Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a movie that every parent or future parent should watch. It is about knowing when to hold on and when to let go.

great film, may not have a fast enough pace for some but recommend for all to see, also check directors other works like Summer Wars.

Japanese Animation always provide the different story from other countries. This is one of beautiful story and beautiful animation.

My daughter loves anime she loved this she cried with it and laughed

A interesting family movie that everyone will enjoy, great animation and good story. One of the best anime movies!

Friend showed me it back then. One of the first anime movie I watched and a actually love the story

The photorealistic animation drawn in shifting light is at times fantastical at other times gut-wrenching. Watch it if you can tolerate an overall melancholic theme.

Movie was awesome and looked great. However, BB would not pricematch this item when it was almost 7 dollars cheaper elsewhere

This movie has always been one of my favorites glad to own on Blu-ray now!

This movie was fantastic so wonderful they did such an awesome job on the artwork just a very enjoyable movie

I love anime, and I love full-length anime movies even more. This is an instant classic and a wonderful story.

Great story, but with some tragedy. If you love kids and puppies, try combining their behaviors and you got one humorous film.

I typically don't get into many anime movies. I was a large Dragonball Z fan, but a friend turned me onto this. It was definitely interesting and the ending left me with a few questions and hope for sequels. This could be truly and interesting series.

If you're even remotely a fan of anime but a fan of film, you owe yourself to watch this. a story about family and growing up.

This movie was fantastic. Comparable to a Miyazaki film. Wonderful, emotional story. Beautiful animation.

Loved the story and animation but I wish there was more of a resolution or well thought out ending. Would have worked better as a mini-serious that allowed for more stories throughout the kids' upbringing.

This is a good family story. To some individuals the movie may seem to progress slowly. Very clean animation.

Honestly this movie is my favorite and I just wanted to buy it again after losing my first copy.

This is one of the best anime movie that I've seen in a while. Beautiful art work and a really moving story.

I’ve always loved this movie , when I found out Best Buy had it in Blu Ray, I had to buy it!
