Letter to Momo

Letter to Momo was a very good film. I enjoyed it thoroughly as it reminded me of Spirited Away. That really helped its case as I LOVE the movie Spirited Away and quite a bit of Japanese animation. Japanese films are really doing themselves a good deal of justice. Some fine cinema work comes out of Japan and I love it. Letter to Momo was expertly paced and had a lot of great comedic value. While there were quite a bit of instances of sadness, you were able to relate to those instances and how Momo was struggling in her new and unfamiliar environments. This film felt a little more real to me versus a Miyazaki film. I guess Miyazaki is kind of the standard I'd compare this to. The characters were very unique and the animation was absolutely beautiful. It felt gritty, real, and down to earth. A little different than Miyazaki, although very similar. It was an expertly made film and I would definitely give it another watch. Most films should be watched more than once to get the full effect.
