The Boy and the Beast - Mamoru Hosoda
Another lovely and charming Hosoda movie. It lacks the kinetic energy of Summer Wars and the sensibility of Wolf Children but it's still a beautiful tale. Once again family dynamics and conflicts take the foreground and his films become very accessible to relate cause of it. It gets a tad too melodramatic as it progresses and tries to jumble several different storylines. I would have preferred a simpler story, one which focused solely on the Beasts, the Gods and it's interaction with the kid.
