Review of Origin: Spirits of the Past (2006) by Claire L — 28 Aug 2010
I love movies that mix humans with nature, and yes, amazing music from Kokia. I love anime films and this one is as beautiful as Spirited Away and Castle in the Sky. Is recommended!
Plot: Agito by accident revives the girl called Toola who was asleep for a long time (like 300 years). By doing that... will Earth survive? Will the forest forgive the humans for all the damage they have caused? Is a movie that moved me and made me somehow think why we cannot be in peace with Nature and the other animals from our own race (humans are animals too).
Music: Inspiring, beautiful, stunning and powerful. It made me cry and feel that amazing sensation of spirits and love, even forgiveness. Music like this should be in all those epic films and amazing animes/mangas.
To end this short review, 4 stars of 5. I love the voice overs by the way (in english they were amazing as in spanish). I found somehow the film quite short, and I wanted a bit more. The story-telling also forced a bit some things that maybe if the film was a bit longer, could have done better. Still, I enjoyed the movie, loved the music behind it and the beautiful and inspiring story. Nature rocks! Enjoy my review and PEACE TO ALL MY FRIENDS!
