Watch movie theater From Up On Poppy Hill Movie Online Streaming Megavideo Free The setting is Yokohama in 1963, and the filmmakers lovingly bring to life the bustling seaside town, with its misty harbor, sun-drenched gardens, shops and markets, and some of the most mouthwatering Japanese home-cooking set to film. The story centers on an innocent romance beginning to bud between Umi and Shun, two high school kids caught up in the changing times. Japan is picking itself up from the devastation of World War II and preparing to host the 1964 Olympics - and the mood is one of both optimism and conflict as the young generation struggles to throw off the shackles of a troubled past. While the children work together to save a dilapidated Meiji era club house from demolition, their tentative relationship begins to blossom. But - in an unexpected twist that parallels what the country itself is facing - a buried secret from their past emerges to cast a shadow on the future and pull them apart.

From Up On Poppy Hill Movie Review:
This is a gentle film, hand-drawn with irresistible colors, that exudes nostalgia in a lovely way. G. Allen Johnson-San Francisco Chronicle Although simpler and less mysterious than the great Hayao Miyazaki movies, the gently melancholic From Up on Poppy Hill is still a must see at a time when family entertainment is too often synonymous with blandness. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor Is there a Japanese word that combines "pretty," "demure" and "boring"? Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune Both genuinely emotional and blithely engaging. John Anderson-Newsday The film maintains an optimistic tone without succumbing to nostalgia, and as always with Studio Ghibli, the company Miyazaki cofounded in the 80s, the hand-drawn animation is gorgeous. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader Your kids may well fall in love with it, if you help them find it. Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune Like his old man, the younger Miyazaki favors limited character animation and luscious water colors. Unfortunately, he lacks his father's storytelling skills. Glenn Lovell-CinemaDope Rest assured, the younger Miyazaki has clearly earned his stars, as Poppy Hill offers just the same intimate, ultimately life-affirming kind of storytelling we've come to expect from the family name. Cammila Collar-TV Guide's Movie Guide [A] study of how the tolls of war reverberate through generations. Mark Dujsik-Mark Reviews Movies Poppy Hill is more a short story than a feature, almost unbelievably optimistic, but it offers a surprising, innocent window on an era usually associated with nuclear anxieties, cultural neuroses, and juvenile delinquents. Sean Axmaker-Seattle Weekly Not the most enthralling Studio Ghibli animated feature, but the restrained story of a boy, a girl, and their beloved high school campus, circa 1963 in Yokohama, nevertheless creeps up on us emotionally in the best Ghibli fashion. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express Sunny days, blue skies, and rippling blue waters lined with greenery...Plain nice, and there's nothing wrong with that. Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews The studio's stunning textures and vibrant details still give Poppy Hill that ethereal quality sure to mollify nostalgic Ghibli fans, but its strengths are fastidiously undone by a predictable and underwhelming plot. Manori Ravindran-National Post A full awareness that it's kind of a cheap melodrama (one of the characters even says so) doesn't change the fact that it is but the young Miyazaki's visual palette is notably beautiful and the voice work is strong throughout. Brian Tallerico-HollywoodChicago.com From Up On Poppy Hill is at once old-fashioned and innovative, an exquisite evocation of Yokohama in 1963 that dares to treat teenagers with both gravity and grace. Michael Sragow-Orange County Register The film shows the younger Miyazaki going off in a new, slightly older-skewing direction while still firmly working in the gentle hand-drawn style with which the old man has been dazzling filmgoers for decades. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press Based on the jolly, jazzy score that keeps From Up on Poppy Hill lively, the latest from Studio Ghibli appears to have missed its calling as a Broadway musical. Matt Pais-RedEye With its modest story and lack of cute magical furballs, From Up on Poppy Hill is a tad too uneventful and prosaic to match the best of Studio Ghibli but it's lovely all the same. Jason Anderson-The Grid
