Howl's Moving Castle (2004)
Directed by Hayao Miyazaki
Written by Hayao Miyazaki
IMDB
Another superb movie from Miyazaki. This film focuses on a young girl who is cursed by a witch and is transformed into an old lady. She finds her way onto Howl's moving castle and bonds with the idiosyncratic characters aboard. Howl is a sorcerer, who has had his heart stolen by a demon.
Now this is a very weird movie, which is pretty typical for a Miyazaki film. The first two-thirds are great, but the last 1/3 can get a bit confusing at times. I'm still not completely sure as to what was going on at times. Still, a fun movie. Would be great for children. The scarecrow is pretty awesome, by the way.
7.5/10
