Rating: Summary: Outstanding anime!! One of the BEST! Review: When I first heard about this anime I was interested in it and got information from other sites on the Internet. Though the sites were good they didn't give me the "must see" feeling. I saw Princess Mononoke for rent in a video store I go to and I rented it for a night thinking I would watch it once and return it the same night. Wrong. The graphics were great and the plot was awesome. I've never seen a better anime. I really hope everyone at least rents this movie. I'm going to buy it as soon as I can! I hope everyone enjoys this video as much as I did! It was great!!
Rating: Summary: The BEST anime movie ever...almost Review: I must say I was worried about this movie. I had seen Miyazaki's other movies (Porco Rosso, Nausicaa, My Neighbor Totoro) and decided that those couldn't be beaten. Then I saw this. It IS amazing. One of few anime movies with real deep, developed characters and story. I think Miyazaki outdid himself with this one. The ONLY anime movie that beats this is Totoro (if you haven't seen Totoro buy it! Trust me). Even Porco Rosso or Akira didn't compare. This is destined to be the most known anime movie ever, and certainly one of the best.
Rating: Summary: You Won't Be Disapointed! Review: I first heard about Princess Mononoke in the magazine SPIN. They gave it an excellent review and I've been dying to watch it. Finally, at my local Hollywood Video, I saw a copy of it and rented it. I was stunned and amazed on how this movie came together! Excellent plot and beautifuly done animation! Now, after seeing this, I been dying to know where I can buy a copy of my own. The plot is easy to understand: A young prince from a village is inflected with a deadly curse that will cause his body and spirit to turn evil. To do away with the curse, he sets off to find the Great Forest Spirit, the only one who can cure him. He arrives in Iron Town and meets up with Lady Eboshi (voiced by Minnie Driver) who plans on taking over the forest where the gentle spirit lives. Lady Eboshi also plans to do away with Princess Mononoke (voiced by Claire Danes), a young girl raised by the wolves of the forest. A classic battle between man and nature will see the outlook on who will rule the land, viewers will love the dialoge spoken by well-known American actors such as Minnie Driver, Claire Danes, Gillian Anderson, Billy-Bob Thortan, and more. What else can I say, this is one movie you won't be disapointed in.
Rating: Summary: Down with Macro Vision! Review: This is the best anime movie I've ever seen, but DO NOT get the VHS! The tape has Macro Vision. It can mess up the screen. The whole show, the top (and sometimes bottom) inch or so of the screen will be freaking out and it CAN'T be fixed with tracking. You might also hear a lot of static. It isn't as bad on the better quality VCRs, but this happens on all of them. Get the DVD! It has language choices and subtitles, and(right now) is like $80 cheaper!
Rating: Summary: The Best of The Best Review: My god, I don't even know where to begin when describing this movie. Let me add my recommendation to the hundred others already here. This movie is WONDERFUL, no matter who you are or what age you're at (with the exception of very young children). This movie realizes the full potential of animation, plot, character, and atmosphere. Tho' the dub isn't perfect (I recommend getting the DVD with the subtitles instead), it's much better than an average dub and cannot detract from the perfection of this movie. Don't ask if you should see this movie -- just *see* it. If you do, you will understand why so many people are awed by it.
Rating: Summary: What a Masterpiece! Review: Most animation movies portray extreme courage or self power. Very rarely we see a movie about balance, and this one is about our own backyard - Nature. It's a New Age type movie with a very powerful meaning.
Rating: Summary: gotta see this one! Review: i've been waiting to see this moive for a long time, and when i saw it, it didn't let me down. this movie has everything: violence, gore, and one scene that alone deserves an acadamy award. this movie has the perfect blend of magic, might, love, and scenes that truly test the courage of the protagonist. i highly recommend this to everyone.
Rating: Summary: Mononoke should be a Queen, not a Princess. . . Review: What a great film this is! I loved every minute of it. A great drama and nail-biting action: what is not to love? The animation is certainly on par with AKIRA (actually, I would have to say that the animation is BETTER) and the story line is the best I have ever experienced for an anime. Tremendous. If you have not seen this movie and you consider yourself an anime fan, you are wrong. THIS IS A MUST SEE! A+++++fin
Rating: Summary: Princess Mononoke, anime done the right way! Review: This movie is definitely one of the best anime movies I have ever seen. It has amazing visuals including stylistic, lush backgrounds and well drawn characters and animals. The plot is interesting and exciting while still managing to have an underlying theme about the preservation of nature. I highly recommend this movie to fans of anime.
Rating: Summary: A Gripping Epic Review: Princess Mononoke is the final, full-length animation from master Hayao Miyazaki, and I believe it is his best work. Drawing you into its fabulous plot, full of excitement and mystery, the strong emotions evoked are balanced out with its outstanding music. You can watch Princess Mononoke over and over again, and discover new depth each time.... whether it be in the story itself, or the amount of work that has gone into it. A story that will stay with you forever!
