About this movie

From the legendary Studio Ghibli, creators of Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro, and Academy Award®-winning director Hayao Miyazaki, comes a heartwarming adventure. When Sosuke, a young boy who lives on a clifftop overlooking the sea, rescues a stranded goldfish named Ponyo, he discovers more than he bargained for. Ponyo is a curious, energetic young creature who yearns to be human, but even as she causes chaos around the house, her father, a powerful sorcerer, schemes to return Ponyo to the sea.

Ratings and reviews

I've been a Ghibli fan since the 90s.....but this movie happens to be my least favorite. Animation was great as usual....however i found the "mermaid" to be an extremely annoying character. Can't handle her screaming like a toddler to communicate throughout the movie. Considering it's Ghibli, I gave a 3 instead of a 1 or 2 star.

i seen ponyo before and it's awesome to see it however I know it might not be around long but it is on your phone i love it, ponyo ponyo ponyo ponyo fishy in the sea tiny little humuns that i can be, i don't actually know what the real song says but I know it says ponyo ponyo ponyo ponyo fishy in the sea tiny little humuns that i can be, that's all I know

A beautifully crafted and well designed movie, a must watch for people of all ages. Watched it when i was a kid and got such positive nostalgia. Not a second of bad art in this film.
