Short Summary
The story starts off with a mysterious girl
named Sheeta, who floats from the sky lands on the earth. A boy named
Pazu finds her. The pirates and the government army are pursuing Sheeta
because of the mysterious pendant she is wearing. Pazu and Sheeta then
start their adventure of looking for the Sky Castle: Laputa.
Review and thoughts
This is one of the most popular
movies created by Miyazaki. I think Sheeta is probably the coolest looking
character ever created by Miyazaki. I don't think I need to say anything
more, Laputa is just one of those nearly perfect and typical
pieces of Japanese anime artwork. And Laputa is also one of those anime
you won't get tired of watching. You could watch it ten or twenty times
and still be hooked. I don't know why all the Miyazaki movie series always
have really really cool and good theme songs. Laputa's songs are just
unbelievably good. Anyways, if you have never watched this movie.... well, you know what to
do.
