The Celestial Railroad is a fantastic journey of a boy, Giovanni, in a dreamscape created into a colorful full-dome CG animation picture with inspiring background music. Based on a story written in the early 20th century, KAGAYA, a digital fine artist, has breathed new life into the unique imaginary world using creativity and precise astronomical knowledge. The starry sky is depicted as the Celestial Field made up of a river, a field of silver grasses, flowers, birds, survey towers, railway signals and more.

This Movie of The Celestial Railroad show us many stories about the starry sky, the constellations, accompanied by a concise narrative according to every story, every moment is themed magically by the voices of Males, females and kids, transmitting a natural curiosity along the story and pictures. The animation is showing elements we see everyday and how combines the world we see with the starry sky, to be precise, it become real when the Milky Way is placed at the beggining as the railway, being as well the start of the many different constellations and stories. Is quite relaxing while watching and listen to it.We are talking a 100% of sceneries, no characters around, counting with different storytellers as main characters, sometimes may feels like a documentary about constellations and their phantasies behind. Mention the music is talking about the film as well, gives a total ambience to this travel Goes to different sounds, mixing natural sound and the most imaginative and fantastical music. The movie had this moments that before and after a single episode, leaves you alone to enjoy or particulary observe something, is curious and is good, as it is to emphasize the narrative is constant and can overwhelm a bit. More or less, this movie is all about.
This is an extremely beautiful piece of animation, accompanied by marvelous and relaxing music. It is a work of art worth watching even if only for the sceneries and soundtrack. Here the focus is almost completely on the journey through the milky way, and the story is not presented in its entirety, although it's possible to follow some events. It is beautiful and relaxing, and we do not have here the deep plot conclusions or eerie atmosphere present in the previous movie adaptation. No character is shown, although we can hear Giovanni's and Campanella's voices in many moments in the narrative. The animation focuses on showing thebeautiful scenery of the journey and mostly explaining where they and the train are at each moment, with more precise astronomical information, which is quite interesting. With this approach in mind we can truly enjoy it. The only negative side I would point out is that the story is incomplete and many passages from the original book or previous movie adaptation were left out. Maybe this could be a bit longer, but again, the focus of this animation is not the story, but the journey and the scenery, so that is by no means a big issue. With many direct references to the original book and its author, this really stands out as a tribute.
