my younger sis have been spending her holidays watching movies and cartoons, hogging the tv all to herself, leaving me choiceless but to spend my holidays watching sailormoon, lion king, and other disney movies repeatly.


i think i am gifted with a good memory. watch once remember all. and until now i have never like watching any movies twice, including Bleach, except one.


today my sis was watching a movie that i have seen for more than 10 times. and i find myself so engross with the movie it felt like i was watching it for the first time. there was just something exciting about the movie that have engulfed me, in a way lah.

directed, written and hand-drawned by Hayao Miyazaki, the guy who brought us Princess Mononoke,
Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi (Spirited Away).


It about this 10 year old girl, Chihiro kinda sullen and sulky due to what had happened and all, who had wandered into another world ruled and occupied with demons, gods, witches and monsters, where all human beings will be turned into pigs. Her parents were unfortunately turned into pigs because of their greddiness. Luckily there is Haku, who had helped her to adapt with the strange ugly world. Then she was forced to work a bathhouse, owned by some brutal ugly distorted granny, in order to save her parents.


Its the most amazing movie i have ever seen. There aint no time to even blink my eyes because every moment is just so enchanting and magical. Its probably the most imaginative movie ever. The animation and characters are uniquely beautiful in their own weird way. It soundtrack is fantasy.


And i like the way those old-fashioned-techniques had works, giving all other animations created using high tech equipments a disgrace. Transitions between scenes so smooth you wouldnt even realise youre watching the last scene. I cant wait for another movie from Miyazaki, all his other movies are equally high rated and internationally acclaimed. :)
