Beautiful story and animation. I've seen it many times with my 4 year old grand daughter who can't wait to see it again and again. I loved it!

I appreciate your comment Apser. Wow! Anime DONE COMPLETELY BY HAND!!! When Miyazaki is gone, this will become a truely lost art. Art is created by human hands, NOT A COMPUTER PROGRAM. The idea that P... onyo could be less that art because it's not computer generated is indeed offensive. Clearly, some of us were indeed raised different in being able to fully appreciate art.

There is a word to describe Ponyo, and that word is magical. This poetic, visually breathtaking work by the greatest of all animators has such deep charm that adults and children will both be touched.Full Review

It is a work of great fantasy and charm that will delight children ages 3 to 100.Full Review

You'll be planning to see Ponyo twice before you've finished seeing it once. Five minutes into this magical film you'll be making lists of the individuals of every age you can expose to the very special mixture of fantasy and folklore, adventure and affection.Full Review

The latest masterwork from Hayao Miyazaki, places emphasis on the natural world, its tumults and fragility.Full Review

The New York Times

One of Miyazaki's most kid-accessible movies, but still an unnerving film.Full Review
