Scott Hardie: “It ruled.”

The joy of Miyazaki's films is in their richness, both in the visuals, where he patiently adds extraneous details to make every scene look real, and in the worlds, which thrive with so many multi-faceted characters that you don't know who's really good and who's really evil until well into the second half. This ambiguity allows for a moral exploration as well as a visual one, even if Miyazaki has to make his point in the end. He's getting repetitive at this late stage in his career, but he still makes gorgeous masterpieces of animé.
