Summary: Awesome movie for ALL ages!
Review: I think the last movie I reviewed here was Monsters Inc. It was probably the last movie I saw too! That tells you how much of a movie fan that I'm NOT! But this one is just TOO GOOD TO BE MISSED! Our family watched it together - our kids are grown or nearly grown. We all laughed hysterically and loved it. Two of my kids had seen it already, and had dissolved into laughter after repeating the line from the movie "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming" and "I speak whale!", so we had to see what this was all about!

I did feel the opening part about Marlin's wife Coral and all their eggs (except Nemo) being devoured was sad and might be a little intense for young viewers, but other than that, the movie was a real winner. Another reviewer said that if you have young children, you could skip that part and I agree.

There are so many lessons here - and the sense of adventure - and the importance of love and family and friends is very clear here. There is nothing not to like about "Finding Nemo"! I didn't view the extra DVD material, but it sounds great from what I've read. If you're interested in a family-oriented movie review of "Finding Nemo" and any other movies, check out Focus on the Family's "Plugged In" section - you'll find that at family.org.

Summary: Pixar's Best Yet, Not to be Missed
Review: It woudln't be an understatement to say that Pixar Animation Studios is really pushing the envelope in how real a computer animated film can be. Finding Nemo is everything we've come to expect in a Disney/Pixar featuer, and then some. There is comedy, drama, and truly heartfelt emotion as Marlin the clownfish searches for his lost son Nemo. The story is superb, the writing is sharp, the vocalwork is fantastic. And then there are the visuals. To say the least, Pixar has outdone itself when it comes to the detail, richness, and realness of the animation in Nemo. Simply put, you FEEL like you're in a vast underwater world. Light bends and shimmers around the water, you see particles float, shadows look realstic, refraction looks like it should, overall, it looks incredibly REAL. Pixar definately deserves awards for the quality of the animation here.

As for the DVD, it too is a winner. Packed with two versions of the film (wide and fullscreen), and hours of wonderful bonus featuers for both kids and digital animation enthusiasts alike. The transfer is superb (not hard seeing the film's digital roots, like Star Wars: Attack of the Clones), and the sound quality is excellent.

The bottom line? Nemo is a DVD that everyone should have in their collection, without a doubt.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finding an awesome Nemo
Review: This is a wonderful movie for literally anyone and everyone. Just because it is Dinsey, doesn't mean that it is only for kids. My boyfriend and I are in our mid twenties and LOVE it. The turtles themselves in the movie are well worth the buy!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great 2-disc edition of a new classic animated film
Review: Pixar makes great films, and FINDING NEMO is no exception. Nemo is a young clownfish living with his dad (voiced by Albert Brooks) who is taken by a scuba-diving dentist to live in his office tank. When Nemo's dad takes off after the boat to get his son back, he meets Dory (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres), who tries to help him despite her horrible short-term memory. Along the way Marlin and Dory encounter sharks, turtles, jellyfish and seagulls, while Nemo befriends his fellow aquarium dwellers, who are busy planning an escape.

While I think the first segment of the film, in which Nemo's mother and all his siblings are devoured by a predator, should have been omitted, the movie is otherwise a lot of fun and very entertaining. You might want to skip this first segment if you are watching with young kids.

The disc set is loaded with great feautures, including the film in widescreen or fullscreen format, a virtual aquarium, commentary track, deleted scenes, a making-of featurette, a documentary on exploring the reefs with Jacques Cousteau's son, trailers, a short film, a game and many featurettes.

Great movie, great deal!

It's about A fish named Nemo,one day he gets captured by these divers so his father,Marlin,trys to swim after the boat that Nemo is in.But he's too late,Then he runs into another fish named Dory.(she has short term memory loss.)So Marlin and Dory go searching the WHOLE entire sea looking for Nemo,along the way they make some friends.Like the radical dude Crush the turtle.The not-so-radical Bruce the shark who goes nuts and trys to eat them.While Nemo is in a Dentist's office somewhere in Sydney,Austrailia.he meets the tank gang,Gurgle,Bloat,Gill,Peach,Bubbles,Deb,and Jaques(i don't know if theres more or not,i don't think so.)

sincerly,
kenny

Summary: G rating is appropriate
Review: I would just like to start out saying that this movie is not scary. If your child is scared during this movie, then your child has problems. Wow, a fish dies in the movie. Woop-tee-doo. Are you suggesting they rate it R? If you can't handle the death of an animated fish then I would hate to see you when your relatives die. I'm out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fresh From the Ocean
Review: "Finding Nemo" is one of the best animated movies released in 2003. This movie is highly enjoyable for audiences of all ages, not just kids. It has many unique features that stand out from all other movies, especially the combination of comedy and life-long lessons. Its plot will keep audiences laughing at many quotes. Every movie characteristic is catchy. Every scene keeps the audience awaiting anxiously for the next scene. Marvin's journey to rescue his son from humans and Nemo's struggle to escape from the aquarium symbolize this.

The acting is great. Albert Brooks, Ellen Degeneres, Willem Dafoe, Allison Janney, and Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush are a few actors who offer their voices. Degeneres amazingly offers her own sense of humor to the movie. All other actors also played their roles wonderfully. Every voice effect matches their characters' profile perfectly.

The catchiness stretches further than just the screenplay. The animation is ahead of its time. The color is amazingly shiny. It matches the ocean's glow perfectly and keeps the ocean beautiful as it is in real life. Every detail is perfect, even the minor ones. If watched closely the whole time, the audience will notice that the artists did not cheat a single scene, like many others do.

It wouldn't be surprising if "Finding Nemo" received an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature for 2003. Compared to all other animated films released this year, this movie could likely win. Those who watch this movie will discover why it became the highest grossing animated movie of all time. Many will be highly entertained.

***Note: Once the end credits begin, don't push "stop" immediately. There's one more scene.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: G Rating Very Inappropriate
Review: A G rating of film implies that it is appropriate for all ages. This movie includes a scene of Nemo's mother and all of his siblings being killed. Next, he is captured and his father, who has been too traumatized by his wife's killing to even leave his home, has to find his son and save him before Nemo is killed. Although this movie is lovely to look at and is funny for adults at times, it is irresponsible to tell parents to show it to their young children. In addition to the violent death of Nemo's family and his own impending doom, there are other violent and scary images in this movie that young children should not see. My child told me after the movie that he was very scared. I am giving this movie one star because it was irresponsibly marketed to young children and their families and given a rating that was inappropriate for the subject matter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: way cool....
Review: 2003s best. One of the best movies I've seen in a while! truely amazing. I didn't think it'd be this good. But then again what can I expect from Disney n' Pixar? the animation was incredible and the voice overalls did great. Dory in my opinion was the most entertaining character in the movie. All the fish had great their own unique greatness.

The DVD features are excellent. I only have the FS version of the film because I split the DVD with my sister (neice and nephew). I ususally go for the WS but in this case FS is better because it doesn't cut anything out. In my high school this movie is well known for a Disney movie. I think that's saying something.

I want a huge fish tank now with all the fish in this movie including the Blue "yes I'm a natural blue" Tang.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: DVD is brilliant!
Review: Being only one of the very few Southern Aussies to own an American edition of Finding Nemo has been a very proud moment for me thanks to Amazon. The only other Australian's with Finding Nemo are those with pirated copies from the flea-markets. Well done to Pixar for all the extra little bits... what an amazing team you are! Of course I woul d have loved to have seen the actors in action doing their voice overs but this would have to be the ONLY set-back. We only see about 3 people in the bonus bits. To all the 15 million owners of this DVD already we don't need to encourage the 'rest' of the western population to buy it... the sales figures says it all.

**** out of ****** from me...
