Whilst i was watching the film , all the dramatic suspense felt like i was being dragged into through the screen . All the tension and cliffhangers made me feel like i was seeing someone skydive over a sea full of sharks and crocodiles whilst eating a hotdog. Intense right ?!! The animation was fairly slow and lagged behind the sound . The lighting was fairly poor and casted shadows through the class . Its slightly creepy in my opinion that the characters didn't have any teeth. It is a very moving story between the relationship of Sheeta and Pazu and conquering Laputa through all the perseverance and determination. Will earth end or not ?? Over the film i was overflowing with anxiety, fear and happiness . Studio Ghibli is a outstanding company with gripping Anime . This film is one of the oldest and one of the best .
