Really enjoyed this movie but one major disappointment was the exclusion of Joe Hisaishi. I think this is the first Hayao Miyazaki film that Hisaishi didn't do the music for, not that I didn't enjoy the music but i've come to expect his melodies and themes :(

Still wouldn't put this film in my top 5 Ghibli films and certainly not in my top 5 Miyazaki films.

Well, it wasn't directed by Miyazaki, so that's understandable. I co-wrote it, but it's not quite the same if he's not directing.

Great Animation and a good movie over all.

Though compared to stuff like Nausicaa, Princess Mononoke, and Spirited Away, it doesn't come close.

Then again my top 3 are Mononoke, Howl's, and Castle in the Sky, so I guess I'm kind of a weirdo.

Arrietty was pretty good. I'd say the art and animation are some of the best Ghibli has ever done. Can't say I liked Disney changing the characters' names to English ones, though, mostly since it was still easy to tell the movie was set in Japan.

Updated ranking of Ghibli films I've seen:
SA > Kiki > Mononoke > Ponyo > Totoro > Only Yesterday > Laputa > Arrietty > Nausicaa > Porco Rosso

edit: lol




Totally missed this. I see it was Yonebayashi's directorial debut and this also explains why Hisaishi did not do the music. Ok, i'll remove my Miyazaki ranking comment, but it still stands, not in my Top 5 Ghibli films.

I can't tell if you're joking, but in the source material they have English names and the setting is post World War England.

Eh...I don't really know. It'd probably be a better introductory Ghibli movie than, say, Totoro or Ponyo. Ghibli movies are generally slow and meandering and the point is the journey. Those two are the extreme of that end, and some people don't like them for that reason. You might want to start with Spirited Away or one of the more plot-centric ones like Mononoke or something. Arietty is somewhere between those extremes.

Welp, about time I rank Miyazaki films.

Howl (Favorite)
Mononoke
Spirited Away
Totoro
Ponyo
Porco Rosso
Laputa
Kiki (least liked)

Fascinating. Which reminds me, I think I have Nausicaa... though that might be a dream. Gotta dig through my crap.

Watched other Ghibli movies as well, they're... unevenly distributed. That Raccoon dog movie goes straight to the bottom though.
