Perfectly adorable

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Ashitaka finds himself in the middle of a war between the forest gods and Tatara, a mining colony. In this quest he also meets San, the Mononoke Hime. Princess Mononoke doesn't offer anything new to the awful japanese anime history and just ends up being on the same level as all the others unfortunately. (0/10)

Aside from it being the most beautiful film i've ever seen, it also has an enourmously powerful script.

Between love, revenge, nature and humanity, Miyazaki shows a world torn between good and bad. Characters are strong and make important decisions, more than their personal values. Princess Mononoke becomes the best way to express the director's sweet desire to show that our humanity can act differently and that nature must be guided by balance.

Amazing, deserves a better score on metacritic (should be 96)
