About this movie

Winner of the Academy Award® for Best Animated Feature, Hayao Miyazaki's wondrous fantasy adventure is a dazzling masterpiece from one of the most celebrated filmmakers in the history of animation. Chihiro's family is moving to a new house, but when they stop on the way to explore an abandoned village, her parents undergo a mysterious transformation and Chihiro is whisked into a world of fantastic spirits ruled over by the sorceress Yubaba. Put to work in a magical bathhouse for spirits and demons, Chihiro must use all her wits to survive in this strange new place, find a way to free her parents and return to the normal world. Overflowing with imaginative creatures and thrilling storytelling, Spirited Away became a worldwide smash hit, and is one of the most critically-acclaimed films of all time.

Gran pelicula. No estoy muy seguro de cómo puede "no meterse en eso" (como mencionó otro crítico). La historia salta a la vista y te atrapa con su personaje principal mimado (pero de buen corazón), la animación fantástica y el estilo absorbente del cuento de hadas oriental. El desarrollo del personaje fue estelar. Ojalá hubiera habido una película de seguimiento con el personaje principal y el dragón. Es la primera película de Studio Ghibli en Google Play. ¡No puedo esperar a que el resto se una!

The movie wasn't all amazing that people hyped it to be. Things convientally go the main characters way constantly. That's a good way to kill enjoyment, by never making it feel like the character is in any danger. The plot felt very shaky too. Yes their are morals to be learnt in this movie but you do need to pay attention to them. Plus some moments in the movie did make me thing of things that I have had experienced in life or others had told.

Don't own it yet but like alot of people before me I got nothing but positive things about Spirited Away and any movie from that master Japanese studio. Spirited Away, Pom Poko, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Princess Mononokoe and many others were some of my favorite movies growing up as a child. These make me want to learn Japanese all the more because I'd like to compare the Japanese dubs with the ones from my childhood.
