If the characters were humans I'd think the film was sick and twisted and should be rated much higher than what it is, but they're talking, animated raccoons...? Childish characters and a magical theme, yet a mature storyline?
I didn't really know what to make of it. X'D
None the less, good old Hayao Miyazaki once again hasn't failed to make this film utterly unique and get his morals across to viewers; I personally went away wanting to save all the woodland creatures' habitats. :) The characters were origional and the film was very cleverly put together in the way that it's viewers could be of any age and still be entertained and learn something from it.
It isn't Miyazaki's best, I can say that much, however it's still well worth watching and I reccomend it to everyone.
