PomPoko

'Pompoko' (1994)




Pompoko is about shape shifting raccoons whose home is being threatened. To prevent this catastrophe from occurring, they all team up to fight the humans and put a stop to the construction.
There isn't much else to say about this movie without revealing the whole plot really. I remember thinking that I found this film boring but, yet again, maybe I'll watch it again. The actual plot and from all the things I remember about it, it would be the kind of thing I would now find funny. Having the raccoons as shape-shifters is a really good idea, makes it that much more interesting and quirky and a lot of fun, especially the carnival thing they do that reminds me of 'Paprika'. So I have now talked myself into wanting to re-watch it. Its now on my 'to buy' list.
