Ponyo [Gake no ue no Ponyo]
Hugely enjoyable and visually flawless.
I must add though, the vast majority of my enjoyment did stem from watching the adult characters react sociopathically calm in the face of incredible catastrophe. The mother character in particular must surely suffer the most explosive mental breakdown roughly five minutes after the end credits roll. Surely.

A typically Miyazakian take on the Little Mermaid with some truly magical imagery. While not his best I enjoyed it more than most of his children's movies. And, as Al said, watching the adult characters accept everything so effortlessly was highly entertaining.
