tonari no totoro



"My Neighbour Totoro". ANOTHER MIYAZAKI MOVIE! OMG I wanted to see this ever since it came out on dvd yeah but I guess it's not really meant to be O..o anyways... moving right along... Another great (even though it's rather old) movie by Miyazaki-sensei and I love it! The totoros are just so cute XD but especially the big totoro's reaction to the rain 8D kawaii~ne

Plot outline: Sasuki, Mei and their father moved to a village that is near their mother's hospital (where she is hospitalised for god-knows-what) and whilst living in this village Mei (Sasuki's little sis) discovered a path to the Totoros or rather a path to the big huge tree that has been there for hundreds of years... so what happened is well I suppose the Totoros are the gods of the forest O..o well... that's the story really and then the adventure begins *grin*

There's really no action or no intense plot in the movie but it's a mellow sort of drama most likely a feel good movie it's one that makes me laugh and smily while at the sad parts I would be empathising with the protagonists... but overall this is a very well done movie but probably more targeted to a kids sort of audience and it has old traditional values which maybe reflects more of the Japanese culture than western one ^^

Overall a very good movie I give it THREE AND A HALF STAR (8D since when do I rate teehee)

ps. OMG Soccerroos lost =__= they so don't deserve it... this postscript is probably going to be axed after a couple of weeks
