Excellent!

Rating: Null/10 (15 September 1999)

Definitely one of the greatest movies of all time, especially in the anime category!
I first saw this movie on video in Japan this summer with only one years worth of Japanese, a Japanese friend who knew some English, and my intuition to help me understand the plot. Obviously I don't think I got everything that was going on but nevertheless the absolutely amazing animation and deep plot with characters that seem real helped me to love this movie I can't seem to find a script online (if anyone knows of a complete one post it). Since I can't find a script it looks like I'll have to be forced to see the (no doubt) horribly translated Disney version. Of course, just seeing it on the big screen will be worth the ticket price Of the four movies by Miyazaki I've seen (Totoro, Nausicaa, Kiki, this), Mononoke Hime is by far the best. Any movie good enough to make me buy a legit video copy in Japanese for $50 is obviously a classic!
