epic by Japan's master animator Hayao Miyazaki.
While protecting his village from a rampaging
boar-god, the warrior Ashitaka (Billy Crudup) is
cursed with a rapidly spreading scar that
threatens to end his life. Seeking a cure and a
reason for the animal-god's attack, he journeys
into the sacred depths of the Great Forest
Spirit's realm. On the edge of this once serene
forest, however, the Tatara clan have begun to
destroy the surrounding land to produce iron. In
retaliation, San (Claire Danes), the adopted
daughter of the wolf-god Moro (Gillian Anderson),
has begun raiding the Tatara fortress to stop
their encroachment. Soon Ashitaka is caught in the
middle and must stop the war between the humans
and the forest dwellers before they destroy each
other.Miyazaki, who was personally responsible for
80,000 of the film's 144,000 hand drawings, uses
the story's lush feudal setting as a character
unto itself, filling the screen with vast
mountainous landscapes and gorgeous wooded glens
that recall his early film, NAUSICAA OF THE VALLEY
OF THE WIND. The film also features battle
sequences that are reminiscent of the stunning
live action warfare in Akira Kurosawa's RAN. The
startlingly fluid movements of these mythological
characters are detailed far beyond any other
hand-animated production, easily making this one
of the most spectacular animated films ever made.

A couple of weeks ago UK cinemas saw the latest release from Japanese anime director Hayao Miyazaki in the form of Howls Moving Castle. With that in mind I thought I'd go back and review one of Miyazaki's earlier, and greatest, films - Princess Mononoke.

Anime, for those who aren't already aware, is a form of animation native to East Asian nations and particularly Japan. Contrary to the animation of western cultures most anime is not aimed primarily at children with storylines and scripts that are often far more complex and indepth, covering subjects that mainstream western animation wouldn't dream of.

Within the genre the films Hayao Miyazaki, the writer and director of Princess Mononoke, are among those that receive the highest levels of acclaim. In his native Japan, Miyazaki is given the same sort of respect that is held here for the cream of Hollywood directors and, thankfully, he is beginning to gain an increasing number of fans here in the UK. This is due, in the main, to the Oscar winning masterpiece that is Spirited Away. Whilst Spirited Away is well worthy of receiving the mainstream popularity that it did it's also a shame that Miyazaki's other work wasn't particularly well known until Spirited Aways 2003 release as all are classic films in their own right. Princess Mononoke certainly is.

The film is set in a Japan of many centuries past. A Japan in which the great forests, that once covered all the land, are dwindling fast due to human intervention. And this destruction is having dire consequences. It's angering the Gods and spirits that for many years have safeguarded these forests. Yep that's right Gods and spirits for we are dealing with a world of fantasy here.

Our story begins when a great demon threatens the village of the last of the Emishi tribe. Thankfully the hero of the tale, a young Emishi prince by the name of Ashitaka, is able to kill the demon before it is able to reek havoc upon the his village. It turns out the demon was once a giant boar but his body was poisoned by a small iron ball that angered and corrupted the boar bringing out the demon within.

Unfortunately for young Ashitaka his battle with the demon has left inflicted with a terrible infection in his arm which the village wise women believes will spread throughout his body causing terrible pain and ultimately death. He now has but one option. He must travel to the west from where the iron ball came and attempt to find a way of lifting the terrible curse.

And so Ashitaka performs the ritual of cutting his hair and rides from the Emishi, on his loyal Red Elk Yakul, never to return again.

Via rather violent, though not overly graphic, battles with Samurai (that might make you question the PG rating given to this film) Ashitaka comes upon two injured men. Leading them through the realm of the forest spirit Ashitaka brings the two men back to their home settlement of Iron Town. In this Iron producing town (original name there then) he meets the Lady Eboshi whom, he discovers, is engaged in a battle with the wolf God Moro, her two offspring and San, a human child adopted by the Wolves over the forest mountain in which the forest spirit roams and the great riches it conceals beneath in iron form. What ensues is a race for Ashitaka to attempt to save all, man, beast and spirit, which occurs in the form of some of the most enthralling and dramatic scenes ever seen in animation.

In all aspects this film has been very well directed and produced. The storyline and script are both highly intelligent and remarkably engaging from first to last. Princess Mononokes subject matter of the battle between man and the natural world could, in the wrong hands, have lead to a film that is a little heavy going and possibly not entirely enjoyable. However Miyazaki broaches this serious matter skilfully with gripping character interaction and touches of humour from the likes of lesser characters Jigo and ex-working girl Toki. Add to this the thrill of the Gods, Demons and Spirits and you have a film that will captivate all from the word go.

As for the animation of Princess Mononoke well, there simply aren't enough superlatives in the world to do it justice. Step aside Nemo and Mr Incredible you can keep your computer generated wizardry if this is what can be done with the human hand. From the very first cell Princess Mononoke is nothing short of a work of art....and a very fine one at that. The backdrops are vast and beautiful while the characters are always perfectly detailed and their movements precise and life-like. I could happily watch this film on mute without subtitles and simply admire the view - all 2 hours and 8 minutes of it!

The characterisation within Princess Mononoke is also quite superb and the casting for the English version has pulled in some very talented and well known hollywood names. Ashitaka (voiced excellently by Billy Crudup) is highly believable as a young man who truly desires to achieve his direction. Lady Eboshi (Minnie Driver) is similarly brilliant exuding power whenever she graces the screen. The other major characters all play their part well too with Clair Danes as San being particularly well played and Gillian Anderson as Moro also deserving credit. However in truth it's some of the smaller performances that really make this film. Billy Bob Thornton is astounding and amusing as Jigo and some real laughs can be found in the forms of John Demitas Kohroku and his screen wife Toki, played by Jada Prinkett Smith. It's these characters and their performances that turn what would be a great film anyway into something that's really rather special.

If I do have one criticism of the casting it's that all the parts are played by Caucasian actors/actresses. Now whilst their performances are all of an extremely high standard I also feel the need to question why they can't get Japanese actors to play Japanese characters as it just seems to improve the authenticity. Now this is a minor quibble and if it really bugs you can always watch the Japanese spoken original with subtitles as provided on the DVD version of the film.

The Soundtrack of Princess Mononoke is near perfect for the film. It rises dramatically in moments of high drama without ever becoming over bearing. Elsewhere the classical score helps greatly in the setting of scenes and in creating all important atmosphere.

As for the extras included on this DVD well to be honest they're a little lack lustre. In addition to the normal inclusions of subtitles and scene selection there's a behind the scenes feature, original theatrical trailer and the aforementioned original Japanese version. The behind the scenes feature is worth watching once with contributions coming from, among others, some of the English language actors. But it's fairly short and nothing out of the ordinary. As for the trailer well it does exactly what is says on the tin. Pretty unnecessary really. However let these not put you off as it's obviously for the main feature which you'll buy this.

And what a main feature it is. It encompasses many emotions from anger and hatred through to minglings of both despair and hope. It's a wonderful story that's been animated to near perfection. I simply can't recommend this film enough. It's certainly one of my favourites and a must for anyone who's seen and enjoyed Miyazakis Spirited away. One word of warning though. Whilst this is a PG rated film there is a fair bit of cartoon violence that may make it unsuitable for the particularly young.

You should find Princess Mononoke readily available in most large high street DVD sellers. Currently no online retailers are selling it particularly cheap (I got it for onlt £5.99 a few months ago from MVC.co.uk I think) so I suggest you shop around or of course Ebay is likely to regularly have bargain copies (or go the whole hog and buy the Ghibli boxset from there which includes all of Studio Ghiblis great animated features and will prevent you owning this film twice as I now do!)

For fans of:
Miyazaki, Anime in general, fantasy films and just plain well made cinema.

Thanks. Phil :)

This is a review of Princess Mononoke movie done by Hayao Miyazaki (whom also did Kiki's Delivery Service and the Oscar winning film Spirited Away). I had no idea of this film till about 5 days ago, when a friend recommended it to me, and I was thinking, hmm why not? So I bought it off Play.com for really cheap at the price of £5.99. Then a few days past and it finally came, thinking to myself that I could not wait to watch it. Later that day, I ...

I give this film 5 star * * * * *, as I found it very enjoyable, the characters were very good and the style is good, and also it is very imaginative.

Review of Princess Mononoke (Animated) (DVD) by HardCoreGamer2k2

Advantages: Truly Beautiful Animation, Deep Plot
Disadvantages: None

...this film is known as Princess Mononoke on this side of the world. Even though this doesn't sound like much, I mean you could ask the same amount of people if they have heard of something horrible like say, Charlies Angels and most people will recognize that one without even having to think about it. When it comes to anime though quite a few people don't even know what it is, and so this is why the amount of recognition the movie has recieved here ...
...nowadays, I would say that Princess Mononoke is one of the few that deserves the status that it achieves, in fact, it deserves much more. Title: Princess Mononoke Year: 1997 Director: Hayao Miyazaki Genre: Action / Animated I first heard of Princess Mononoke when I stumbled across it on television once.

Review of Blood - The Last Vampire (DVD) by  tom1clare

Advantages: Mostly super-presentation, interesting concept, plenty of extras
Disadvantages: Under-developed plot, film only 42 minutes long, characters aren't memorable

...Having recently sampled in the delights of undiscovered anime classic 'Princess Mononoke', I decided it was time to investigate the genre a little closer. Blood - The Last Vampire was the next DVD I bought. A manga animation, Blood is a curious film set in 1966, just before the Vietnam war started. Events focus around the young, mysterious girl Saya, who we first see travelling on an underground train, staring peacefully into space. Things begin to get a little more interesting however when she slaughters the other passenger in her carridge with her not particularly well-hidden sword. It emerges that Saya is working with a team of undercover agents (think Men In Black-types and you've got it), whereby she seems to be some kind of demon-slayer, sent to kill beasties who can morph in and out of human form. The undercover agents track... Read review

DVD Description

A beautifully realized tale of civilization versus nature, PRINCESS MONONOKE is a true epic by Japan's master animator Hayao Miyazaki. While protecting his village from a rampaging boar-god, the warrior Ashitaka (Billy Crudup) is cursed with a rapidly spreading scar that threatens to end his life. Seeking a cure and a reason for the animal-god's attack, he journeys into the sacred depths of the Great Forest Spirit's realm. On the edge of this once serene forest, however, the Tatara clan have begun to destroy the surrounding land to produce iron. In retaliation, San (Claire Danes), the adopted daughter of the wolf-god Moro (Gillian Anderson), has begun raiding the Tatara fortress to stop their encroachment. Soon Ashitaka is caught in the middle and must stop the war between the humans and the forest dwellers before they destroy each other.
Miyazaki, who was personally responsible for 80,000 of the film's 144,000 hand drawings, uses the story's lush feudal setting as a character unto itself, filling the screen with vast mountainous landscapes and gorgeous wooded glens that recall his early film, NAUSICAA OF THE VALLEY OF THE WIND. The film also features battle sequences that are reminiscent of the stunning live action warfare in Akira Kurosawa's RAN. The startlingly fluid movements of these mythological characters are detailed far beyond any other hand-animated production, easily making this one of the most spectacular animated films ever made.
