Comments: Basic synopsis follows the game pretty closely. I was mostly attracted to it for the cute pokemon and the battles, but it has good themes, and would be perfect for younger kids. Plus, the music is catchy and the characters, while they can be annoying, all have redeeming values. It's still a bit cheesy, but it's good for pretty much all ages

Princess Mononoke


Inflicted with a deadly curse, a young warrior named Ashitaka (Billy Crudup-Without Limits) sets out to the forests of the west in search of the cure that will save his life. Once there, he becomes inextricably entangled in a bitter battle that matches Lady Eboshi (Driver) and a proud clan of humans against the forest's animal gods... who are led by the brave Princess Mononoke (Danes), a young woman raised by wolves!

Comments: First, let me proclaim my love of Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli films. Ok. Princess Mononoke is an awesome movie, with wonderful characters, and lots of depth. Miyazaki seems to bring his story to life, and it will hauntingly stay in your mind well after you watch it. It has many messages to think about, but it also tells a story. The characters are unique and realistic (for the most part), and his creatures are almost believably real. This movie is recommended for everyone, whether you're a fan of animation or just a movie buff. See it. That's an order.
