What prevents Battles Without Honour and Humanity from being a true masterpiece is its confused, muddled plot.

Humour, heart and high-level animation all combine to make ‘Spirited Away’ an overwhelmingly rewarding and endlessly magical experience.

A tough film with many unlikable characters but a thrilling tale of gangster revenge that has lost none of its force over the past 50 years.

‘Yellow Fangs’ is an excellent creature feature that may have slipped under the radar for many audiences. Hopefully, Sanada’s burgeoning reputation worldwide might mean that this changes soon.
