"The Castle of Cagliostro" has one of those really kitschy '70s scores, which I found endearing right from the start; but it proved to be a fun caper flick throughout. Miyazaki weaves a classic adventure using all of the great elements at his disposal; a roguish thief, a centuries-old fortress and a fabled treasure in everyone's sights. The castle becomes a playground for cool set pieces and well-staged action.
I really enjoyed this, and there's some beautiful animation here (obviously). Even something as simple as a car crossing a bridge is easy on the eyes.
7/10
