A captivating post appocalyptic story from around the Mad Max era. It does seem a little long, and younger kids might get restless watching, but with the utterly stunning, bedazzling visuals and sensitive character interaction it makes for a beautiful and moving animated experience like you would only expect with master Miyazaki. If that is a bit gushy fanboy sounding well ok, I can live with that... read more

This is an amazing film. All of Miyazaki's trademarks can be found in this film. His obsession with flying, humanity fighting each other but eventually blossoming throughout times of war and uncertainty, a strong female protagonist, beautiful locations and enchanting forests, it's all there to see. I always think his films like this might be too much for children to watch, but it certainly makes t... read more

Yeah well the phrase ‘being eaten alive by insects’ takes on a whole new meaning here. Made in 1984 this film is set 1 000 years into the future after our planet has been poisoned and made toxic by humans. The very spunky Princess Nausicaä leads the battle front on about three angles at any one time, so things can get intertwined and complicated, but don’t be put off. I love the way enemie... read more

" Miyazaki's follow up to his Lupin installment is a much more serious-minded affair, though that's not to say the movie is without its points of levity. The film is fable-like in some ways, and much of it trades on environmental consciousness and eco-sentiment. I don't mean to make this sound like a negative attribute-- it's not. And certainly there is a love and a poetry and a level of thoughtfulness to it all that really gives the film its soul. One the things that strikes me about Miyazaki"

20 Overrated Movies (20 movies items)

"Why it's Overrated: #223 on IMDB's Top 250. 8.1 on IMDB. What I think: Nausicaa was so mediocre that it's bad. It's funny that the only two Ghibli films I've watched with dubs, I didn't like. Alison Lohman was so terrible, I just couldn't get past it. There are some cool scenes, it obviously looks wonderful, I just think it's quite overrated."

What 10 Ghibli films would be like as games (10 movies items)

" What’s the film about? Humanity is barely hanging on in a post-apocalyptic world, where survivors are caught in a perpetual war over Earth’s remaining resources. The adventurous Nausicaa strives to live in peace with the people and beasts that fill this new civilization, and she’ll do anything to protect their lives. What would the game be like? Nausicaa’s adventures--like chasing giant bugs on her jet hang glider--are fantastical enough for a game, but they’re also grounded in very"
