Atom User Reviews for Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind - Studio Ghibli Fest 2023
I really love this movie. It’s got a beautiful vintage sci-fi look and a wonderful message. I could see how this may be a bit dull for younger children, but it wonderful for older animation fans. I highly recommend it.
I love all Studio Ghibli films but, there’s just something about watching it in theaters that makes it SOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!! Lol I totes recommend watching!!
I'm a fan of the newer Ghibli work, so I was taking a chance on Nausicaä and I'm glad I did. It's definitely slow, but the pace picks up quickly and has an ending I enjoyed. The characters are likeable, the swordmaster and commander being my two favorite. The story is very prescient of today's environmental woes, which was cool. Now on to more older Ghibli films!
A very good message to respect the forest and animals. Good for all ages.
One of my favorite movies by Studio Ghibli.
Haven't seen this in probably 25-30 years, the animation still holds up, story is epic and it was fantastic to see it on the big screen
Metacritic
The film is good-hearted, energetic, and full of Ghibli's characteristically beautiful hand-rendered animation, but it's also lightweight and hyper, with none of Miyazaki's more resonant themes.

Dreamlike Ghibli animation that's well worth seeking out.
