So far I've watched Spirited Away and I really loved it. Animation style has aged really well and it did not feel like a film from early 2000's. The main thing I took away from the movie was the soundtrack which blew me away, some really beautiful music.

I just took to the movie pretty much instantly, and they got me engrossed in the world and characters it builds so quickly. I can see why this director is acclaimed.

Face/Off and Commando are movies I'll be rewatching, and I'm looking forward to it.

I will hopefully watch one or two of these flicks this weekend so I can toss my thoughts in here.

To your thoughts on Spirited Away I always felt the movie centered on gluttony and what happens when all you do is consume things. It also shows how one person who cares can help save a family member

Finally watched Spirited Away - honestly one of the most beautiful films in the animation style I think I've ever seen. I know I recommended this one myself, but eventually watched the 2nd half with my younger sibling as was worth the wait.

Oh. I forgot all about this

Me too, I'll try and work on the other films. I loved Spirited Away!
