Summary: Shades of Grey
Review: The movie is beautiful, with wonderful scenery. The story is not for little kids, although my five year old loves it. Unlike the more normal fare that kids are exposed to, in this movie there are no bad guys or (all) good guys. All of the characters have reasons for what they do, and all show signs of honor and courage. The fact that they are in conflict makes the story much more interesting.

Watch the movie. Just because it's animated doesn't mean it's for kids.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Princess Mononoke- Five Stars!
Review: This is a stunning masterpiece that never got the recognition here (in the US) that it deserved. With the depth of Shakespeare, Yoji Matsuda has given us a story that puts shades of gray on Good and Evil.
No one character can be labelled all good or all evil, as they decide how their actions will affect the outcome of their world. The world of Nature is pitted against the world of Man, and the ultimate battle ensues!
Gorgeous forests and landscapes are the setting as the prince leaves his own village in search of a cure. The music carries you away to believe in the story, set in medieval Japan.
Children may enjoy the movie, but it was written for the enjoyment of adults; a rarity in animated movies. At 2 hrs.15 min.long, you still want it to continue!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Movie!! A Must for all fans!
Review: This anime was a excellently drawn film, but I agree with other reviewers that the star voices didn't add but subtracted to the film. Gillian Anderson's voice overs didn't work for me at all. I enjoy the origianl japanese with subtiltles better.
Also this movie is over 2 hours long and does drag in some spots, but that doesn't affect your enjoyablity of this film.
My overall rating and recommendation is get this movie you won't be disappointed!...

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: A must
Review: This has to be one of the best anime films ever made. The subtleties of this film are truely amazing. At first you might find the film a little light especially if your a fan of Ninja Scroll type violence but the action in this movie is far more different then just plain blood and guts, In this film each act of violence has a meaning and effect, like the real world.
This is a mystical story of wonderment and I would recommend it to anyone, not just anime fans.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: AN AMAZING MASTERPIECE THAT NO ANIME FAN SHOULD MISS!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent flick!
Review: An anime must-see... As an on-and-off anime watcher, I found this to be the one movie that's got me waiting for the next great anime movie. The animation and often comical characters of Toki, Koroku, and others make it easy for a young kid to watch; thematic elements dealing with the conflict between man and nature allow an older audience to enjoy. The scenery is beautifully done, but I suggest that, if you get this DVD, to watch it in Japanese with English subtitles, and even then you don't get the full beauty of the language used. Some of the subtitles are slightly inaccurate (as far as my limited Japanese language skills can tell), but even if you watch it in English it is still a wonderful film.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Best Movie Ever
Review: I just wanted to say real quick that this is the best anime I have ever seen. I have watched many great animes including: ghost in the shell, macross plus, sin and others and this is by far my favorite. It has an incredible story line and the voice acting is incredible. I watched this movie in excess of 12 times the first time I rented it and then bought it and continue to watch it almost every weekend. Just thought I would let everyone know of this movies gret storyline and acting. If you are even thinking about it, buy it.
