Porky pilot

Cursed selfish pilot develops heart.

Porco Rosso another Hayao Miyazaki movie. This time, while he has a young girl in the movie, she isn't the primary focus. She is the one who is trying to prove that she is something, some one and through her, people are changed (though generally due to machisimo battling men fighting for her attention).

It has some mild and deep themes, but the main character's perpetual smoking and drinking and reputed womanizing would make me skeptical to show this to younger people. It is, afterall only a cartoon, but I still wouldn't encourage smoking if I could help it.

There were no shown deaths in the movie and the exaggerated battles were akin to some of his work, but more along the line of caraciture work of Dragonball Z.

Considering re-watachability I would give it a 5.2
