I love anime so i bought this dvd this dvd is perfect for my kids i love this dvd whisper of the heart has a lovely story to it if you love storys you should buy this dvd
Whisper of the Heart is a strange film, that you dont see very often. It is a little gem, mainly overlooked by most Ghibli fans, but, in my opinion, is well worth watching anyway. The storyline is neat, about a girl going through junion high, struggling with her exams, being asked out by boys, but all the while reading books and writing lyrics to popular songs songs. She has a big imagination, and when she finds the same name in all of her books check out cards, she starts to wander what kind of a person she is. Eventually, under unusual circumstances, they meet, and sweetly (if a little predictably) they fall in love. The animation is superb in Whisper of the Heart. It may not be up to the standard of Spirited Away, but for the time it was made (1995) it is still very impressive, and up to the standard of all the Studio Ghibli films- utterly breath taking. Don't expect any action packed scenes with epic explosions and battles, but the animation does fit the movie very well. It is a quiet movie, which deserved the animation it got- wonderfull. The English dubbing is decent too! The voice acting fits the characters really well too, which adds to the whole feel of the film- it is comfertable to watch, with lots of scenes you can relate to, like the scenes where the girl's family are interacting with eachother. The music is unexpected but fits well with the atmosphere of the movie, and I like how the song "Country Roads" is a constant theme through the film, wheather it is just background music or part of the actuall story. The DVD has some decent extras, if a little limited. There is the Baron's Story's background artwork, which is beautiful and well put together, if a little repetative. There are also storyboards, which are very interesting to see, trailers for the film and trailers for other Studio Ghibi films, making a nice little package. If I were to have any critisisms, it would be that the character designs may not be as imaginative as some of the other Studio Ghibli films. Also, some of the bits in the film are a little bit too cutesy for me, like at the end. This film is not for everyone. Those who like cute films, may enjoy this more than action and horror seekers. But overall, I think the good bits outweigh the bad bits dramatically, and even with those little niggles, this film is still incredibly enjoyable, if you have the right kind of taste for these things. Whisper of the Heart can be enjoyed by age, but I think this film apeals mostly to teenage girls, who can relate to the situation of the heroine. This film, Whisper of the Heart, is overall a very heart warming film, and if you are a Studio Ghibli or anime fan, this is a must buy. If you want a film to cheer you up right away, this is the film to do it.Read full review
Whisper of the Heart is a heart warming film about a schoolgirl who likes to read books but finds that a guy keeps taking out the same books as her, shes also working on a song too (country roads) She dreams of being a writing and finds that guys can be very annoying.. but whats the guy like who keeps checking out all the same books as her? This is a really nice film, its heart warming and 'awww' however i did find that it went on for quite some time though but its worth a watch as its good fun.
