3/5
Princess remains technically brilliant and never less than compelling, albeit in a queasy, troubling fashion. Its images rattle in the memory like unclean ghosts. Go to Full Review

3/5
Although morally ambiguous, with a message that is at best confused, this is a striking debut from a talented director. Go to Full Review

Princess is rarely a dull watch, but it doesn't pack enough of an emotional punch. Go to Full Review

All in all I am very impressed with the command and restraint Anders Morgenthaler shows with his movie. Go to Full Review

It's very controlled and deliberate and gives the illusion that it has something to say, but its point is a bit unclear. Go to Full Review

B-
...a somber, sad and, in the end, hopeful animation that is a kindred spirit to such Japanese anime as Tokyo Godfathers in look, if not feel. Go to Full Review

09/22/2018 The main problem with Princess could be, that some viewers might not like that such a mature plot was realized as an animated movie. For others, who are intrigued by its style, Princess is a thoughtfully crafted revenge movie. It focuses on its two main characters, August and Mia, who both suffer from how the porn industry used Mia's mother until her untimely death. Thus, the movie deals with revenge, sexual oppression, and grief, making it a tough watch. How the movie deals with these topics and how the characters are presented is exceptionally well handled. Never are any simplistic characterizations and messages used to tell the plot, which gives the viewer the possibility to really think about the characters' motivations.

A psychological drama about a one man's path to neither self destruction and redemption. See more 04/16/2016 Disgusting and disturbing enough to make me create an account and tell you all not to add to the revenue and to tell you it's disgusting and disturbing... strong BS in this movie that anyone with half a heart would want to skip. Only adding half a star because that's the minimum, though it deserves less. See more 11/07/2015 Muy buena!! Gran pelicula de animación, bien contada y desarrollada, nunca pierde ritmo, atrapa y cuenta una historia complicada que no creo que se hubiera podido llevar a cabo de otra manera que esta! Grandes escenas de video que aportan mayor realismo! See more 11/07/2015 This film holds it own amongst the Japanese Anime crowd. A chilling story that will captivate you emotionally.
