The Secret World of Arrietty (2010)

An uncommon anime out of a common story

[10/10 · 22 February 2012]

It is the trademark of both the leading studios of animation, the Pixar Studio and Studio Ghilbi, that you just cannot hate their movies. This thing also applies on the latest release of studio Ghibli the secret world of Arriety. It is quite common in all the literatures to have something about little creatures. And the movies built on them are large at number too. So to make something out of a common material like this, is difficult even for renowned studio like Ghibli. They choose the softer path rather than a hard sophisticated path they had taken in earlier of their releases.

Now the story of the movie is about the little people we thought to be just beside us in our childhood. Wait don't think Ghibli will go for that and make a adventure about this. Rather they made the anime about a boy who is very ill and going to die very soon. But after he saw the struggle of the Arriety family he understood that to never lose hope .He understood that it is hope that keeps man alive. That is how Ghibli studio made an amazing animation. So if you are free try the film you won't regret it. The music and the animation quality alone is worth giving a try.

NB1: If this is your first film of studio Ghibli, I would say that you are very unlucky. I request you to watch at least these movies of studio Ghibli accordingly: 1.Princess Mononoke, 2.Nausicaa of the valley of the wind, 3.Spirited Away (Oscar winner of 2001) and 4.Graves of the fire flies. I am optimistic that you will like these movies very much. If you like my review please read my other ones.

NB2: Please try to watch only the Disney dubbed movies of studio Ghibli if that is not found it is better to watch it English subbed.

NB3: Try to watch the real Miyazaki movies (the Four I mentioned here and whisper of the heart) in theaters or at night in a quiet place. Believe me I have tried this and I was able to understand the movies better.

NB4: one of the main problems in Hayao Miyazaki's movies is the expectation. Here is some tips the four movies I mentioned here are real movies (I don't like to degrade them by saying they are animes) not cartoons. Howls moving castle and Lupin the third are animation movies and the rest are cartoons just like cars or toy story.

NB5: Many people argue about the fact of watching foreign movies dubbed. I won't argue with them. I will just go with Hayao Miyazaki in the point, he told 20% of the movie will be lost if you read the subtitles instead of watching the movie.

Special request: because of the kidified version of "Nausicaa of the valley of the wind" many people have rated it quite badly. So please watch the movie (newly released in 2005 by Disney) rate it according to your enjoyment and rate my review too.

Many thank for viewing.

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984)

The greatest movie ever built

[10/10 · 21 February 2012]

"Nausicaa of the valley of the wind" is about an epic story of mankind in the wastelands of polluted earth. Thousand years after the end of industrialized civilization mankind is once again in the wrath of nature as it is taking it's vengeance for the brutality it has received from the human. Although being an action packed adventure, the main story of the movie is one of the most humane stories ever told. Nausicaa, one of the most powerful characters of modern motion picture, tries to find a way to make the connection between earth and human to save mankind from extinction. I will stop here for rest of the story you have to find out yourself. I can assure you that you will not regret it. And for movie lovers it is a movie that you just cannot miss.

There are actually only three 100% real Hayao Miyazaki movies. They are 1.Nausicaa of the valley of the wind, 2.Laputa: Castle in the sky and 3.Princess Mononoke. All these films are considered as masterpieces of the history of animation. Of all the movies that Hayao Miyazaki has created "Nausicaa's" is the best. Many people will argue with me on that point because they have not seen the original uncut Disney version. If you are a people outside South America and speak in a different language than English and Disney's animations are available in your native language only then you can understand the quality of a dubbing of Disney. So please see the movie with the English dub by Disney, I am pretty much optimistic that you will surely say that "Nausicaa of the valley of the wind" is the greatest movie ever built.

Pulp Fiction (1994)

Different,but it does not make it great

[1/10 · 17 February 2012]

Sometimes after seeing a lot of good movies people want to watch something undefined and different,but it does not necessarily mean that the movie is good.When the theme song is the best part of the movie you surely can understand the quality.Sometimes ranking and charts do not show the real picture,this movie does not have a good story,a good screenplay or good dialogues but still it is in the top 10.But believe me this movie can neither give you entertainment nor any sense of understanding.Yeah i agree the movie is not boring,but it is not enjoyable either.Movies like shawshank redemption,godfather or lord of the rings,all of them has a magic-feature.Sometimes it is screenplay(Shawshank redemption) sometimes its dialogue(Godfather) sometimes it is the story (The lord of the rings) .But all of them had the important feature called continuity.I think it is a very important quality of a movie to keep it's continuity.This movie is divided into four parts which actually made the movie look like a comedy-puppet dance just with humans(Because the parts do not define one-another). The most embarrassing thing about this movie is after watching it you will think who is the fool yourself or the writer and directer.Yes this movie is different but not always Difference make something great at least in motion pictures at least.Whatever this is a must see movie for all because you can differentiate the better movies after watching it.
