absolutely gorgeous, charcoal drawings with watercolour palette, the tale of princess kaguya might be the most visual appealing ghibli movie out there so far. not to be demeaning but ghiblis biggest director, miyazakis art style is often familiar but it works well enough for the film and miyazaki attention to details (see spirited away, the busiest feature-length ghibli film) is so spectacular that he definitely earned a spot as one of the best animation director so far. but isao takahatas filmography hardly looks similar, hes willing to experiment with different animation style. 14 years read more

moving and imaginative in its simplicity and rawness, a throwback to an animated era of yesteryear, detailing a legend from even further back. the painted colours and minimalist lines show takahata's longing to tell an emotive tale of how much he and the moon/bamboo princess long to remain, and why not, for every world and studio needs its artistic art-house films and filmmakers, to carry literary imagination onto the silver screen. read more

the passage of time is extraordinary when you think about it. it feels slow when you're in the moment, far gone when you look back and the future is visible to us only as short sequences. even the moments that we cherished will perish as we pass away this land. to me the tale of the princess kaguya is a film about these concepts. exploring about youth, life, and love through the story of a mystical girl sent to the earth. told with upmost precision and attention to detail tale of the princess of kaguya is definitely a masterpiece. (post scriptum: the art direction is the best i've seen. read more

der film hat bei mir leider nicht vollends connected, und somit hat das ende für mich nicht so funktioniert wie es eigentlich sollte. dennoch ein ganz besonderer animationsstil mit grandiosen sequenzen (bsp. flucht im traum), und einer ausarbeitung der charaktere auf höchstem niveau. read more

initially this film wasn't doing much for me, but when i started thinking about how to explain the significance of the story, i began revising my whole opinion of the film. i may have to revisit this again before i can even come up with a rating... "what's it all about, alfie?": the film is essentially a modern adaptation of the oldest written japanese folktale "the tale of the bamboo cutter". the difficulty with this film is similar to most of takahata's films: that in order to understand the messages he is subtly communicating, you need a good degree of familiarity with japanese culture and... read more

for me, this did not felt like a movie at all. instead, i felt like i was hearing the original 10th century story, told for me and some few people too by someone who saw it happening with their own eyes. aided by the gorgeous imagery, powerful themes and superb soundtrack and editing, i just can say this is "breathtaking!". 9.9/10 read more

The glowing ‘Tale of the Princess Kaguya By Ty Burr Globe Staff, November 13, 2014, 5:50 p.m. Even casual fans of animation know that Hayao Miyazaki is the wizard of Japans Studio Ghibli and one of the all-time masters of his art. Fewer are aware of his long-time colleague Isao Takahata, cofounder of Ghibli, whose films tend toward realism while Miyazakis bend toward the surreal. Takahatas “Grave of the Fireflies” (1988), a startlingly harsh tale of childhood suffering during World War II, is a little-seen classic that may be the most somber animated film ever made. “The Tale of the... read more
