My Neighbor totoro review
My Rating: 8.5/10
IMDb Rating: 8.3/10 Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 93% Metacritics Rating: N/A MyAnimeList Rating: My Favorite Quotes 1. "Totoro? Yup that's your name." - May Those two girls are honestly the most adorable things ever. Their personalitys always smiling and laughing and bonding as sisters. Their parents who love them unconditionally is so cute and heart warming. I understand this is just a movie, but the way their dad treats them is something special he is so nice and wants his girls to follow their imaginations. Totoro is also the cutest little or big creature ever. This is such a heart warming film. (Spoiler) The entire sequence of events when her sister went missing were absolutely heart wrenching. With the sandal found in the pond ending up not being her sister was such a heart stopper and a massive relief. Another thing that I find interesting about this movie is the massive theory created by the fans. The fan theory is that Totoro is actually the God of Death and the reason only the sisters can see him is because they are both either dead or near death. From what I have heard near the end of them movie the sister no longer have shadows and this is because they died. I understand this theory can easily be debunked, but it is fun to consider. It is not meant to be taken extremely seriously and critiqued by movie reviewers to point out all the flaws. So I am going to end off by saying its a fabulous film for every kind of person as long as you can smile you will love this movie and if you are not the smiling type this movie will surely turn your frown upside down. |
