Castle in the Sky (NR, 1986)

When i first watched this movie when i was about 8 i really liked and i still really do. But both me and my parent's where very surprised about how vilont it was. I'm also surprised common sense thinks this movie is iffy for 6! are u joking?! A 6 year old would be scared and have nightmares! All the vilonce includes: Killing, gun shooting and much more. Also kids fall from very high heights and almost are killed several time by gun, exploseves, and pirates. There is also a very intense scene where the main characters uncle holds up a gun and shoots of her pigtails and almost her ears. The up side to all of this is it has good messages and rolemodels. Such as Sheta and Potsu. Sheta is a very courages girl who is about 10 or 11 years old. Who will stop at nothing to follow her dreams, be free, and help a person or thing in need. Also Potsu risks his life many times to save his friend sheta's. The positive messages of this movie is: Be carful wherever you go, and sometimes you must put your friends before yourself so everything can work out in the end. I recomend this to all kids 9 and up!

It's good for younger children, they would definietly love it but for older kids, it might be kinda boring. Still overall good movie, not exactly violent but still OK.

miyazaki's movies for younger children (totoro, ponyo, kiki's delivery service) have been huge favorites and my kids enjoyed this film as well. BUT it was startlingly violent--swarming armies, explosions, gunfire, people falling and almost falling to certain death...my kids both spent large parts of the movie biting their nails and cringing. the beautiful animation and lovely musical score were just not worth all the violence for our family.

I love it. There's violence and death. The movie is very heartfelt that you forget about all of its faults. It's a very good movie. Most of the people aren't good role models, but Pazu and Sheeta care about each other, and always look out for each other.

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE MOVIE WHEN I WAS LITTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERY KID 5+ SHOULD SEE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Besides the shooting and the girl breaking the glass on her dads head its ok for kids 8 and up

this heartwarming tale is like the best anime ive seen...other then naruto...but i really like this movie....the music makes me want to cry and the story is awesome....there is some mild volence but its just gun fire and a robot getting killed....and the orphan boy gets nicked on the cheek by a speeding bullet but other then that its a movie for everyone.

Miyazaki has done it again. He has made another masterpiece. It is very good if you are 7 or older. You should see it. It is a little violent. The main character's hair braids are shoot off her head. There are lots of guns but it has a happy ending and the crystal is cool.

i was surprised by how vilont the movie was. Most of hameasakie's films are kid friendly but this one certainly wasnt. There is a lot of shouting, vilonce, peril, and a scene were a grown man almost killed a 10 year old girl on purpose with a gun. but it is a good movie and it is a good movie for all kids ages 10 and up. BUT NOT FOR 9!!!!!!!
