The mind of a child

Rating: 5/10 (1 September 2019)

This film perfectly captures all of the joy, wonder, and innocence of a child's mind. The art is beautiful, and the breathtaking scenes and Totoro's mysterious adorableness both really awaken our inner child's curiosity and awe. However, like a child would, the focus of the film doesn't fully grasp the parent's drama, which leaves the movie beautiful and giddy, but lacking serious depth.
