Worth the Watch

Rating: 9/10 (3 January 2014)

Spirited Away was a breath taking adventure that was magical to watch. I recommend this to any one who is looking for a heart warming story or enjoys Hayao Miyazaki's films. The art style was beautiful making it a masterpiece. This is one of my favorite movies so I am hyping it up but no doubt it has good writing and great character development that is enjoyable to watch. I do admit the main character could get on my nerves but she is relate-able. Also the score was one of the aesthetics of this film that truly made it stand out. The story itself is original or at least something I had not seen before so it's interesting, keeping you're attention the whole time. The only downfall to spirited away is it target audience is not for everyone. I watched it as a kid and still enjoy it as a young adult but my father who is much older doesn't get it. I don't think it would be well received by people who don't know of Hayao Miyazaki's past film, but if you are interested it is a good movie to start with for Miyazaki's films. Spirited Away is something that can be watched time and time again and never gets old, definitely a film worth noting and good to add to a watch list.
