4/5

Mr. Miyazaki smooshes fantasy and history into a pastel-pretty yarn as irresistible as his feminism.

It's solid Miyazaki, although he has reached greater heights both before and since.

One of Miyazaki's most impressive features! It is incredible how the film can blend fun with meaning, creating a rich text that is sadly overlooked by many.

Porco Rosso is Miyazaki at his best, mixing visually pleasing shots of the Adriatic Sea locations with a story about an unlikely hero, a pig-looking bounty hunter who has run away from Fascist Italy and claims to only fly for himself.

4/4

It’s colorful, innocent, bright, and most importantly romantic in the most expansive capacity of the word.

All the good ones died, maybe i am dead and life as a pig is hell. God the truth in that statement. And then the ones of us that survived always have that thing that makes us different like a pig in a human world. I love this movie

It was beautifully animated. Also a very sweet and family friendly adventure film. There's no one to hate or really even a antagonist which you don't see often in a film.

The animation was solid, but the plot was a little strange and at times cringy as it follows a fighter pilot whose curse turns him into a pig then becomes a bounty hunter of air pirates.
