I was surprised by how much I enjoyed these short films! Each film left me wanting more, but it was sort of fitting with the theme of "Modest Heroes." I also appreciate that they tried to present stories that kids could see themselves in. The first and last are more fantastical, but the second is very down-to-earth. Food allergies are becoming very common and I know if I had a food allergy and saw this as a kid it would have sparked a lot of hope. --The behind the scenes commentary was also great! From the little bit they shared, this studio is committed to creating meaningful and inspiring content for kids. We need more of this!

Why. Animation was great. Story was bad. Time was not what it was advertised. It said one hour and fifteen and that's because of the 30 minute interview with the director about why it is so short. Every story was okay except none of the stories had any point to them.

These short films were great! And be sure to stay and watch the commentary at the end. I love Studio Ghibli and I love Studio Ponoc for doing things their own way. Very creative art direction in each short film and the stories really take you along as if it's happening to you. I thoroughly enjoyed Modest Heroes dubbed!

Good to see Ponoc walking on their own, experimenting with different styles and figuring out themselves. Those were beautiful shorts that left me curious for their next installment.

A great collection of short films. I saw it on a random whim since I was near the theater, and am really glad I did. Some amazing film work here.

Three shorts and an interview, so stay after the credits. The stories are little capsules of life--struggles against dangers big and small, beautifully animated.

thr last one was the best

Just an awesome film . can't wait for more.

My kids and I absolutely loved all three stories and the interview that followed. We have always been huge fans of Studio Ghibli and are very excited for the future of Studio Ponoc. Original but keeping the Ghibli spirit alive.

The movie was suppose to be dub, but it was subbed. Also, it’s a collection of 3 short films, but the lack of information is probably my fault for not reading thoroughly. It’s cute but not what I expected.

They should have added a couple more shorts to make it more varied

Overall feel good short films! The ending with the director describing his experiences was the cherry in top for this aspiring animator !

Quite a joy to watch but needed editing at the end. The interview portion dragged on too long.
