The movie of my life

Rating: 10/10 (13 August 2006)

Castle In The Sky is the first film I remember ever watching back when I was about 6 or 7 and it stuck with me all this time. It is the film that set me on the path to becoming what I am now, a writer and director. This film has everything you could want, the story is one that makes you remember what it was like to be a child; you don't see the technicality of the film, you see true people on a great adventure. The score is a towering achievement with real character - a trait that very few composers are capable of pulling off. Hayao Miyazaki is a true genius and we have to add thanks to John Lasseter for pushing Miyazaki's movie outside of their native country.
