Review of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984) by Kyle20Ellis — 01 Apr 2022
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind doesn't quite make my top five favourite Ghiblis but it certainly makes my top 10. Why? Because it is a stunning film. The animation is absolutely breathtaking, the colours are gorgeous and the backgrounds are amazing.
Another strength is the music which gives a sense of charm, quaintness and poignancy. The story is highly imaginative and simple, there is not a single wasted moment, and the film is well paced. The characters are wonderful too, the protagonist is very easy to relate to, and this is helped by the top notch voice acting.
Overall, a wonderful film with stunning visuals and inspired imagination.
