- Studio Ghibli films are beloved for many reasons: the strange and fantastical creatures, the richly animated worlds, the oddball humour. However, it’s the life-affirming, humanist sensibility of the films that is most essential to Ghibli’s lovableness, the foundation from which all its other great cinematic qualities can sprout.

The first 3D CGI-animated film from Studio Ghibli, and hopefully the last 3D CGI-animated Studio Ghibli film. Gorō Miyazaki shows he knows all the tropes and ingredients to make a good Ghibli film, but the film lacks the substance of one. There are some cool ideas about the feeling when your parents stop noticing or caring about you, which only mak...
Another unfortunate Gorō dud. Write it off as inexperience, or a series of books that are impossibly difficult to adapt. Whatever it may be, there's no denying that Tales From Earthsea gets too busy trying to mix and match plot points from different books that it forgets to tell a coherent story. There are some good thematic moments here, but they ...
This is technically a TV movie meant as a more cheaply-made animation exercise for some of the younger staff members at Ghibli, Ocean Waves could have easily passed as the work of a senior animator at the studio with a much larger budget. There is not a hint of magic or whimsy in the story, but it still has the subtle melancholy and drama that the ...
Hiromasa Yonebayashi makes his directorial debut with a film that feels too much like an attempt to replicate the glory days of the studio rather than a fresh new voice trying out something new. The film is set in a world where tiny people known as "borrowers" live undetected alongside humans, "borrowing" things from them when they need it. We foll...
The one Gorō worth watching, this is a more straightforward drama compared to other entries in this list. From Up on Poppy Hillfollows two boarding schoolers in the early 1960s as they fight to save a clubhouse from being demolished, while the rest of the city reckons with the legacy of WWII and the upcoming 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. The film ...
The fact that this is still one of the good Ghibli films goes to show how excellent their output is. The Cat Returns is the rare Ghibli film that's a spin-off of another one of their previous films, more specifically Whisper of the Heart, focusing on a minor character from that film. Hiroyuki Morita is, unfortunately, no Miyazaki or Yoshifumi Kondo...
A more subtle film than previous Ghibli films, Yonebayashi's second directorial effort nevertheless serves as a fascinating elegy for the studio, before Miyazaki announced his comeback and he let his son make a terrible CGI film. When Marnie Was Thereis a rewarding story about accepting the past in order to move forward and follows a withdrawn 12-y...
Without a doubt, Ghibli's kiddiest film to date, but far from its worst. Ponyo is a mix between The Little Mermaid and Pinocchio, the film follows a goldfish girl named Ponyo who decides she wants to become a human after a fateful encounter with a boy named Sōsuke. The film is absolutely delightful, with enough bright colors and charming characters...
Visually, one of Ghibli's most stunning features, yet one that feels a bit redundant given how many of their films share the same themes and do them better. The titular castle is absolutely striking, a remarkable feat of animation filled with excruciating detail, and the film's depiction of magic is one of the most unique depictions in cinema. The ...
Isao Takahata's adaptation of the popular Nono-chan manga feels like a slice-of-life version of Totoro, exchanging the fairy-tale creatures for hilarious vignettes of the everyday life of a regular family. What makes this special is the way the film is animated to look like newspaper comic strips, using the medium to tell a story in a way that othe...
