This is an award-winning Japanese animation film released in 2006. It is a science fiction romance film. Rented it from the local video store years ago and enjoyed it very much.

Amazon UK price is £2.49 after VAT deducted, it's a bargain especially if your total order qualifies for free shipping. (You can still get free shipping if your order is above £25 right now)

For a single item price + shipping, Zavvi is cheaper £3.45 + £0.99 shipping.

The Australian version of this DVD is selling at JB Hifi for $32.99.

    Is the the next movie after "The girl with the dragon tattoo"? ;)

      Also check out "Five Centimetres per Second" and the newly released "Children Who Chase Lost Voices from Deep Below (Hoshi o ou kodom)" from Makoto Shinkai, acclaimed as the new Miyazaki.

        Grave of the Fireflies. Also another great classic.

        • moocher on 16/01/2012 - 14:04

          Yes very good but very sad. That's cheap too:

          In fact, a lot of the Studio Ghibli classics are really cheap on Amazon UK - about £5 after VAT deducted.

          It was a very sad film but it was also extremely ironic. They painted the allies as cruel and heartless when bombing japan when they themselves killed so so many people and made even more into slavery.

        • Lenneth on 16/01/2012 - 20:45

          Also much of the misfortune that fell on the kids was due to their dad not being there. Their dad in the movie was in the army on an away mission, probably doing to another country's citizens and kids what the allies were shown to be doing.

          You all know the war was over 50 years ago right??? Long time to carry a grudge.

          And I personally don't like this film. It's too sad. I have little ones of my own so I can't watch this sort of thing these days. I just tear up too much.

          You do know how stubborn Japan is as a country still right, its probably not much different to 50 years ago? Just look at what their argument is for whaling every single year.

        • Sxio on 29/01/2012 - 13:27

          You'd put yourself up as worthy of judging an entire country?

          High opinion of yourself much?

      • Cluster on 16/01/2012 - 20:49

        Five Centimetres per Second is almost art, not just a movie. It's simply beautiful.

      • hifer on 16/01/2012 - 22:25

        Agreed, also check out 'Voices of a distant star' by Makoto. Another masterpiece!

    I thought it was one of the Millennium series :p

    Totoro seems to be a big anime fan

    • moocher on 16/01/2012 - 13:57

      Totoro seems to be a big anime fan

      Wouldn't say "big" fan, but I do enjoy some of them, amongst other things like science fiction, fantasy and period dramas…

    I love this movie. I want blu-ray though.

  • awesomness on 16/01/2012 - 15:09

    Will this work on my ps3 from OZ?

  • Twisty on 16/01/2012 - 15:54

    Is it in English or subs?

    • moocher on 16/01/2012 - 16:01

      See updated description.

    PRINCESS MONONOKE !!!!!!

  • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2012 - 18:22

    Both The Girl Who Leapt through Time and Summer Wars are really good. They have some touching moments! I highly recommend.

  • kennansoft on 16/01/2012 - 18:27

    Might be worth putting the price in AUD

  • Cluster on 16/01/2012 - 20:47

    Girl Who Leapt Through Time is a sweet, somewhat touching movie. Definately not 'kiddy'. I greatly enjoyed it after purchasing the DVD from JB Hifi for around $16 over a year ago.

    Went for the £2.49 DVD, left after spending £41.56 :(

    Nice find tho :) Will keep an eye on the BD version..

    I need more movies like this in my life, tbh. I was surprised at how good this movie was when I first watched it.

  • kevinMario on 17/01/2012 - 18:49

    I don't know where you can get your hands on the real action movie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Traveller:_The_Girl_Who_Le…) but if you can, this version is almost as good if not better than the anime version - highly recommended!
