Ponyo

Today, August 29, 2009, I went to see the famous Ponyo. Ponyo is a little fish born in the sea. Her father is a human , but hates humans. He married the Sea goddess and obtained magical powers.He lives in the sea with his children. I watched this movie in AMC 24 Hamilton because it was the only known theatre in the area to show ponyo. Ponyo is a great movie with excellent reviews, but it doesn't have enough viewers. AMC showed Ponyo in High Definition and surround sound stereos. There was crashing waves of the Tsunami and I could hear the sea rumbling. The visual effects created by Hayo Mizaki were excellent. His drawings are a genius. He created his own style of drawing animation. (Hayo Miazaki draws almost all his animated movies by hand.)

Ponyo is a fish and daughter of the Sea goddesses and the magician. Ponyo has hundreds of Siblings. Her father has magical potions that could make her human. Sosuke found her in a jar. He opened the jar and got a cut. Ponyo licked it and it became better. Since Ponyo tasted blood, it can make her human. She has magical abilities inherited from her mother. Her mother rules the sea.

This is the Japanese version of Walt Disney's Little Mermaid. Ponyo's the fish and Sosuske saved her. Sosuske cared for Ponyo and fed her ham. When Ponyo was taken back to the sea, she said that she loved Sosuke and wanted to eat ham. Then she started to grow human legs and arms.

Her father went to the sea to find Ponyo's mother for help and advise. While he was gone. Ponyo secretly escaped and flooded her father's labratory. Fish started to get in and her father's secret vault was opened. Now Ponyo and her siblings has the magic potion of her mother. Ponyo grew real hands and feet. Her siblings turned to giant fish. Together, their magic flooded the entire city.

The downpour of rain flooded all the roads in 6ft of water. It covered the entire city except a resort at the top of the mountain.

Ponyo disobeyed his father and went to Sosuske with her siblings. Her siblings turned to giant fish and she was a human walking on the fish. The fishes caused a tsunami and overturned ships. In the end , there were a a whole pile of large cargo ships.

At the very end of the storm, Ponyo's mother saved the ships and the lives of the people. ( The name ponyo was given to the little goldfish by Sosuke. She had a different name at birth , but her mother and father liked the name Ponyo better.)
Ponyo slept with Sosuske during the storm.
Then she woke up and was calling Sosuke. Then their heads bumped.

It is a classic childhood love.
