Description

Castle in the Sky is a timeless story of courage and friendship, with stunning animation from acclaimed Academy Award®-winning director Hayao Miyazaki. This high-flying adventure begins when Pazu, an engineer's apprentice, spies a young girl, Sheeta, floating down from the sky, held aloft by a glowing pendant. Both Sheeta and Pazu are searching for the legendary floating castle, Laputa, and they vow to travel there together to unravel the mystery of the luminous crystal. But their quest won't be easy, as soon they are being pursued by greedy air pirates, the military, and secret government agents, who all seek the power Sheeta alone can control.

    As much as I love this movie this version of the movie is not the one I was hoping for. I would’ve loved to see the reworked and better done version where the score was re-worked. I miss the soundtrack that was in my childhood and the audio parts that made this movie funny in some parts are also missing. Hopefully a someone sees this and one’s something about it because I’m very disappointed so far.
  • Music Score?

    Does anybody know if this is the version with the updated music score, or the original one? I know Joe Hisaishi reworked the music for Disney's 2003 dub, but Disney also reverted to the old score for some subsequent releases.
  • Another hit by Studio Ghibli!

    So quit yer belly-achin’! I didn’t expect to like The Castle In The Sky as much as I do, but it’s simply amazing. It would make an incredible platform game, just the perfect combo of steampunk sci-fi, action, adventure and pure love. Beautiful with the usual cast of totally loveable characters. WOO-HOO! (I CANNOT believe I’ve spent 240.00 on Ghibli films! Oh wait, YES I CAN)
  • Classic, one of the best
