashitaka(voiced by Billy Crudup) as he tries to stop a conflict between San(voiced by Claire Danes) ,a girl raised by wolves, who is helping lead the wolves and other Forrest creatures up against Lady Eboshi(voiced by Minnie Driver) the Head of a village who are gradually destroying the Forrest for the resources the land has.Compared to other films Princess Mononoke should rank among the best animated films as it have a level of grandness that could only be matched by films like The Lord of the rings. Over the years this film has also been compared with other anime films however this film has a completely different tone to most of them as you don't get a shonin vibe or a high school romance. Overall I think that This one of Miyazaki's best films and probably one of the greatest animated films ever. That's why I'm giving it a 9/10
Ahmed-ASG Don't really know where to begin , for me it was love from the first sight , the quality is just top-notch in every single way you look at it , well written story , characters with intimate depth that'll draw you weather you like it or not , the demon boar chasing Ashitaka scene never fails to amaze me , GOD i need a Yakul in my life , whichever animal it is except a smelly one :P.in short , this movie is my #1 Japanese anime movie so far & i doubt that it will be less than that.
gautam-76176 I never watch anime. But when my friend showed me this movie, I liked it. Well done Studio Ghibli
