What an utter disappointment. I was really looking forward to seeing this but after viewing I wish I never had. The film was meant to be beautiful but just failed to engage. I was dreading a terrible ending but the ending I got was worse. TheWhat an utter disappointment. I was really looking forward to seeing this but after viewing I wish I never had.

But really it's not worth watching! Expand

For this to score higher than any other Ghibli movies is rather stunning. This tale is at its core not so interesting as the main character Kaguya spends most of her short life on Earth in complete ignorance to the life around her andFor this to score higher than any other Ghibli movies is rather stunning. This tale is at its core not so interesting as the main character Kaguya spends most of her short life on Earth in complete ignorance to the life around her and completely raptured by what is superficially being waved in her face, even though its to her dislike. She is powerless to be more than an annoyance to the men wanting her hand and in the end when its too late she suddenly finds the ability to lets just say do things humans normally cannot do in order to spend the 1 minute in the film that is suppose to bring us to the ultimate conclusion...whatever that was. Try any other Ghibli movie and you will be more than satisfied relative to this clunker. Expand

I've watched and loved many Studio Gbili movies. Plus positive reviews of this movie. So with high expectations going in sustained at first by the first half hour being pleasant and the art is beautiful. The next part of the movie isI've watched and loved many Studio Gbili movies. Plus positive reviews of this movie. So with high expectations going in sustained at first by the first half hour being pleasant and the art is beautiful. The next part of the movie is gruelingly depressing including people being unreasonably stupid to keep the movie on it's senseless trajectory, including at least two inexplicable timeline resets that make you scream what just happened?!?

Ending in a deeply depressing. If you are like me, you will feel like your mind was just **** I got such a headache now.
