Ponyo

Another Miyazaki masterpiece and instant Disney classic!  Beautiful animation that tells the tale of a young ocean princess, Ponyo, who longs to become a human when she befriends a Japanese boy named Sosuke.  A fantastical spin on the classic story of The Little Mermaid.  An all-star cast lend their voices to the film, including Liam Neeson and Cate Blanchett as Ponyo's parents, and Matt Damon and Tina Fey as Sosuke's parents.  Definitely a movie that the whole family will enjoy.


4 out of 5 stars
