Romance and yet...

it's romantic and soppy, basically every romantic's dream tale but sweet as well, to the point of being absolutely nauseatingly so. I liked it because of that romantic basis but what struck me about it was that it all seemed so obligatory - and another thing, although beautiful, Howl was a narcissist, hence an absolute DICK! but he did change close to the end of the film. Grudgingly i have to admit this was a good movie. the plot was almost flawless. but it could have been better - much better.

Shouldn't have read the book first

I read the children's novel this film was based on before I saw the movie, BIG mistake. The movie diverged in a big way from the book with the war that took place in the movie; I felt the movie was too preachy in its anti-war message. The animation was great, but my thinking kept dragging me back to the book so I have to say that this movie was average. If you haven't read the book, you may come to think of this as a great movie.

WoW
