a seaworthy effort, both as an impressive debut from someone who has never previously worked in animation, and as a fine (if somewhat bewildering) piece of synoptic adaptation.

Reviews for Tales from Earthsea
Trazendo diálogos ridículos em sua obviedade, sofre ainda com a falta de ritmo imposta pela inexperiência de seu diretor, só escapando do desastre absoluto graças ao esforço técnico de sua brava (e aqui desperdiçada) equipe.
Something of a disappointment, given Studio Ghibli's track record, although Le Guin fans can probably go ahead and add an extra star.
It begins all at sea, and, figuratively speaking, pretty much stays there.
Miyazaki Jr has a long way to go before he can hold a candle to his father's work, but Tales From Earthsea still carries the Ghibli mark of quality.
Though not yet up to Hayao Miyazaki’s lofty standards, this sword-and-sorcery yarn at least shows his boy is on the right track. Makes you wonder what he’ll do when not strait-jacketed by someones else mythology.
Hardly a groundbreaking work, but still a worthy addition to the singular Ghibli canon.
Flashes of beauty and a fascinating subtext let down by muddled plotting and uninspired design.
The set pieces make this well worth watching while director Goro Miyazaki shows he's truly his father's son.
