'Spirited Away' is good, but there are better. 'Jin Roh' is my current fave, followed closely by 'Metropolis', 'Wings of Honneamise', and 'Akira'. As compared to Miyazaki's other stuff, I'd actually put 'Spirited Away' close to the bottom. Not that it's a bad film; just that I don't put it in the same league as 'Castle of Cagliostro' or 'Princess Mononoke'. |
