Entertainment Reviews:
More action-packed and manga-style, but its predictable plot points (punch-ups and air-battles) are secondary to Miyazaki-esque scenes of women's work, the indifferent beauty of nature and war as nightmare.

...a near miss that nevertheless fares better than most of Miyazaki's output.

Rating: 8/10 --
That a pretty great adventure movie can rest comfortably alongside a strange tale of identity and morality... is proof enough that we're in the hands of a master storyteller

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Though the story touches on politics and even profundities of the human experience, Miyazaki's light touch and overriding sense of fun promise that children of all ages will give themselves over... [Blu-ray]

Rating: 4/4 --
Animator/fabulist Hayao Miyazaki pays homage to Hollywood's wartime adventure films in this masterwork built around the adventures of a high-flying pig.

As gorgeous and complex as his very best films -- and with a more grown-up sense of humour...
Uncut
Rating: 3/4 --
...has a carefree sensibility that belies its underlying consideration of things like love, loss and warfare.

Product Description:
From the renowned director of MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO and PRINCESS MONONOKE comes this period, fantasy anime about an Italian, ace WWI pilot who undergoes a transformation to become Porco Rosso, part man, part pig, after witnessing the deaths of other pilots in his last air battle. Under this spell, Porco Rosso survives by taking odd jobs, and finds himself in one comic situation after another as he romances women, rescues the innocent, and looks for a way out of the porcine spell.
