Breathtaking animation and wonderful scenes of historic Japan. Romantic story line. Enjoyed it very much.
 
5 Star Rating  "Anime at its best...for ANY Millennium!"2008-03-26
- Reviewed By penncentral
This is certainly one for the ages! I only started viewing
Anime within the last two years, and was I ever pleased that
my brother recommended this one. The artwork is fantastic,
the storyline bitter-sweet (keep a couple Kleenex handy, just
in case), and the ending appropriate...I don't understand why
some seem to not get it?!? What I don't understand is why no
English dubbing (at least not on the DVD I watched). This is
the only thing I found to be annoyingly distracting...but not
enough so to give Millennium Actress less than 5 stars!!!

Wow, a powerfully moving drama with such an interesting art to it. This is hard to describe, but it follows a man who was a great admirer of a famous actress who has since left the stage. He is granted an interview and relives her famous movies, placing himself into them a the story unfolds
 
5 Star Rating  "Another great masterpice!, a touching story...."2008-02-09
- Reviewed By windam85
This is another great masterpice from Satoshi Kon, he has made 4 movies and one complete animated series, and there all great, he has a very unique touch for expresing his ideas, he likes to create diferent realities, play with symbols, and always give a message, and not something useless or typical, but somethin more pure, more related to daily life... he has a way of showing how "human" we can all be, showing we all have a sweet side, as dark one...
In this movie he shows the life on an actress through her movies, showing what moved her to become an actress and lead her from one movie to another; he shows that there is more than simple motives for what we do, and that somethimes we dont realize how deep impact our desicions have in our lives, and how life goes on so quick, becomes a great adventure, and finally comes to a conclusion, and maybe, only in the end we get to understand most of our steps along the way.
I think its an animation masterpiece, and anyone that likes anime should see it, you wont regret it. and for anyone who is starting to know about anime, you cant go wrong with this movie.
ENJOY!! i hope this has been helpful.
 
5 Star Rating  "Excellent Movie"2007-11-30
- Reviewed By User: AYW84SKC28367
I almost didn't watch this movie at first - it was a little slow getting started and I had other things to do. I'm glad I waited though. It's more than a love story, it's a story of finding meaning in life. There was a nice balance of the humorous and sentimental. I've given this as a gift before and I really recommend it to others.
 
4 Star Rating  "A pleasant surprise"2007-09-27
- Reviewed By User: AZU0LWSMZTIIS
I was somewhat nervous about buying Millennium Actress without first seeing it. This was because I found Satoshi Kon's Perfect Blue a bit "edgy". I was pleasantly surprised to find Millennium Actress a delightful film. It is entertaining, engaging and not at all disturbing. While the ending is not a classically happy one it does not leave you feeling sad or dissatisfied. A good buy for anyone who enjoys quality anime.
 
5 Star Rating  "Praise for the Actress"2007-09-19
- Reviewed By User: A3F2US3RBG1ZA7
Millennium Actress is the first Satoshi Kon film that I've seen, and I have to say I was deeply impressed. If you, like me are picky about the Anime you watch I highly recommend this film.

We meet Chioyoko Fujiwara(the actress) as an elderly woman and travel bakwards into her past as she gives an extreemly rare enterview to enamored journalist Genya Tachibana, who has also come to return to Chioyoko a most precious object.

The viewer is submersed in Chioyoko's memories. we witness the chance meeting in her girlhood that would drive her future. We watch as she is "Discovered" and begins her career Hoping that as she travels from location to location she will be reunited with the mysterious stranger who has touched her heart, and return to him the treassured key that he left in her keeping.

For Chioyoko acting is a means to an end, but the longing in her soul is relflected by the films she chooses. A career filled with haunting romantic dramas mix with her memories of unrequited love. It becomes clear that Chioyoko can no longer distinguish between the two. The ending is sad but touching and made all the more heart renching beause of the knowledge that Tachibana has carried for decades.

I"ve heard this film called depressing. it's very sad that's true but as the credits rolled I found myself uplifed by the sheer beauty of this film.
 
5 Star Rating  "Highly Recommended"2007-07-16
- Reviewed By kerby_delacruz
Devotion, unrequited love, and a search that continues through eternity. A theme of construction, destruction, history, progress, youth, old age, foolishness, wisdom, working, retirement, life, and naturally, death. All of this, plus more is 'Millenium Actress'. What we hold on to, that which we let go, as well as what we regard with deep affection, and that we see as trivial also take part. Flying forward with confidence or stumbling in desperation, this path one travels in life, the course one stays, which is of greater import? Is it the journey or the destination? In the space of a few minutes of film, these ideas are presented, played out and rewound both literally and figuratively. Each and every scene, the setting they're within, helps build and supports the creative ideas of the director Satoshi Kon and his team. This story spreads across a thousand years of time and space. From a mere chance encounter, see how ones' fate may twist and turn with another. It's packed with beautiful backgrounds, a great soundtrack, distinct moments in history (complete with just enough period detail), characters aging, growing, and many years of movie making are all condensed into one remarkable effort. In summary, it's a snapshot. A picture of an ideal, of a promise made. There's much to enjoy, it's an 'easy' movie, yet its characters have depth and substance. It also has more than its share of lighter moments. Satoshi Kon's other works available in the US include: Perfect Blue, Paranoia Agent, and Tokyo Godfathers. He's also one of the five artists that did the layouts for the 2nd Patlabor movie (another incredible animated film). His latest, 'Paprika' should be here on dvd later this year. I hope. Tokyo Godfathers,Perfect Blue,Paranoia Agent - Complete Collection, Patlabor 2 - The Movie (Limited Collector's Edition)
 
5 Star Rating  "Good intro to anime"2007-06-02
- Reviewed By theblusterer
If you are an anime fan, you will enjoy this movie, but may find it unremarkable. If you have never seen anime, or you have not found anime that you liked, this would be an excellent point of entry into the finer side.

Creative and often downright stunning in its imagery, the movie opts to take a meta-meta-meta-drama approach. Okay, I just put in an arbitrary number of "metas" but the point is that the plots of different movies are constantly being woven and blended into the flashback sequence that covers the main story. You'll realize that, yes, it's partly surreal, but at the same time it is not too difficult to pick up on "what really happened."

What it all comes down to is that it's hard to say why, but this is one of those profoundly Japanese animated films that really plays to the strengths of the medium while avoiding all the pitfalls that can turn off Westerners.
 
5 Star Rating  "All the lives of Chiyoko-san"2007-04-05
- Reviewed By kelan2525
This is a very touching movie and an elaborate journey through time. We don't really get to see Chiyoko's inner character that much, but we still end up liking her. The ending is sad, but fits perfectly with the rest of the story. The only problem is that anime newbies might have a problem with the complicated story. But one good thing about anime is that some of it makes you really think. This is one of those anime. I usually rate Hayao Miyazaki's movies high on my favorites list, but this is up there too with the rest of them. Highly recommended!
