I took Abbey to see The Secret Life of Arrietty. I really liked it.

I enjoy Ghibli's films almost for the lack of action, I think. Kids movies typically just move from action set piece to action set piece, while their movies actually tell a story. It's as if they want to give the kids enough credit to treat them like they are people, and maybe have enough going on in their heads to sit and watch a story unfold.
