Kalissa H @kali_416 Jul 5 I liked it fine, but the main character was slightly misogynistic, saying that Fio was a “cutie” and that she needed to sleep to “look good.” He wasn’t that thrilled with an all women crew (the all women crew was cool!) working on his plane. Plus, Fio was seventeen and her grandfather told the Porco not to try to go after her. She’s 17, he’s a grown man (pig). Curtis wanted to marry Fio, again she was 17, and while they don’t specify his age, Curtis was clearly a grown man.

Joyful and colourful but still touching some pretty deep themes. Those few raving about that supposed "perviness" should wash their brains and breathe some fresh air.

The animation and colorful Italian seaside landscapes are beautiful. The flying ace scenes are very well done and exciting. The movie is very funny and laid-back. I love the petty rivalry Porco Rosso has with the other seaplane pilots. I liked Porco's line "I'd rather be a pig than a Fascist". Michael Keaton is great as Porco Rosso and gives him a ton of wit and personality. The film is stacked with so many great voice actors. I liked the friendship between Porco Rosso and Fio. I loved the ethereal, dream-like ascension of all the fallen planes in Porco's WWI flashback. The climactic dogfight between Porco and Curtis was exciting and funny. I love that it just devolves into a fist fight after their guns get jammed. The ending is good, but too many interesting details are rushed through the ending narration. Definitely one of the more underrated Ghibli movies in my book.

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 See more Noel L @RT15930389 Aug 20 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. See more Read all reviews
