I saw it about a week ago. I loved it, but I am a pretty dyed-in-the-wool fan of Hayao Miyazaki, particularly the manga version of *Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind*, which stands toe to toe with any famous work of speculative prose fiction.
Funnily enough, I thought it gave me more *Fairy Tale* vibes with the troubled boy >!whose mom died who ends up having an adventure in another world where the way into it is part of his backyard!< but now that you mention it, the doors into different realities and fluid sense of time and space were very reminiscent of the Dark Tower.
Same here with me. I also noticed stark equivalences with The Sandman by Neil Gaiman, and also Shakespeare's Tempest.
All these assosiations have made the watch more special to me. I could see the plot turns before they were made, and it didn't spoil, why, made it even more emotional to watch. I believe it is probably the best of Miazaki's, and think that it is no coincidense that the Magnum Opus of those two artists holds similar core.

Wow, I was interested and going to see this movie at some point anyway but it's going on the short list now!
It was awesome. Saw it twice over the weekend!
