Amazing story

Studio Ghibli creates an amazing film

Animation can be a very hit or miss genre of film. The Red Turtle is very much a hit. This film deals with multiple themes of friendship, loneliness, life and death just to name a few. The style of this film, created by Studio Ghibli, is a beautiful artistic piece that is each frame of this movie. With very little dialogue, this movie is all about show and don't tell. if you are a fan at all of artistic films, then this is the one for you.

Bonkers

Let's be honest, a Studio Ghibli film is never going to bad and is most usually going to be a little bit weird and wonderful. Well Ponyo is about as wacky and bonkers as you can get for a storyline, and you spend most of this film wondering what on earth you're watching. Which isn't a bad thing, it's just a bit surreal.

The animation side is wonderful as always and it's a heartwarming story, albeit a bit crazy. I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite Studio Ghibli films, but its still a fun family entertaining animation.
