Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2006)

Young girl Sofi was the owner of a hat shop. One day she encountered handsome Howl who had been being chased by a evil witch. At once she had a good impression on Howl. However the evil witch cursed her and changed her into an ugly old woman. She thought that she could not live in the home any more and left. With the help of a kind straw man, she came into Howl's moving castle. An exciting travel began.
There is deep humanity in every Japanese master Miyazaki Hayao's works. To my joy, his works always are bright and uplifting. This one also is not an exception. Although I would like to see true man's show, as to animation his works are my top choice. His long time partner---Joe Hisaishi brought me wonderful music again.
One of the best animation movies in 2004. 8/10
