One of the finest family films ever made.

A film that crosses generations and cultural barriers: watching it, it's hard not to feel like a kid again.

Obviously aimed at an international audience, the film evinces a disorienting combination of cultures that produces a nowhere land more confused than fascinating.

Not as complex or tense as Spirited Away (Hayao Miyazaki's masterpiece, released 13 years later). Still, few things are.

A typically erratic effort from Hayao Miyazaki...

A beautifully observed film that has become a guaranteed charmer for all ages.

Miyazaki's appreciation of miraculous possibilities and childhood visions is what drives Totoro.

...a clarion call for the legitimacy of imagination - not only in stories, but in the real world.

The lack of sentimentality will be utterly refreshing to those raised on a diet of Disney.

Sheer enchantment.

Despite these limits, My Neighbor Totoro is a gentle and affirming film.
May 23, 2013
The world the characters inhabit is less expressionist than impressionist, blessed with a delicate evocation of natural light and color that subtly incorporates Miyazaki's environmentalism.
