Better than Expected

Warning: Spoilers
Although not quite up to par to Miyazaki efforts, Tokyo Godfathers surprised with it's good story lines, entertainment values, and background animation settings.Lighting effects were very well done in many scenes while motion maybe not as much so but above satisfactory. Living in Japan before, maybe I'm a bit partial to seeing the wonderful wintry backdrops of Tokyo, but the movie had more going for it. I enjoyed each character's own story-lines and how they were interwoven and brought together. (spoiler) One loose end that was never brought up though was the old-man who died, what was his identity? Thought they would fill that in. The ending was very well and contained a great "wow" moment that might've been a bit over the top but nonetheless fitting.
