Leave your thoughts about Howl's Moving Castle.
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittYou run across animation this ingenious about as often as a moving castle comes your way. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonPerfect for anyone with a youthful heart and a rich imagination. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranParse it any way you like, Miyazaki's gifts as an animator place him in a category of his own. To see his latest film is to be somehow reminded of Italians who could hear Verdi's operas as soon as they were sung or English readers who could experience the novels of Dickens episode by episode. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumThe movie's dreamlike spaces and characters are sometimes worthy of Lewis Carroll. |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowHowl's Moving Castle is one animated epic that has it all: poetic intensity, potent storytelling, vivid and surprising characters, and intoxicating powers of visual imagination. |
| Portland OregonianM. E. RussellIt's one of the best and strangest films of Miyazaki's career. |
| Village VoiceMichael AtkinsonAn organic, childlike wonder, fabulously unpredictable and seethingly inventive. |
| NewsweekDavid AnsenHowl's Moving Castle has the logic of a dream: behind every door lie multiple realities, one more astonishing than the next. |
| PremiereGlenn KennyThe plot is pretty convoluted, but Miyazaki has a very good handle on it and lavishes his customary heart, humor, and inventiveness on every situation he depicts. |
| Charlotte ObserverLawrence ToppmanA picture from an old man working at the top of his game. |
