Spirited Away

Rating: 7/10 (14 June 2010)

Spirited Away is one of my best movie that I saw. It was made in 2001 in Japan. It is called Sen to chihiro no kamikakushi in Japanese.This movie was written by Hayao Miyazaki who is one of the famous writer in Japan, but recently he is known all over the world. His studio Ghibli warms people's heart very much.
The main character in this movie is Chihiro. The story begins in the car. Chihiro is moving to the new house with her parents. On the way to the new house, there was a traffic jam so her father plan to shortcut between the forest. Then there was a tunnel. They get off the car and pass the tunnel, next there was a long path so they pass it again. After that, there were some opening-restaurants. Chihiro's parents were hungry so they start to eat, but she didn't eat. She roam around and noticed that something is strange in that place because faceless spirits are walking around as night falls. She suddenly go back to her parents place but it was late. Her parents changed to pigs. She run to the path and cried. Then a boy named Haku found her. Haku promise her to help her. He suggest to go to the strange big building to work. That building is a bathhouse for Japan's spirits and gods. Everything were strange there to Chihiro but she keeps searching the mysterious why her parents changed and how can she help them. Do you think she can find the way home....?
This movie is a kind of family, fantasy and adventure story. It tells us how valuable is to help your important person. If you like a heart warming movie I really recommend you to watch it. Well...it's a little childish movie so maybe it sometimes make you boring. If you watched this in a different language instead of Japanese, I want you to watch it again in subtittled because you can feel more reality! You must watch it once.
