Summary: PIXAR STRIKES GOLD AGAIN!
Review: While I didn't get to the theaters to see this, I bought it Day One on DVD. In a house with a two year-old, this movie is played frequently. My daughter has a limited vocabulary, but "Nemo" is among her most used words, and with good reason.

Rarely am I entertained by my daughter's entertainment, but as usual, this film works on multiple levels, entertaining the little ones, who are wowed by the bright colors and action, to the adults who are sick of listening to baby talk in other insipid children's programming like "Teletubbies" and "Oobi." Several scenes (particularly with the 12-step sharks and possessive seagulls ("Mine!")) had me laughing out loud and silently thanking Disney/Pixar for producing more quality family entertainment.

My daughter can sit and watch any of the Pixar movies from start to finish, and Nemo continues the tradition of great Pixar hits. Like Toy Story I&II, Bugs Life, & Monsters Inc., Finding Nemo is great addition to the DVD collection of people of all ages. Rarely do highly touted films live up to the hype, but this one does!

Summary: I will never go fishing ever... poor things...
Review: What can i say? All i heard was raving reviews but no way was i going to see this at the cinema. A group of 17yr old lads out to see Finding Nemo? ... i dont think.

But lucky me- a friend lent me their DVD afew months later and all i can say is- amazing. The film is excellently made and is funny throughout with some deep characters. Not only is the film amazing, but the extras on this DVD are incredible.

No matter who you are, No matter how old, No matter what background. Finding Nemo will be a prized possetion in your DVD collection.

Review: I simply loved to watch this great animation movie. I recommend this movie to all parents who are afraid of letting their children fly away and to those who are obcessed about life's dangers. If you still have not children living with you, you have to see this movie just to know one of the funniest characters I have ever known... DORIS!!! You'll have to see it. And I loved the australian accent;) Must see it... and buy it!!

Summary: Great Family Movie Night!
Review: This is one of those movies that is perfect for you family movie night. Our son (9) loves it just as much as my husband and I do. If your child gets scared easily there are a couple of scenes that might frighten them a little, watch for the shark scenes. They start out ok, but then the sharks start chasing and it's a bit intense for kids who are easily scared. My son was ok with it after seeing it a couple of times and learning what to expect though.

Summary: CHARMING MOVIE THAT'LL TAKE YOU FOR A SWIM
Review: As with other Pixar releases, very wholesomely enjoyable experience. Lots of layers for all ages, visually wicked and enticingly real. Pixar has made many breakthroughs with each movie, with each having a quantum leap in something. The realistic water in Nemo is almost as noticable as the jaw-dropping realism of fur wisps in Monsters Inc.

You'll enjoy some wry wit in the inside jokes and homages. I kept expecting a "Great Escape" homage with Gill, perhaps having his gimpy fin look like a ball glove or such, but I suppose some would have pointed out that Chicken Run already did it. I did think that Gill's scar looked a lot like the facial scar in Platoon (problem being it was Tom Berenger's character that had the scar not Defoe's), but then again I might have been looking for way too inside jokes (how about a West Wing hint with the Star fish). I just about wet myself when she started trying to speak Whaaaallllle. I would have killed to have seen Ellen's face for real as she recorded those bits.

Not the least of reasons to watch this excellent family flick is the almost palpable emotion -- as a not so funny clownfish goes on an impossible trek through the ocean depths to rescue his only son.

An engaging, heartfelt animation.

Summary: ALEXS CAPSULE MOVIE REVIEWS
Review: Highlights: Spectacular computer animation; hilarious, well-developed characters; original plot.
Lowpoints: Kids-oriented.

Conclusion: Children will undoubtedly delve headfirst into the Pixar-animated waters to join the amusing ocean characters on their quest to find Nemo, who's been captured and kept by a dentist in Sydney, Australia. The plot keeps switching betwen Nemo's and his new friends' attempts to escape from the dentist's aquarium before his monstrous daughter comes to torture them; and Nemo dad's search; the film never loses momentum, providing a lavishly animated experience for the little ones. Unlike 'Shrek', or Pixar's earlier 'Toy Story I.II', 'Finding Nemo' has little appeal to parents. Still, marvel at the visuals, and lack of bad taste, so abundant in kids' flicks these days...

Summary: Chalk Up Another One for the Dynamic Duo of Disney and Pixar
Review: Disney and Pixar are on a roll! It's starting to seem that they can do no wrong.

The movie begins with a sad introduction, dealing with how Marlin, a clown fish, and his son Nemo are on their own. But, the sadness doesn't last too long, jumping on to Nemo's first day of school, where the story takes off! Nemo is kidnapped, or should I say fishnapped, by a scuba-diver, leaving his overly cautious father to face his fears and save him. Along the way he meets scatterbrained Dory, a blue Tang fish, who is just as much hindrance as help. From there the two fish encouter fish friendly sharks, squishy jellyfish, surfin' sea turtles, monstrous whales, and the most hilarious adventure of their fishy lives. And remember! Just keep swimming... just keep swimming... just keep swimming...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The funniest Disney movie yet!
Review: I would just like to say that this movie is the funniest movie ever! It appeals to both young kids and adults because the humor can have so many different meanings. Everything about this movie, from the voices, to the animation, to the storyline and characters makes this movie hysterically funny, fresh and just plain grereat! I have watched this movie several times, the first being in the theaters, and I was about to roll down the aisle from laughing so hard! I think I liked it more than the little kids there! The DVD is also packed with great inside featers, games, stories and more. IF YOU SEE ONE DISNEY MOVIE THIS YEAR, YOU MUST SEE FINDING NEMO!!!!!!!
