Description:
From one of the most celebrated filmmakers in the history of animated cinema comes the most acclaimed film of 2002. Hayao Miyazaki's latest triumph, filled with astonishing animation and epic adventure, is a dazzling masterpiece for the ages. It's a 'wonderfully welcoming work of art that's as funny and entertaining as it is brilliant, beautiful, and deep' (Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal). SPIRITED AWAY is a wondrous fantasy about a young girl, Chihiro, trapped in a strange new world of spirits. When her parents undergo a mysterious transformation, she must call upon the courage she never knew she had to free herself and return her family to the outside world. An unforgettable story brimming with creativity, SPIRITED AWAY will take you on a journey beyond your imagination. 'To enter the world of Hayao Miyazaki is to experience a kind of lighthearted enchantment that is unique to the world of animation' (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times). It's a fantastic tale the whole family will want to experience over and over again.

The highest grossing film in Japanese box-office history (more than $234million), Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away (Sen To ChihiroKamikakushi) is a dazzling film that reasserts the power of drawnanimation to create fantasy worlds. Like Dorothy in The Wizard of Ozand Lewis Carroll's Alice, Chihiro (voice by Daveigh Chase--Lilo in Disney'sLilo & Stitch) plunges into an alternate reality. On the way totheir new home, the petulant adolescent and her parents find what they thinkis a deserted amusement park. Her parents stuff themselves until they turninto pigs, and Chihiro discovers they're trapped in a resort for traditionalJapanese gods and spirits. An oddly familiar boy named Haku (Jason Marsden)instructs Chihiro to request a job from Yubaba (Suzanne Pleshette), thegreedy witch who rules the spa. As she works, Chihiro's untapped qualitieskeep her from being corrupted by the greed that pervades Yubaba'smini-empire. In a series of fantastic adventures, she purges a river godsuffering from human pollution, rescues the mysterious No-Face, and befriendsYubaba's kindly twin, Zeniba (Pleshette again). The resolve, bravery, and loveChihiro discovers within herself enable her to aid Haku and save her parents.The result is a moving and magical journey, told with consummate skill by oneof the masters of contemporary animation. MPAA Rated: PG ('Some scary moments') --Charles Solomon

Rating:  - Miyazaki love.
Hayao Miyazaki, obviously, is an amazing director.Joe Hisaishi's music just makes this movie jump to an astronomical level.I usually get sick of movies very quickly, but no matter how many times I watch this movie..it just takes my breath away.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Rating: - Amazing!
Spirited Away is an amazing movie. It's very touching, and a great family movie. If you like Hayao Miyazaki, you should buy this movie. It's very touching...
Rating:  - FOR PARENTS: Beautiful but not for small children
This movie is beautiful and I agree with many of the reviews. But those that say it is for young children probably do not have children. I watched this with my five year old daughter (the first hour) and she got very quiet and left the room. She ended up being very scared and upset in a very real way. She even had nightmares. It was my mistake. I should have watched it first to see. I am not saying that ALL children would be. But I would definitly say it is for more sophisticated children/older. ... Read More
Rating: - Great movie for adults and kids
This film is one of my favorites.It is a "work of art" as many have said.If I had children, I would want them to see this one (after the age of 5 or 6, I'd say), but it *is* long, and the young ones could fall asleep if you're watching it at night with them.I love the message of friendship, and how kindhearted the characters could be.Other characters were not so kind, but you later learn why they are unkind and are able to see why compassion reigns supreme.I have nothing but love for this ...

Rating: - A fantastical movie!
Spirited Away is an imaginative tale about a little girl named Chihiro who becomes trapped in the spirit world after her parents are turned into pigs for eating the spirit's food.There, she must work in a bath house for the spirits until she can think of a way to escape.
In many ways, this film is excellent.The animation is beautiful, the setting is strange and entertaining, the story is full of twists, and the characters posess alot of depth.What I love most about this movie is the depth ... Read More
