One of my favourite animated films...

Rating: 10/10 (8 June 2012)

Spirited Away is a special film because it tells the story in a unique way, through camera angles, facial expression and the relation of the environment to the story. The characters make the film one of my favourites. They are all likable and not one disappointed me. No face was my favourite character simply because its a blank figure, emotionless and faceless, until someone approaches it and it takes the characters trait e.g.Chihiro shows kindness and No face becomes kind. Every few minutes, a surprise is round every corner and something is added to the story every so often, making it more adventurous. Haku seems to be the thing that drives Chihiro to save her parents. The artwork is very unique. My favourites were Yubaba's baby, the paper birds, No face and the Radish spirit. The setting is somewhat surreal and unique. Who would of thought to have a film based around spirits and monsters cleaning others in a grand bath house? Everything about this masterpiece makes it more adventurous, magical and simply amazing.
10/10
