Review snippets: If you thought the art design was beautiful in Spirited Away (and it is, of course), then you must see Howl's Moving Castle. The art design in this film is singular and absolutely breathtaking. It looks not just realistic, but / Happy to have the tin case. Fortunately, it did not have any damageas far as I can tell. This is a fun movie, not the most faithful adaptation to a book, but it's still a fun adventure to watch Read
