Summary: Heart Touching
Review: This movie just can't be described in words, but I'll try. Princess Mononoke may sound like a funny name but its story is far from funny. it has to be the most amazing thing I have ever watched. It basically had no GOOD and no EVIL because of peoples different points of view. If you are planning on this movie being something for the kids cause the word "Princess" is in it think again (I mean just look at the cover, come on.) This movie has HIGH QUALITY animation and a good story line that will keep you spellbound. It has some swear words and quite a bit of violence. but if you love animes and are use to seeing violence in them YOU HAVE TO GET THIS ANIME.! It shows love, greed, power, some good fight scenes, peoples different points of view on thing.

Summary: A great anime, an average DVD
Review: Please do not get carried away by the "Star Wars" reference on the box. This is NO STAR WARS. To the contrary is a more passive but epic masterpiece.The Japanese track was a great adition, you will notice how sub-par are the english voice-actors(even the Disney caliber ones) when compared to the original voices. But with that aside, this is still one of the best english dubbing efforts of all time! Great cast for a great anime classic! But the Dvd lacks a solid documentary about the process of uncovering this gem! WHy the Disney animators got interested in it? Why this movie took so long to get a theatrical release on the states? All this questions and more are left unanswered. But I guess I might be asking for much! Disney is not a great fan of the DVD format as a "learning tool." (They tend to used as a marketing ploy) In the end, the movie makes up for it and the Japanese track we fans pushed Disney to include, is a great satisfaction!

Summary: One of the most incredible films I have ever seen.
Review: And I refer to this as a "film" and not simply "anime" or "a cartoon" because it is much more than that. A breathtakingly surreal experience, this movie must be seen by every man, woman and child on the planet. I can't think of enough adjectives to describe this masterpiece. Buy it NOW! This film just may change the way you think and feel about life, nature, and the planet we live on.

Summary: Epic? I think not.
Review: When I first heard about this movie I was very interested in seeing it. Namely because everyone was telling me how epic it was. Well I consider myself a huge anime fan so I wanted to check it out. What I found was however was a movie riddled with enladen old messages like "women's rights" and "peace making skills". This DVD might have been made in Japan, but its messages are fully American-which makes it absolutely boring.

Summary: Great fantasy. Innovative and beautiful!
Review: Damn I love this anime. It's different from other fantasy anime, mostly because its a strane time. No ninjas, no dwarfes and no sorcerers, just a fantastic medievel feeling, a time where iron and gunpowder start to rule the struggle for power. The theme, man vs. nature, is very well don and the relation between the hero and the girl adopted by nature is tense all the way. Defenitly the best fantasy I seen, but I canät be compared to more tolkien-inspired animes like 'record of lodoss war'. I liked the subbed version though, the expressions in the japanese language is very hard to convert. Anyway, a great buy!

Summary: Wonderful & addictive
Review: The first time I watched the movie Princess Mononoke I sat there with my mouth open. If there is a movie you want, get Princess Mononoke because it is great. Everything about it is wonderful, from the plot to the animation to the characters. It is my favorite movie, and no matter how many times you watch it, it is exciting. I would recommend this to people over 8, because there is some bad language and violence in it. But other than that, it is the best movie EVER. Buy it and enjoy!

Summary: Anime just isn't for everyone, I guess
Review: After reading the numerous reviews raving about this being one of the greatest movies ever, I decided to give this movie a shot even though what little I've seen of anime in the past never really appealed to me. After all, I love big, epic films, and I am also a fan of other types of animation. Even so, I couldn't help but be very disappointed with this movie. Tree-hugger politics aside, the plot was not only absurd but also inconsistent with itself. The characters had no depth at all to them. The animation was flat and dull looking. Overall, I felt like it was a waste of my time. If this is the best of anime, then I can only conclude that anime is not for me. Given how much other people seem to love this film, I'd have to say that if you're an anime fan you'll probably like it. But if you are NOT an anime fan, this movie probably won't change your mind.

Summary: The opposite of lacking.
Review: This is a stunning animation that managed to combine the essential components of a classic hit in a captivating way. It deals with many issues that rather than interfere with the overall plot or are simply be integrated with it, Princess Monoke's many issues, if anything, amplify the central plot. I was truly surprised by the independence that it shows from any other animated film that I have seen, which is a rather high number, and I think that if or when you see this movie you will be moved and captivated beyond your expectations. I definitely recommend this movie for "every one" of all ages (with a warning of few adult phrases).

Summary: Best of Japanese animation
Review: I am NOT a fan of Japanese animation. Sure, the pictures look great, but can ANYONE truly explain such "immortal works" as AKIRA and GHOST IN THE SHELL? These films seem to be extensions of comic books, and, while flashing beautiful animation, completely avoid the hassle of telling a story. That said, PRINCESS MONONOKE is NOT your typical Japanese animation. This film tells a simple fairy tale, in a not-so-simple manner. With excellent action, beautiful renderings, and a complexity of character that few American animations have ever approached, MONONOKE assaults the eyes and mind of the viewer. Even the English dubbings don't get in the way, although I do recommend watching both the English dubs AND the Japanese just to experience the differences. As much as I have wanted to love this genre, I have never found anything nearly so good as PRINCESS MONONOKE. It is a freakishly well-done exception to the norm, and is, in fact, one of my favorite films. Even if you hate the stuff, see this film.
