Summary: Japanese
Review: I can't think of a single reason for not including the originalJapanese dialogue as a audio channel. Disney, get your head out ofthat paper bag filled with rubber cement that you're huffing and do the right thing- offer Japanese on the DVD, with subtitles in English!

On a side note, another good site has said that the DVD WILL feature Japanese.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I have reviewed this befoere
Review: I have reviewed this movie before so I won't go into saying how good it is. But as I read other reviews there is somethign that i must say to everyone.... THERE IS A SUBBED SIDE ON THE DVD! Amazon.com just hasn't said that.... Stop putting down this wonderful anime just becasue "the original isn't on the DVD," when it is included. The sub, however, is not available on VHS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Princese Mononoke a Breakthrought in Anime
Review: Princess Mononoke (whith I have seen in the thearters) is a breakthrought in Japenease Anime. The Story is about the jung prince Ashaka who is injerd, while saving his vilage, by a whiled God Bore who is posessed by hatrige. This whound is not a normal whound, it is hatrige it's self. To face his desetny he goes to the Land in the whest where the Bore came from and bad is. He tries to meat the forest spirit who can releav his suffering. There he meats the Wholve princess Mononoke, who fights the advancing Humans and Laidy Eboshi, who controls the ironworks and figths Nature.

It is a thriling edveture, a fight betwen Man and Nature.

Just Stuning . . .

Summary: Miyazaki's Best!
Review: I have seen almost all of Hayao Miyazaki's films, and this appears to be one of the best! I first heard about it at The Anipike, went and saw it at the theater, and bought it on DVD.The sound and picture quality are excellent! The story is very moving, and really expresses the struggle between man and the environment. I have watched this movie countless times, both in Japanese and English. I would reccomend this movie to anyone who is a Miyazaki fan <Grave of The Fireflies, Kiki's Delivery Service, My Neighbor Totoro> or to anyone who's in the mood for a great anime feature! Now go, my pretties, go! See and but the movie!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great Movie, terrible waste of DVD
Review: I can't understand how Disney isn't going to release this great movie with it's original language included as an option. One of the greatest features of a DVD is the possibility to change between languages and subtitles. They're just wasting a great DVD. Japanese animation rocks! but in japanese!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely loved...
Review: This movie has a special, significant meaning for me. Not just because it was my boyfriend's and my first date, but because I actually saw it in a theater!

I absolutely loved it... as a fan of animation (and an artist myself), I found the animation visually stunning, far surpassing anything in America. I'm almost tempted to get a DVD player just for this movie.

The soundtrack is also amazing... I enjoyed every minute of this movie, not just with the added bonus of seeing it in the theater. It is definitely worth seeing if you love animation, or if you just love good stories.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie!
Review: This has to be one of the best movies I've seen in a long time and definitely better than Disney. I'm buying it as soon as I have a DVD player and it comes out. It has beautiful animation, a great story dealing with traditional, universal themes, and good English dubbing. The only thing that would make it better is if the DVD is released with the original Japanese as well.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Monumental
Review: Staggering film about a prince who leaves his homeland to find a cure for a magically-inflicted wound, and finds himself in the midst of a war between man and nature. Violent and passionate movie that calls to mind the best of Kurosawa or even John Ford. Also more morally complex than most movies of this variety: compare the stances in this film with the embarrasing simpleminded jingoism of "Braveheart". Unignorable.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderful anime......
Review: As an avid anime watcher and manga reader, I must say that this is one of the best movies I have ever seen, if not the best. The storyline is strong, and the animation..... Even my critical family loved it.

Prince Ashitaka from a almost-cleaned-out clan kills a attacking deamon, finding that it is a boar driven from anger into a tarugami. He sets out to find a cure to the curse the boar placed on him, and stumbles on Iron Town. He learns that the mistress is good, yet evil, and that a war is raging between the Gods and the people of Iron Town. It is he, cursed as he is, to find a way to stop the fighting.

The story goes on to include characters with highly described profiles, and more complicated animation. This deserves six stars.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Princess Mononoke
Review: This remarkable film caused my husband and me to do 2 amazing things. First, we allowed our 13 year old daughter to go out to a movie with us on a school night, and second, when we found out it was only going to be released on DVD at first, we ran out to buy a DVD player and a TV that was DVD compatable! I am not going to go in to detail about the film, because it has all been said here by others. Just buy it! It is worth it.
