Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best animation film ever
Review: If you think "Spirited Away" or "Princess Monoke" is good,
you should see this one too,
You'll see that "Totoro" is much much better than any other animation films

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Blame Fox, Not Disney
Review: Why does everyone keep knocking Disney for the poor quality of this DVD when Fox (not Disney) has the U.S. rights to the Totoro? You should be *grateful* to Disney for bringing so many wonderful Studio Ghibli films to the U.S. -- and they've done an absolutely wonderful job with Kiki and Spirited Away, etc. (and will, I imagine, continue to do so with future releases of this sort).

Totoro is a terrific movie, but a terrible DVD. If you don't like that, write to the people at Fox. And stop beating up on Disney.

I'd love to see a special edition of Totoro with Japanese language track, letterbox, etc., but it's not going to happen if fans keep grumbling at Disney -- who has nothing to do with this current version.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for toddlers, too!
Review: I've shared several animated films for "children" with my nearly 3 yo daughter and many of them have scared her (i.e., the grasshopper in Bugs Life). This charming film has some minorly frightening moments near the beginning but the fright is quickly dispelled and, in fact, the movie shows children how to handle their fears. My daughter really enjoys this very sweet, non-Disney movie.

Please note that Totoro and Kiki's Delivery Service are excellent for little ones - filled with magic and wonder and incredibly beautiful illustrations. Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away are not suitable for younger children - too scary.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Entertaining Story
Review: I received this item, which I ordered off of this site, yesterday and watched it right away. I was pleasantly surprised because I did not like Spirited Away very much. While the animation in this film is nowhere near the quality of that of Spirited Away, the story is simpler and in my opinion, more enjoyable.

This movie is aimed more at children than Spirited Away, making it easier for people who know little about Japanese culture to understand.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Miyazaki is a bona fide visionary...
Review: I thoroughly enjoy this movie. Sure, the DVD itself had pretty much nothing on it, excluding the film, of course. Eh, what are you gonna do? I was hoping for some special features. Cripes, I'm spoiled. Anyway, that Miyazaki never let's me down. My Neighbor Totoro is so inventive and inspiring with lots of detail and exquisite animation. (Just like all of his other work.)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I love this one
Review: I have grown to love the subtleties found in Miyazaki's movies. This is a simple story in one respect, yet there is a continued, deeper meaning as I re-watch it. Some children may actually get bored with this one, but I never tire of it. Now, if Fox could have only released this in widescreen...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "My NeighborTotoro", what a great movie!
Review: I'v watched this so much and I think it's wonderful. It's a movie for the whole family. Although it's rated "G", older children and parents will enjoy it too.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A Butchered Version
Review: The movie wasn't meant for 4:3. If you want to buy a[n inexpensive] DVD for your kids, and if you only have a 4:3 analog TV set, this US region 1 release is absolutely fine. (The English dub is excellent.) Otherwise, stay away from it. Anamorphic widescreen versions, with English dub and/or sub, are available in other regions.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Funny Movie for All Ages
Review: Totoro has got to be my favorite "family" movie to watch. Even though i am an adult now, and i watched the movie frequently when i was a child, i still love watching the movie when ever i get the chance of free time. Its a great movie and i highly recommend it to kids and adults of all ages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: cute
