Ponyo confirms Academy Award®-winning director Hayao Miyazaki's reputation as one of the most imaginative filmmakers working today. Loosely based on Hans Christian Anderson's "The Little Mermaid," Ponyo is a magical celebration of innocent love and the fragile beauty of the natural world. The daughter of the sea goddess Gran Mamare (voiced by Cate Blanchett) and the alchemist Fujimoto (Liam Neeson), Ponyo (Noah Cyrus) begins life as an adventurous little goldfish. Chafing at her father's restrictions, she goes in search of adventure and meets Sosuke (Frankie Jonas), a good-natured 5-year-old who lives by the sea. Sosuke adopts Ponyo and quickly wins her heart. Fujimoto uses magic to bring her back, but Ponyo's love for Sosuke proves stronger than his elixirs. She transforms herself into a human girl and returns to him during a spectacular storm at sea, but her metamorphosis upsets the balance of nature, precipitating a crisis only Gran Mamare can resolve. Ponyo contains fantastic moments that suggest dreams-- and reassert the power of hand-drawn animation to create memorable fantasies: No effects-laden Hollywood feature can match the wonder of Ponyo running along the tops of crashing waves on her way back to Sosuke. Ponyo is closer in tone to My Neighbor Totoro than Spirited Away or Howl's Moving Castle, and will appeal to audiences of all ages, including small children. The #1 film in Japan in 2008, Ponyo earned more than ¥14.9 billion (over US$155 million) to become the 8th highest grossing film in Japanese history. (Rated G: A few scary moments, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
Description
Welcome to a world where anything is possible! Academy Award winning director Hayao Miyazaki (2002, Best Animated Feature, Spirited Away) and legendary filmmaker John Lasseter together with Disney bring to life a heartwarming and imaginative telling of Hans Christian Andersen s classic fairy tale The Little Mermaid. A young boy named Sosuke rescues a goldfish named Ponyo, and they embark on a fantastic journey of friendship and discovery before Ponyo s father, a powerful sorcerer, forces her to return to her home in the sea. But Ponyo s desire to be human upsets the delicate balance of nature and triggers a gigantic storm. Only Ponyo s mother, a beautiful sea goddess, can restore nature s balance and make Ponyo s dreams come true. Ponyo will delight your family with its magnificent animation and timeless story.

 great movie and toy! September 3, 2010
Sara O'shea
I bought this set for my daughter's 6th birthday. The toy is extremely soft and perfect for a cuddler. It's just the right size for her to carry around - and she does - EVERYWHERE! We all loved Ponyo the movie. It's colorful, funny, clean and contains a great lesson of how disobeying your parents can cause lots of trouble for not just yourself but others you love too.
Great movie and toy - I highly recommend them!

My daughter was thrilled with the movie and plush. She has watched the movie a dozen times and sleeps with the plush every night. This is a great value and product.

I ordered this product from SUPERMART, my kids loved this movie,it's charming and wonderful. They had it for about half the price amazon is charging for it. I thought I got lucky. That evening I got an email,they cancelled my order,no explanation or apology. They simply didn't want to honor their deal. I will make sure I never give them any business.
Goods reached at ease May 10, 2010

My daughters love the movie, and now they enjoy the plush. We're in Japan and people keep asking me were we got the plush because they're hard to find.
