4 stars out of 5 -- [P]ersonal, beautiful, and proving one last time, should we need reminding, that Takahata is a master filmmaker of the highest order.

Rating: 4/5 --
Plays out as a wistful, slow-burning romance, underscored with a streak of social satire and animated in exquisitely subtle pastels and watercolours.

It's the beautiful and breathtaking animation that gives The Tale of the Princess Kaguya a luster that is both simple and sophisticated.

Everything in it exudes a special magic that emanates in a slow and leisurely narrative rhythm, that transports us unfailingly to another time. [Full Review in Spanish]

The result is a pleasing, if bloated and simplistic, experience destined to be overpraised because of its lauded creative team.

A melancholic swansong, it blends the director's prior occupations and provides a perfect canvas for a final visual flourish.
