Miyazaki loves his evil force being this oil like sludge in his films and in this one it takes on a worm like evil.

In Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind it's as blatantly obvious as in Princess Mononoke; the film is literally about nature and the environment.

Both sides have evilness and both sides have goodness and Miyazaki creates a main character that doesn't really judge, but rather helps to solve the conflict, although he's constantly repressed by his curse.

Miyazaki and Ghibli finally take on the subject matter of war and violence , but it's failed attempt to sympathize with all views leaves you with a film so broad that it doesn't care about anyone or anything.

Though about half way through the movie when everything is going right , it begins to turn into some horribly cheesy message about animals and humans befriending each other and sharing the world.
