#PRINCESS MONONOKE FULL MOVIE HQ MANUAL#

Joe Hisaishi composed the score while author Neil Gaiman adapted the film's English dub. Appropriately enough, it was also the first Ghibli film to earn a PG-13 rating in the United States. It's notably one of his darkest films, with a somber ambiance and themes, but still features the trademark stunning visuals of a Studio Ghibli production. I mean: “Language = Not Applicable”? if b*stard, b*tch, d*mn, and H*ll don’t count as foul language, there is not much that does.Princess Mononoke (もののけ姫 Mononoke Hime) is an acclaimed 1997 animated film from famed Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki, originally intended to be his last until Spirited Away. I like this website because of the user reviews, but whoever at CSM wrote this review clearly liked the movie too much. His efforts toss them lightly into the air which they find quite entertaining, but their bathrobes rumble a bit and one women jokes to another (off-screen) “Whoops! Better keep that kimono closed tight!” As for language, God’s name is abused a couple of times and b*stard, b*tch, d*mn and H*ll are each used, but only about once each.

The women themselves say that their new life of manual labor is better because “the men no longer bother us…unless we want them to! *tee hee tee hee*” At one point, the main character goes to visit them (not in an inappropriate way) and helps them pump the billows for an iron mine. Many of them have, apparently, been rescued from more disreputable pasts and one man describes them as having been “wasted in the brothels” (a term which is used at least thrice in the movie).

A band of women, who giggle a lot, is depicted in relatively modest kimonos (basically bathrobes) which nevertheless show a little cleavage. As for sexual content, the film is mostly clean although “not applicable” is definitely an inaccurate rating. This all sounds worse than it seems however, as the film’s cartoon nature makes the gore much less pronounced or offensive. Multiple heads are shot off by “demon” arrows, Princess Mononoke sucks mouthfuls of blood out of a wolf god’s wound to clean it, the main character is shot through the chest from which blood flows puddles on the ground as he exerts himself to open a city gate, a man has his arms shot off and pinned to a tree where they dangle for a moment, the decapitated head of a wolf-god bites off a woman’s arm, a ten-ton boargod vomits buckets of blood repeatedly, another boar-god rots away into a reeking carcass in seconds-and that is just the big stuff. This movie shows more blood in it than probably any other movie I have seen. The cast of memorable characters, including strong female leads, offers nuanced depictions of compassion, courage, empathy, and perseverance. While it's probably too much for most younger kids, older tweens will be thrilled and engrossed, and teens are likely to love the mythical story. A character compares soup to 'super donkey piss.' Mention is made of the female rifle makers of Iron Town being former sex workers. There are scenes in which characters are decapitated or lose their limbs in battle. Characters do battle with rifles, swords, bows and arrows, grenades, and poison darts. Although it's an animated fantasy, it has the scope and grandeur of a live-action historical epic and has many battle scenes and other violent sequences, as well as additional gruesome elements. This movie is darker and more intense than many of Miyazaki's other classics.

Parents need to know that Princess Mononoke is a 1997 Hayao Miyazaki-directed anime in which young warrior Ashitaka (voiced by Yōji Matsuda in the original version and Billy Crudup in the English dub), stricken by a deadly curse, must find a way to rescue the forests of the west.
