Review of Brave Story (2006) by Eneeli M — 03 Nov 2008

Brave Story is one of the best animated movies I've ever seen. Gonzo meshed together 2D & 3D animation brilliantly. The storyline is simple enough - Boy Goes Off to Change His Destiny & Learns Many Lessons In The Process.

But it flows along smoothly, although I find some parts rather rushed. Like most Animes, there isn't a real antagonist you could truly hate because everyone has a justified reason for what they do. This movie is about growing up and making sacrifices when you have to.

I felt like crying when the antagonist died but found his own heaven in the process.

The ending was left hanging even though it's technically a "Happily Ever After". I want a sequel!
