Yuizaki's Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind Tv Review
Rated:
This movie is one of the first works of Miyazaki and apparently, he had no idea how to create a good movie. His ideas a superb but he couldn't put them into one single material. If he re-makes Nausicaa now he would certainly create much better one, but he was not used to film production at the time. However, while being an entertainment film, this movie was able to deliver its underlying concept. Movies often have a concept to deliver besides entertainment value, and in this case, it is about the protection of nature and animals. In fact, the movie won a recommendation by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF, or the World Wildlife Fund, the most respected NGO for the protection of the environment).

Tama-Neko's Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind Tv Review
Rated:
Nausicaa is simply one of those timeless movies that many (including myself) would consider to be a classic of Japanese Animation. It's interesting because it is Miyazaki's first full length movie, and the themes that are prevelant throughout the story reoccur time and time again in his other works. His penchant for strong female leads can be seen in characters like San from Mononoke Hime or Chihiro from Spirited Away; his views on the corruption/destruction of earth's natural resources and the futility of war return in Mononoke Hime and Howl's Moving Castle; his belief in the bonds of family and friendship are characterized in My Neighbor Totoro.
