Finally got around to watching this. Kinda underwhelmed. Definitely my least favorite of Miyazaki's catalog. I cant even put my finger on why either. Never really connected with any of the characters and the film didn't resonate with me at all.

Saw it in theaters and recently watched it again on Blu-ray. Really liked it the first time, absolutely loved it the second time.

But then I found UP to be completely full of shit, also.

Ponyo would be a masterpiece if it were more akin to the first 10 minutes and more or less strictly orchestra music. But alas it wasn't and the goofy dialog for the silly plot started.
