Good movie, but nothing to be surprised for...

Rating: 7/10 (8 March 2005)

This is a good movie don't get me wrong, it just seems sad how many excellent and superb Japanese anime are over shadowed by regular movies with a huge budget like this one, was a surprise to me to find Chihiro before any of the biggest classics, like Ghost in the Shell, Fist of the North Star, 3 X 3 Eyes, Porco Rosso, Jin Roh, Grave of the Fireflies, and so on.
On the good side of it, I see many people discovering that Japanese anime is not only cartoon porn, or cartoons for kids, because of this movie. But definitely I would like to see some familiar names of anime here before Chihiro.
