Porco Rosso is the story of one man seeking redemption. While it maintains Miyazaki's beautiful art style, anti-war themes, and strong female characters, Porco Rosso centers on a middle-aged bounty-hunter protagonist who smokes, drinks, flirts, and flies his way through Fascist Italy in the 1930s. Charming, poignant, funny, devastating, whimsical, and melancholy, Porco Rosso has something for everyone, and isn't afraid to take risks.

You don't have to be a fan of anime to enjoy the works of Hayao Miyazaki, and this is one of his finest human dramas. Apart from the curse that turned our hero into a pig, all elements of fantasy that Miyazaki is known for are absent, and the world that this takes place in is very much our own.

Higher than the sun, that is flies the ace of airliners of Studio Ghibli. The story blends witty comedy, romance and action, and thrilling dogfights. A must have for every Studio Ghibli fanboy.

Heart warming and fun. I love the visuals, and most definitely the soundtracks. A unique main character though nevertheless lovable. Miyazaki never fails to make us fall in love with his movies.

One of the greatest Miyazaki productions. The visuals are gorgeous, the universe / story are original and well construct and the characters are profounds and enigmatics. I literally was in Mediterranean sea living the story with them.

Not much at all going on here. Mostly a waste of time. Great animation as usual but there is almost no plot at all. Very boring. If this was Miyazaki's only film, no one would bother mentioning him.

So Studio Ghibli can make really fun movies aswell. Unusual movie for them, but it turned out really well.

Not Ghibli's best movie, but great nonetheless. The animation is beautiful, the characters are well-written, it has good themes, and the story is overall pretty good; the third act just doesn't tie it up in a way that feels quite dramatic orNot Ghibli's best movie, but great nonetheless. The animation is beautiful, the characters are well-written, it has good themes, and the story is overall pretty good; the third act just doesn't tie it up in a way that feels quite dramatic or satisfying enough. Overall, great with some flaws.
