A great adventure...

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 2002)

This is a great and powerful tale about two young kids searching for the mysterious and elusive "castle in the sky." A certainly thrilling adventure for many people of any age. The storyline is very-well thought out, and there's never a dull moment in this two-hour feature movie.

What captured my attention was the beautiful music that certainly depicts the quest, action, and heart-felt moments in this adventure from the haunting music of the robot's attack, to the great symphonic and orchestrated melody of the search for Laputa.
The animation may seem a bit subpar in the eyes of recent anime-lovers, but it's still marvelous to watch compared to many other animated series/movies of the 80's. If you enjoy excitement and aerial adventure, then I really do recommend that you see Laputa: Castle in the Sky.
