Ben
Meyers’ rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì
.
Castle in the Sky is a very creative film, tells a great story that is almost re-watchable, and works the 'shrouded in mystery' theme quite well. The film works at a highly imaginative level. It is a wonderful watch overall.

Storyline
The
young girl, Sheeta’s (voice of Anna Paquin) airship is under attack by Dola
(voice of Cloris Leachman). Sheeta crawls out a ship window, tries to scale a
beam, trips, and falls. But, a necklace around her neck gently floats her to a
town where Pazu (voice of James Van Der Beek) lives. Sheeta learns that the
necklace is made of a stone that keeps cities afloat in the upper atmosphere.
Through a series of adventures, Sheeta arrives in Laputa, one of these floating
sky cities.
