Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
If this Ghibli creation is smaller in scale than many of the company's films, it certainly doesn't lack for heart or soul. I was swept away in it.

Fan The Fire
FROM UP ON POPPY HILL is frankly stunning, as beautiful a hand-drawn animated feature as you are likely to see.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 3/5 --
The gorgeous score and subtle visual craft save this entry in the Ghibli canon from mediocrity. But given what the studio is capable of, it's not everything fans will be hoping for.

Time Out
Rating: 3/5 --
It ... arrives with the vast reserves of patience, optimism and artistry we've come to expect from this studio.

Guardian
Rating: 4/5 --
The incest-scare subplot never trips up the movie's charm. And there's a haunting reverberance, very Hayao Miyazaki, to the war memories that empower the parental back-stories.

Rating: 4/5 --
You don't watch a Studio Ghibli film so much as sink into it like a hot spring, with groans of delight.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
3.5 stars out of 4 -- The story of a girl grappling with first love, the absence of her parents and the anxieties of an on-rushing future in 1963 Yokohama has all the earmarks of a Miyazaki classic.
Washington Post
Product Description:
Set in Tokyo a few months before the 1964 Olympic Games, FROM UP ON POPPY HILL tells the story of Umi, a teenager whose father died during wartime, and who shoulders much of the responsibility for her family's business in addition to maintaining good grades at school. Her orphaned friend Shun lives in a mansion on the school grounds with dozens of other kids, and when their home is threatened with demolition, Umi and the others do their best to stop the dwelling from being destroyed. FROM UP ON POPPY HILL is the second feature by Goro Miyazaki, the son of acclaimed animator Hayao Miyazaki. The film played at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival.
