What do you mean "so what?", that's the point of the movie?
#MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO GOOGLE DRIVE MOVIE#
The movie piles on a lot and a lot of scenes together for artistic value and to continuously display how innocent a child is. Why? Because it is mostly comprised of the children fucking around and showing off how well designed everything is, as well as put focus on what they're trying to display in the movie. Yes, despite the amazingly looking visuals that occasionally made me so impressed I forgot all about how bored I was for a short while and despite being 100% on board with what the movie has displayed, I still was bored.

To the point where adults can watch it to feel like a kid again and children can watch it to be amazed by the movie's world.īut here's where my praise stops and my gripes with the movie starts. But I have to add, since its audience seemed to have been children, it has build an impressive world with imaginative designs in a realistic looking manner. But the reason it also has to be captivating it is because it's trying to display the innocence of children, which is the artistic goal of the movie. And I assure this was artstyle was very impressive if it still is today back then. Yeah, sure, anything has to be captivating, but in this situation, you have to keep in mind, the audience was intended to be children. You see there's a point to the art actually being this well animated and that is that its goal is to be as captivating as anything can be. Anyway, up next I'm gonna talk about, more of the art, and rather, its significance in this movie. Ok, now the movie so far was 10/10 children cry real. The range of emotions displayed in a few frames was done as right as anyone could ever do them and I can't imagine someone outdoing this kid. It may seem a ridiculous thing to pick out the level of detail for animation, but that's what I found most impressive. All down to the point of starting to cry silently because she was upset then up to the outburst of emotion, screaming and bawling as soon as she was given attention again the way children do when they are given attention in these situations. However, in Totoro, when the child started crying I could see the range of emotions she went through and react realistically, the same way any child of that age would. Most people don't even put any effort into the way they display someone crying and see it as something simple and easy to portray. However, watching a child cry in this made me realize something. Have you ever seen someone cry in an anime? I will assume that most of the time, depending on what you watch of course, crying doesn't rise any red flags. As an example there will be some scenes with children crying. The animation has plenty of small details throw in that makes each frame look lively and realistic. While the obligatory "for its time, it looks incredible" compliment must be said, I'll do one more and say that for our time, I wish people would pay as much attention to detail in animation as was done in Tonari no Totoro and would look at least half as good. Starting with the movie's strong suits, the artistic side of it is outstanding. So all I can present is what factored into my experience only a 5 with what the movie has had done and has not done. Tried to do because it was succesful in what it did.

In this case, I don't have a lot to criticize on what the movie actually I usually prefer to criticize a show for what it tried to be but failed while presenting every factor I deemed important about the movie and why eventually it was only an average experience for me. Before the "what the fuck is wrong with you, a 5 on a ghibli movie, kill yourself" settles in, I want to assure you that the movie did everything that it set out to be outstandingly and if I was from that target audience, I would probably consider it nothing short of a masterpiece.
