The Boy and the Heron, the latest (and perhaps not the last) feature film from the mind of Hayao Miyazaki and the animation gurus at Studio Ghibli, comes stateside this week after debuting in Japan earlier this year. IGN's The Boy and the Heron review awarded it a 9 out of 10, calling it "Studio Ghibli's most visually complex film to date" and the "most emotionally raw Miyazaki has ever gotten."
