"Come out, come out, wherever you are!

Over the years, Miyazaki and Isao Takahata's Studio Ghibli has been responsible for countless animated masterpieces. From the earlier Grave of the Fireflies to the more recent Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke, Studio Ghibli has persistently bestowed aud... read more

Definitely one for a younger audience

Whereas other Ghibli films are more suitable for all ages, I felt this film was far more accessible for younger people. There wasn't much to engage the older viewer.

Set in a picturesque town deep in the countryside, this fantastical story involves two girls who befriend Totoro, a lazy tree-dwelling creature who provides them with all the escapism they need after having to come to ... read more

" So far this is my pure favorite of all the Studio Ghibli films I've watched over the last few months. And it is damn high on the list of my favorite childrens' movie of all time. This movie is absolutely adorable. I wouldn't change a thing."

"14.4.2013, Elokuvateatteri Studio (rewatch, ****½ - ****) Esittivät suomidubatun version, mutta näytös oli ilmainen joten en valita. Henkeäsalpaavan kaunista animointia ja aivan upeaa lapsuusmaisemien kuvausta edelleen. Joe Hisaishi."

"Maybe a little light on plot to sustain for the full running time, but a skillfully made film that's beautiful to look at, pretty adorable, and surprisingly mature. Never talks down to children and, in fact, the stakes get quite real, and I'd be lying if I said it didn't get a tad bit dusty a few times. It really does capture a real feeling of what it is to be a child while incorporating some mature themes that never seem gratuitous or glossed over. It feels they exist in the way they would for "

"Hayao Miyazaki's best and most lovable work is a huge and fluffy magical creature who loves sleeping and the sound of falling raindrops. He befriends two girls discovering the charms of country living, and gives us a tale of growing up and friendship, while making us long for those innocent days."
