Movie Favorite

"Well I guess my first one has to be Withnail and I, the 1987 Bruce Robinson classic. You know, the plot is one that would get you laughed out of any Hollywood studio: Two unemployed actors go on a holiday, drinking, to one of their uncle’s cottages for the weekend; but it’s one of the most deeply rich, brilliant, tragicomic tales of male friendship. I actually remember seeing it when I was a kid, and walking out of the theater in London — and by the way, it did not do well at the time it was released; it was a tiny little film — but I remember thinking that I wanted to become a filmmaker after that."

Amazing story

Studio Ghibli creates an amazing film

Animation can be a very hit or miss genre of film. The Red Turtle is very much a hit. This film deals with multiple themes of friendship, loneliness, life and death just to name a few. The style of this film, created by Studio Ghibli, is a beautiful artistic piece that is each frame of this movie. With very little dialogue, this movie is all about show and don't tell. if you are a fan at all of artistic films, then this is the one for you.

Bonkers

Let's be honest, a Studio Ghibli film is never going to bad and is most usually going to be a little bit weird and wonderful. Well Ponyo is about as wacky and bonkers as you can get for a storyline, and you spend most of this film wondering what on earth you're watching. Which isn't a bad thing, it's just a bit surreal.

The animation side is wonderful as always and it's a heartwarming story, albeit a bit crazy. I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite Studio Ghibli films, but its still a fun family entertaining animation.

Studio Ghibli remains the most important studio in the history of anime. Spirited Away is one of, if not, my favorite anime of all time.

What sets it apart is the execution of the story telling. Two thirds of the movie takes place during mundane tasks like eating and cleaning. Something so simple is surprisingly remarkably refreshing.

I don't want to go into the meanings that can be interpreted within the film. I don't want to spoil anything to prevent anyone from drawing their own conclusions, but please see this movie. You will wonder why it took so long to do so.
