A Wisp of a Film

I rented this movie because it is billed as 'the sequel to Whisper of the Heart,' a movie that I adored. I did not find this to be true at all. In addition, it is much more thinly plotted and much less emotionally rich than Whisper of the Heart. It feels like an overly long episode of a TV show rather than a feature film. Plus all the fat jokes were, in my opinion, rather distasteful, and Disney dubbed the American release instead of offering the viewer the choice of dubbing or subtitling like they typically do with their Studio Ghibli releases. I'd only recommend this movie to Studio Ghibli completists.
