8 / 10
Translated from swedish: Perplexed, we look back and realize that it is definitely time for Walt Disney to move on. It is namely a 68-year-old from the land of the rising sun who holds the keys to the kingdom of magic. And you will become a better person if you enter there. Guaranteed.

Translated from swedish: I can wholeheartedly recommend "Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea" as high-quality entertainment for families with children, but this time I'm not convinced that it holds up well outside the enclosure.

1. Svenska Dagbladet
Translated from swedish: Miyazaki takes on H. C. Andersen's classic fairy tale about the little mermaid who wants to be human, and as usual, he treats the original story with a great deal of creative freedom - and with equal liberty in relation to Disney's kind and melodious version from 1989.
