1979 animated action movie
Rating: 15/20
Plot: Lupin tries to steal something from the titular castle.
This Hayao Miyazaki feature-length debut has lots going for it including wildly inventive action sequences, really cool characters, and an intriguing plot created by this mishmash of conflicts involving thieves, spies, criminals, and the law enforcement. I didn't know anything about this character going in, but coming out, Lupin, along with his bearded but no-eyed machine-gunning sidekick and the spy who is apparently an on-again-off-again lover and the guy with the sword, is a character I'd love to investigate further.
