Another great Ghibli film. Story is great. Voice acting is superb. Animation is top tier. Soundtrack is super memorable. Worth watching.
Fantasy adventure, a young boy and girl who search for a mythical castle alongside pirates and the military, very imaginative, great story
Love it. Well told story. Loveable characters. Fun setting. It's a good time.
The two main characters (and the pirates!) are so much fun. A meaningful story, as well.
Of all the Hayao Miyazaki animations, this one has in my opinion the most amazing and memorable score. With a great story to boot!
Just another masterpiece out of Studio Gibli and Miyazaki's great mind.
A grand adventure in an unique work. Great movie for the kids and adults
A masterpiece. Totally artistic and an epic story. Lovable characters with strong personalities. I can’t get enough of this movie
When I watch this film, it gives me a weird feeling. Like I’m in a dream or something. Like my reality isn’t right. Still a great film.
A lot lighter than Miyazaki's later work but still contains sobering themes. I got more out of it on the second watch. Beautiful soundtrack.
