Synopsis
This film is set in a Victorian era that might have been, influenced by the visions of writers such as Jules Verne. As Pazu, the apprentice of the engineer who maintains a mine's elevator machinery, carries his boss's dinner back to the mine, an unconscious pigtailed girl floats down from the sky into his arms. This girl, Sheeta, and her magical levitation-stone pendant hold the key to a mysterious, mythical sky-castle known as Laputa. Sheeta and Pazu must flee from both air-pirates, who seek the sky kingdom for its legendary treasure, and the army, led by a government agent with his own mysterious agenda for Laputa.
The film has really good visual with a plot which would make you go "wow". You don't even have to be an anime fan to enjoy this but can still respect the art of this movie.
The cast was also pretty good, I watched the Disney dub, please don't listen to anyone who says that the dub is bad or the old dub is better because they are wrong. While James Van Der Beek sounded a bit old as Pazu i still enjoyed his performance, Anna Paquin also did well as Sheeta. Other voice actors including Cloris Leachman, Mark Hamil, Richard Dysart, Jim Cummings, John Hostetter, Mandy Patinkin, Michael McShane and Andy Dick were all phenomenal in this movie.
Recommended to all ages.
