Why watch this film?

Inspired vaguely by 'The Little Mermaid', a story by Hans Christian Andersen and made world-famous by Disney's adaptation, 'Gake no ue no Ponyo' is Hayao Miyazaki's tenth feature film and his eighth with the world-renowned Studio Ghibli. This is perhaps one of the most underrated films of the acclaimed animator and director's recent filmography, but it is undeniable that this fairy tale is visually spectacular (something even more noteworthy, as the studio returned to hand-drawn animation), as well as extremely moving for audiences of all ages. A great experience to watch with children, nephews, grandchildren. A sensitive story for the family.
