The film is one of the most rapturously beautiful that Miyazaki has made, and all the more unsettling because of it.

The pastel palette bespeaks a determined, almost demented lightness.

At 73, Miyazaki's farewell is many things -- gorgeous, beckoning, compassionate. For better and worse, it soars above child's play.
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post

When Jiro dreams, "Wind" soars; when he comes down to earth, the film can feel a bit stiff and murky. But then, that may be the point.

The Wind Rises has the sweep and majesty of a Technicolor Hollywood classic.
