Please Don’t – From Up on Poppy Hill

On February 11, 2021January 8, 2021 By GiftIn Film1 Comment

SPOILERS WITHIN I loved this movie! It was so calming to watch and I was so glad because finally a love story with teenagers! I was beginning to think Studio Ghibli didn’t do them. This movie was done by Gorou Miyazaki and honestly this is one of my favourite Ghibli films. So far my top …

Does Age Matter? – Ponyo

On February 4, 2021January 8, 2021 By GiftIn FilmLeave a comment

SPOILERS WITHIN For the most part this movie is cute. The characters are good and the love in it is very puppy love which is cute. So, so far I think it’s cute! I also love the cinematography, the way they animate the ocean and the underwater world and when the ocean takes over everything. …

On January 28, 2021January 8, 2021 By GiftIn Film1 Comment

SPOILERS WITHIN This is the most popular Ghibli movie, along with My Neighbour Totoro, and I was wondering if I would also love it. I didn’t want to follow the crowd, I like to be unique, as this post highlights, but I followed the crowd. I like this movie. It deserves the hype it gets! …

Nature Always Wins – Princess Mononoke

On January 14, 2021January 8, 2021 By GiftIn Film2 Comments

SPOILERS WITHIN Princess Mononoke, I was really looking forward to crossing this off of my to watch list. Given how everyone loves this film I thought I would love it too. I was wrong. I don’t hate it but I definitely don’t love it. It wasn’t what I expected. It was more graphic in its …

Countryside living vs City life

On December 3, 2020November 10, 2020 By GiftIn FilmLeave a comment

I was watching My Neighbour Totoro (MNT) and it got me thinking about the joys of living in the countryside. Oh and by the way I loved MNT. It was such a feel good movie. It was so simple and yet so powerful and just, it left me with nothing but warmth and taught me …

Howl’s Moving Castle – Old School Review

On October 8, 2020October 8, 2020 By GiftIn Film1 Comment

SPOILERS WITHIN It’s been a while since I’ve done an old school review… a very long while. I used to review old movies I love or old movies I’d never gotten the chance to see. I called that series Old School Review. The posts are still up on my blog, they’re just probably way at …
