For kids and adults alike!
Ponyo is a great movie. With the beautifully hand-drawn and detailed scenery or the charming characterization there is a lot to be enjoyed at the first view. Watch it a second time and you'll not only discover how much attention to detail went into the creation of the movie's world but also become aware of the underlying topics: mankind's impact on nature, a recurring theme in Hayao Miyazaki's films, or the difficulties in child-parent relations.

Yet, this is a very bright and enjoyable movie. It celebrates the appreciation for hand-drawn animation and amazes with the imaginative powers of its creators and their attentive observation of the human nature that finds it way into the characters. It's a movie you'll want to share with your family and friends.

Dvd and Film Review
{FILM REVIEW}
Thanks to the distributers of Ponyo its been delayed until February of next year so i decided to import this from Play Asia instead.

I have to say i absolutely loved the film, it may not be as action packed as some of his previous films but i loved it for its pure simplicity. It very much reminded me of My Neighbor Totoro again due to the more simplistic storyline. In a world of action packed films being released nearly every week its nice to get a calm film with good strong acting, animation and message behind it, it lets you switch of your mind and immerse your self in this beautiful world, forgetting all the problems you leave behind in the real world.

As it was the Japanese dvd i only saw the film in its original language with subtitles so carn't really comment too much on the acting ability of Jonas + Cryus but from the clips i've seen i dont think they have the same charm of the original japanese voice actors, but i'll decide on that when they finally release it in the cinemas. If they ever get round to doing so...

{DVD and SERVICE}
The dvd itself is very simple to use and is available in multiple languages which make it easier for non-japanese audiences to watch. The service from Play Asia was great, the postage itself was slightly slow though this is not play asia's fault, i payed for the cheapest postage available so the speed reflected in this. I recommend everybody buy a copy from Play Asia of this fantastic film though would advice to pay that little bit more for the faster service.
