Princess Mononoke is Hayao Miyazaki's epic, his greatest work. It is profound and complex, and dense in mythology and history. For a man whose career was solidified by the soft and sweet nature of My Neighbour Totoro, it was bold and ambitious to make a film this long,…

MY GOD EVERONE SHOULD WATCH THIS. This movie gives such a good perspectives on humans and life. it's not black and white, it's chaos on both sides. everyone just wants to survive and life and destroy the others while doing so. The end was perfect. I got this as my first tattoo.

This movie isn’t what I thought it would be. My friend told me she didn’t like it because of the blood and fighting so I was a bit skeptical. But I love it. It shows the complexity of life, how the world changes and everyone wants something. It’s similar to Pocahontas, but better

Princess Mononoke

Breathtakingly animated and beautifully written, Princess Mononoke is one of Miyazakis finest films. Not only is it epic, but it’s story is resonant and heartfelt, making this a truly masterful work even in comparison to Miyazaki’s other films. 9/10

Princess Mononoke

This movie has an incredible message, is beautifully animated, and is simply fascinating to watch. There is something about the ending that I was slightly unsatisfied with, but that does not take away from this amazing experience
