IGN had the chance to review The Boy and Heron earlier this year when it first arrived in theaters. Our review of the film was overall the glowing reception you’d expect from a new Miyazaki film. You can find a quick snippet of our take on the film below:
What We Said in Our Review
“The Boy and the Heron sees Hayao Miyazaki looking back at a career of telling fantastical stories full of whimsy and wonder. It’s Studio Ghibli’s most visually complex film to date, while also contemplating the legacy of a legendary filmmaker and the world he is leaving behind. It serves as an ultimate statement from Miyazaki, and the perfect coda to his career.” – Rafael Motamayor
