    USA Today Claudia Puig

    Director Hayao Miyazaki treats his audience as imaginative and intelligent human beings, rather than catering to kids with rote displays of silliness, stunts and scares.

    Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert

    It's enchanting and delightful in its own way, and has a good heart. It is the best animated film of recent years, the latest work by Hayao Miyazaki, the Japanese master who is a god to the Disney animators.

    Variety Derek Elley

    An out-and-out charmer. It's almost impossible to do justice in words either to the visual richness of the movie, which melanges traditional Japanese clothes and architecture with both Victorian and modern-day artifacts, or to the character-filled storyline, with human figures, harpies and grotesque creatures.

    A triumph of psychological depth and artistic brilliance offered as the magical adventures of one skinny little girl.

    The New York Times A.O. Scott

    The towering, lost dreaminess at the heart of the film is an unmistakable obsession of this director.

    The Hollywood Reporter

    Spirited dazzles and entertains like no other movie this year. It also comes to a satisfying conclusion and never once seems to take shortcuts. Miyazaki is one of world cinema's most wondrously gifted artists and storytellers.
