Review: Princess Mononoke

In part two of his three reviews of Miyazaki classics, Martin Butler has taken a look at the popular “fantasy adventure” Princess Mononoke, out now in the UK and even selling in some online stores for as little as £5.99.

• Princess Mononoke is a visually stunning story of the battle between humankind and nature, and probably Miyazaki’s most ambitious story to date. By no means a retread of the Earlier Nausicäa film, Princess Mononoke is dark, beautiful and violent but still conveys an underlying sense of hope in the face of the struggle and conflict. Highly recommended.
