Anime at its very best

Rating: 10/10 (15 March 2002)

I watched Laputa for the first time in the 80s when I was still a child, but now watching it when I'm an adult really put things into perspective. The plot is very well written, but the characters' development is what contributes to the story's overall excellence. If you seek an anime capable of captivating your heart, Laputa is the one to get. This is one of those films that you do not fast forward for there are no boring scenes. Not a film for people that seek a hidden message behind every movie, but rather one you can rent to watch with your girl/man or family on a night in.
Not recommended for children under 7, since they will not appreciate the plot nor should they pick up a rock and jump off the roof trying to float.
