My respect for Miyazaki and studio Ghibli increases with each movie I watch, like wow. This is literally visual therapy now lol they never miss with the nature scenes. Not much plot but I loved it nevertheless.

This looks beautiful, as all Ghibli films do, but the plot felt really weird. A lot of things are brought up, but many of them are left unanswered.

Alright I know this is a children's movie and all that but wtf was that honestly?

>Sophie got accustomed to being a grandma way too fucking fast, there's no process to grief and then acceptance and all that? nothing?
>She felt no hostility towards the witch that cursed her. Because of that, there's no need for forgiveness or anything of the sort. Witch lost her powers and turned really really old, Sophie takes care of her like it's the most common thing to do for someone who ruined your life. Common sense thrown out the window for the sake of feel-good
>Sophie sounds like a grandma even when she's on her younger form. They didn't have budget to hire two voice actors?
>Sophie and Howl's romance is rushed. It's shallow. All of a sudden they both decided they're in love. Again, there's no process.
>Suliman all of a sudden decided to end the war? Just cause she's seen a "happy end"? like what? what about the politics of it? Surely there's a good reason why there was a war in the first place but we don't need to know that do we

Whatever, I'd give it a generous 6 cause of the OSTs. I feel like if they made this into a series, it would've been way better.

Nuance, emotional maturity and character storytelling take centre stage in a rapid paced turismo of breaking down adulthood with seemingly odd, nonsensical story beats woven together by cinema's greatest pastures and a second rate engineering degree.

So yeah, art.
