I've said this before and I'll say it again.
If a movie makes you sad, that doesn't make it a bad movie. That means it's touched some part of you and left an impression.
Grave of the Fireflies is a very depressing movie. It is meant to capture the pain that kids go through during war time as well as showing the hope and resourcefullness of children. From a technical standpoint the movie is beautiful to watch.
Ninja Scroll is another movie I consider to be one of the greats but for another reason entirely. Ninja Scroll has more action and more variety to that action than just about anything else I can think of. To top it off, there are some very nice subtleties to this movie that are easy to overlook because of the extreme nature of the animation. The development of relationships between all the characters is an often overlooked strong point of this movie.
Why hasn't anyone else listed Sword of Truth as one of their worst movies? If you want to see a movie that will leave you asking for a refund on those two hours of your life then this is a title for you to watch. The story just sort of rambles on without much point and slaps random sex or violence (not even well done) in to the story at seemingly random intervals. Even the animation is second rate. This is a BAD movie. Watch it and use it as a yardstick to judge other movies against.

Gullible isn't in the dictionary.
