  • Editorial Review:
    To lovers of romance, there is nothing unusual in the story of how Amechiyo, an exiled prince, meets the exotic and mysterious girl, Tanuki, in the forest and becomes smitten with her beauty. However, when he discovers she is actually the Princess Raccoon, "usual" takes a holiday, as the unlikely pair fall in love, despite everyone's warnings. When tragedy strikes after the celebration of the Princess's un-birthday, only true love can save her!
    Legendary director Seijun Suzuki?s 50-year career reaches a milestone with this surreal musical comedy about love, deception and soda-water rain. Stirring up a broth of Kabuki, opera, animation, and adding dashes of pop culture, theater staging and rap music, Princess Raccoon is an eclectic masterpiece. Starring Zhang Ziyi ("Memoirs of a Geisha", "House of Flying Daggers") in the title role, this enchanting movie celebrates the sheer joy of love and film.

    Princess Raccoon Reviews:
    Ziyi in a Japanese flim 5 Star Review
    2009-06-20 - Funny story and music,very good video quality(looks like blu-ray),colorful image.You will see Ziyi singing and dancing.Collection for Asian movie lover and Ziyi's fans

    Ziyi lovely as usual -- 5 Star Review
    2009-05-07 - and this film -- quite pretty in itself -- is great fun in every respect. And its various "meanings" begin to reveal themselves with repeated viewings.

    And the "Making of" extras -- which are quite extensive, from her first meeting with the director to the tearsome film wrap-up -- are also English-subtitled in this release.

    Charming all around.


    Great Fantasy Movie, Post-Punk 5 Star Review
    2008-08-01 - Loved this movie. I'm a westerner, spent time in Japan, loved this live-action fairy-tale love story. Even though the writer/director is somewhere in his 80's, he has a funny, surprising and high-energy style that will enchant you. If you're used to Disney and Pixar, maybe you should give it a miss, because it's off-beat and surprising--but I'm buying a copy for myself--loved it.

    Too exotic 2 Star Review
    2008-01-27 - I'm part Japanese but I found this musical is so alien to my American-bred sensibilities that it seemed very strange and creepy. It colorful in a gaudy way with very cartoonish qualities. At least, it has the adorable Zhang Ziyi at the center (she's speaks mostly Chinese in this Japanese film).

    The best part of the DVD for me was the behind-the-scenes featurette which focused on Zi. I was surprised that she switched to English a few times when talking with her Chinese/Japanese translator. And there's a "cute" moment when a little girl, an extra, speaks to Zi in English (you'll understand the quotes after seeing it).

    This one, you might want to rent first before deciding to purchase.
