Synopsis
One night, Pazu spies a young girl floating down from the sky, held aloft by a glowing pendant. Her name is Sheeta and she is in search of the legendary floating castle, Laputa. Pazu and Sheeta embark on a journey together to discover the castle’s location and to unravel the mystery of Sheeta’s luminous crystal. But their quest won’t be easy, as soon as they are being pursued by greedy air pirates, the military, and secret government agents, who all seek the power that Sheeta alone can control. Castle in the Sky is a timeless story of courage and friendship, with stunning animation from acclaimed Academy Award®-winning director Hayao Miyazaki. Featuring the voices of Anna Paquin, James Van Der Beek, Cloris Leachman, Mark Hamill, Mandy Patinkin, and more.

James (Schaffrillas)Jun 13, 2022The fact that no one is scared of heights in Ghibli films is beyond me. Pazu really just be hanging on the side of a castle thousands of feet in the air like it’s a walk in the park.

Castle in the Sky has one of the best scores in an animated film. I remember when I was little, after the first couple of times I watched this film, I would always look up at a big billowing cloud and wonder if Laputa was really in there. Sometimes I would play the music in…

AHHH WATCH IT ITS REALLY GOOD!!!!!
Jackson likedCastle in the Sky6/10 A good Studio Ghibli film but not the best. There’s not too much depth to the characters and their relationship and the plot was pretty predictable. Although it was still an enjoyable watch and the animation was great.
Doodooboy lovedCastle in the SkyAnimation back in the day was hitting. Unique story and characters. Miyazaki’s animation always feels so conforming and fun.

Metacritic
Its detailed fantasy world, including a dark turn-of-the-century mining town and candy-colored futuristic space bikes, is as alluring as any live-action film. Yet this two-hour story about a lost princess, a flying island and space pirates is liable to strain the patience of adults and the attention spans of children.
Caryn James
The New York Times
Viewed from a purely narrative perspective, Castle in the Sky is a fun, engaging two hours. Miyazaki knows how to keep things moving without belaboring certain scenes. He doesn’t speak down to his audience and isn’t afraid to mix in exposition with action.
