Big ambitions inspire great designs; little things bring them to life. Nausicaa has both in abundance.

Chicago Reader - Unnamed
The action sequences are as suspenseful as any in the director's career; the most impressive scenes, though, may be the slower ones, which consider how humanity might evolve after driving itself to near extinction.

The New Yorker - Michael Sragow
Hayao Miyazaki’s animated adventure, from 1984, is a magnificent anomaly—a rousing vision of scorched earth.
