“My Neighbor Totoro” is a light and fun movie by Studio Ghibli. Like the other movies from the same studio, the animation is gorgeous and refreshing—very fluid, happy, and peaceful. The movie follows two young girls who move in with their…

I love the first part of the movie when they move in. It captures all the excitement of a new home. The scenery in this movie is gorgeous. The house has my dream (indoor) kitchen and bath. An idyllic representation of country life in Japan.

Absolutely a classic for a reason. Gentle and sweet, but not in a saccharine way and still super compelling. Bears repeated watchings, which is important when you're watching with kids!

Glorious movie and, as others have noted, one of Miyazaki's best. Doesn't indulge in cheap jokes or breakneck bells and whistles speed the way so many kids movies are so it's not overwhelming in the those movies can be. The pacing and…

My Neighbor Totoro was my favourite movie as a kid, and my subsequent gateway into Studio Ghibli movies. As always, Hayao Miyazaki’s art is gorgeous and colourful, drawing the viewer into a world of forest tunnels and soot sprites with…

Without question, this is one of Miyazaki's finest movies.

Finally watched this classic movie with my family and young kid. Coming off of watching Disney movies, Miyazaki films take me into a fun, fantastic world of make-believe. My kid was totally engrossed and wanted more.

There is so much to love about this gently poignant story. Hayao Miyazaki's craftsmanship is masterful. He captures a child's perspective with deft respect and honesty through beautiful artwork. In an age when much of the entertainment…

If you're looking for a relaxing movie for all ages to watch, this is the one for you. The animation is stunning (as with all Studio Ghibli films) and you'll love the characters, too.

"My Neighbor Totoro" is less a movie than a mood. The beautiful dreamscape created in this film is wholly engrossing, and the sense of warm nostalgia it evokes for childhood is soothing, like a warm blanket or a cup of cocoa. The story is…

A rich, tender, and well paced little drama with key fantastic elements; there could be many spin offs from the idea, that is, more stories including Totoro.

My Neighbor Totoro is fairly typical of Studio Ghibli films, combining elements of sadness with adventure and a little imaginative whimsy. It's a good one to start with and suitable for children (whereas Grave Of The Fireflies may…

An absolute joy of a film. Pure whimsy and a treat for all ages.

This film captures the essence of childhood, a time when play-filled days seem to stretch on forever, adult concerns are mysterious, and magic is perfectly plausible. The sisters' relationship is realistic: they are competing with each…

One of the first animes that I watched and I had no idea this was even an anime since I watched the english dub. This DVD is the japanese with english subtitles but is just as good as the english dub, maybe better depending on who you ask.…

Mei, the younger sister, was my favorite character. She was so precious and funny! This movie made me feel like a child again.

Is it even possible to watch this movie without getting all warm and fuzzy inside?

My Neighbor Totoro is a brilliant classic, beloved by young children in Japan, and with a faithful following here too. For me personally, it's not nearly as beloved, but maybe that's because I've grown cynical.
