Anyone else seen this film? Just ordered it, as I'd heard great things about it, plus they were raving about it on Rotten Tomatoes (97%)...does it live up to the hype?

Seen it a couple of times, thought it was fantastic. If you appreciate animation mastery and surreal/fantastical themes and storylines, then you'll like it.

Its a very innocent film...makes you feel young and believe in all the stuff you did as a kid.
Worth a watch. I had never bothered with Anime in the past but loved this film.

It's absolutely fantastic, the best anime movie I've ever watched. Have watched it a couple of times. If you like the movie, I also recommend watching other Hayao Miyazaki stuff. Hope you'll like it!

Yeah, like someone else said, most of Miyazaki's films are great, because they make you feel like a kid again. Loved this film, and also very much liked Howel's Moving Castle. Good to watch w/ family.
Both very good films imo, great animation quality and soundtracks are always great. I think some guy named Joe Hisashi does them, and he really does a phenomenal job. Great classical music.

Not Miyazaki's best film, but still pretty good. If you want to see the best of anime, you should consider renting or buying "Grave of the Fireflies."
