I saw it last night with my spouse. It was good, we laughed at a bunch of the visual gags.

It's not as good as Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which is the obvious comparison, but it's legitimately fun.

Thanks for reminding me to watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit again. It's one of, like, 5 DVD/Blu-Rays I own, because of how excellent it is.

What are the other 4 movies you own?

Princess Mononoke & Spirited Away (and also Kiki's Delivery Service because it was a package. Not that it's bad, but not as important to me as the other two)

Into the Spider-Verse, for breaking away from the 3D animation movie style

I'll have to rewatch Princess Mononoke; I haven't seen it since it was in the theater in the US. I remember not liking it as much as the other Miyazaki I've seen, but I'm a different person today.

it was the first Miyazaki I saw, in college, and it blew me away. I still occasionally listen to Joe Hisaichi's soundtrack.

I hope one of them is Doctor Strangelove

ooh good call, I should fix that.

Agree. Seemed more like something that should go direct to streaming instead of big screen.

Decent, not amazing.

I actually thought the big screen worked well for it. It was cramming a lot of background detail in that was fun to see.
