Grave of the Fireflies

Jun 2, 2014

Before I watched this I expected another amazing Studio Ghibli film with gorgeous animation and meaningful stories. I got what I exactly was expecting on that front and also a whole lot more. Although it was said to be sad, sad is definetly not a term to be used lightly when reffering to this movie. Try utterly heart-wrentching instead. I was crying 10 minutes into it and didn't stop until the movie was over. It was absouletly beautiful. What made it so beautiful though? Where to begin. The most meaningful story out of the ghibli films, it's a story that leaves you thinking. It isn't a film without moving... See full review
