Great film, regardless of how old you are.

At one point it occurred to me, I was watching five year olds eat soup and it was somehow the most awesome thing ever. This is a kids move that every kids movie should be compared too, it makes the simplest acts worth watching somehow, but still has suspenseful moments sprinkled throughout to keep things interesting.

My only criticism is that there isn’t much of a climax. The outcome of the movie isn’t really in doubt for anyone outside the target demographic of the film. Even with no surprises in the plot, the visuals and depth of the characters are more than enough to overcome any shortcomings.

Ponyo is a great film to watch regardless of age, and something that should be in movie collection for every child.
