Okko: Why are you... floating?
Uribo: [to himself] Oh boy, this is gonna be good!

User Reviews

Okko's Inn Rivals Spirited Away. It's Outstanding!

Ok, I don't really make reviews on movies I love, but I'm making an exception for this one. The story of Okko's Inn will glue you to your screen. The plot of this movie has this sense of calm and excitement. I was amazed on how the twist of the story entered the scene, that I literally clapped my hands momentarily.

I normally know where the story of films I watch take me, but for Okko's Inn I was caught by surprise. I love how the plot took my enthusiasm to watch it higher and higher, then all of a sudden, the great Twist comes in. It's like fireworks everywhere.

I love this film that it tops my list, above Spirited Away.

Lastly, if you have shallow tears, a hankie or a tissue will come in handy.
