Rating: Summary: Finding Marlin... Review: The movie is about finding Marlin's son, Nemo, who has been captured and put into a dentist's fishtank in Sydney, Australia. BUT THE MOVIE IS REALLY ABOUT FINDING MARLIN (voiced by Albert Brooks), the father, a well-meaning but suffocating father who doesn't want his partly disabled son to do anything risky. In order to save Nemo, Marlin overcomes his fears of life off the reef, facing sharks, whales, and other ocean dangers in order to rescue Nemo.That Marlin is the one who is really rescued is attested by his bravery at the end in letting Nemo, with whom he has been reunited, risk his life to save their new friend, Dory (voiced by Ellen Degeneres). FINDING NEMO IS AN ENDEARING FATHER-SON STORY ABOUT THE STRUGGLES OF A PARENT TO LET GO AND THE INCREASED INTIMACY THAT RESULTS FROM DOING SO. PLUSES: * Pixar has outdone itself. The incredible animation makes the Toy Story movies look like Steamboat Willie. * Just as with the Toy Story movies, the pacing of the story is great. There aren't any dead spots. Both the comedy and the drama are perfectly placed. PURCHASING RECOMMENDATION: I personally still think the Lion King is the best animated feature Disney has ever put out. But that's because of the power of the story. This is the best animation Disney has ever put out, thanks to its partnership with Pixar. I highly recommend it, but with the caution that THERE MAY BE SOME FRIGHTENING PARTS FOR YOUNGER VIEWERS, though my four-year old (who was frightened by Monsters, Inc., wasn't frightened by this.)
Rating: Summary: Enjoyable for anyone and everyone Review: This immensely entertaining and highly enjoyable family film is a modern marvel of Pixar's computer animation advancements and is endlessly enjoyable for kids and adults, as proved by it's immense box office success. When a clownfish named Marlin (Albert Brooks) becomes seperated from his young son Nemo, he travels across the vast ocean to find him. On his journey he meets a blue tangfish named Dory (Ellen DeGeneres) who suffers from short term memory loss, while having plenty of encounters with sharks on what resemble to be they're version of a twelve step program ("just one bite, just one bite!"), jelly fish, sea turtles, seaguls, and pelicans. The animation is superb, Pixar has come such a long way since Toy Story all those years ago; and children will find immense enjoyment in the colorful, friendly fish life to be found in Finding Nemo. The rest of the cast of voices features Allison Janney, Geoffrey Rush, Willem Dafoe, and Eric Bana. The DVD itself is a modern marvel of DVD technology, and is absolutely a must own for parents and they're children. I was surprised how much I enjoyed Finding Nemo, believe me give this film a look, you won't forget it.
Rating: Summary: It's a Whale of a Tale Dude! Review: From the dim-witted Dory to the unfunny clownfish Marlin, this epic adventure has a character everyone will love. Crush and his offspring are totally surfer dudes! Nemo's friends at the dentist's office are lovable. The best characters, however, are the gulls. Pixar has captured the true essence of these annoying "dump ducks."
Rating: Summary: just fantastic Review: I really loved Finding Nemo. I see there is a lot of fun extra stuff on the DVD so I'm totally convinced that every kid should see this and I'm sure that the parents will enjoy it also. It is a very good present not only for Christmas but for every occasion - it has humor, heart and a lot of excellent computer graphics which alone is a good reason for viewing this animation. And the vivid colourful underwater world was just breathtaking!
Rating: Summary: Too scary for some Review: My 2.5 year old daughter asked me throughout the movie what had happened to the mama fish (she was eaten by a shark). When mama fish didn't miraculously come back from the dead or wake up from a coma at the end of the movie, I had to tell my daughter that she had been eaten. Since then, it's "no like Nemo." Single moms might think twice before letting their very young kids see this.
Rating: Summary: Best Disney movie yet Review: Finding Nemo is a GREAT movie for all ages. It's is very funny and entertaining. I think it is the best Disney Movie that has ever been released. I highly suggested buying this movie.
Rating: Summary: Nemo Review: Nemo is aninteresting and exciting book. it is a unrealistic book because fish don't talk.I think that all ages must read this lovely book.
Rating: Summary: Find Nemo and Have Fun! (3.5 stars) Review: Although the endearing Disney comedy "Finding Nemo" offers nothing in terms of breakthrough, it's a sure bet for spending nice 100 minutes. The tale about fish (and other animal) world pitted against intruding humans in the quest for the lost orange-white clown-fish called Nemo highlights family and friendship values, and as such is a perfect family fun. Beautiful colours and animation, nice music and even occasional hints at human culture may have even more morose viewers smiling every once in a while. Don't expect anything deep, but this is cute and pure film fun, free of anything violent and controversial, yes, it's also for your little ones.
Rating: Summary: AWESOME MOVIE! Review: This movie rocks. I have seen it almost 10 times and it has never gotten boring. It is so funny! It is great for kids and adults. My parents even liked it!
Rating: Summary: Superb! Fun for the whole family! Review: What a cute film! The DVD has loads of extras and I could choose between wide-screen or full-screen (I watched it full-screen!) I even played the game on it and watched all the extras. hahahahaha I'm a sucker for a Disney film.... An excellent Christmas present. Some may consider it the least impressive of the pixar films but it's still worth watching.
