if you love cats this is definitely your movie
Another adorable Ghibli classic. A great family film, and a cute, heart-filled story. Definitely worth the time to watch and share.
A symbolic, beautiful journey of a teen girl to a magical world of talking cats and magic.
It reminded me a lot of "Alice in Wonderland" or of a dream you once had. I wish the current fantasy genre was more in line with this movie
It was a Lil bit childish, although the art was good enough, but I didn't enjoy watching this one, I didn't like the story.
Pretty light, simple story. Very cute animation but not nearly as deep as other Ghibli films
The music is more memorable than the plot right now. Worth watching as its own...or a good one to watch after Whisper of the Heart.
Beautiful visuals and wonderful story makes this film endearing
Solid anime movie. Simple but entertaining plot.
I never saw this one as a kid but Just watching it this year its truly delightful
