Review: This movie is so cute! It is touching, funny and entertaining all at the same time. Adults and children can all equally enjoy this film.

GET THIS FILM, it is really good!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Exciting And Interesting!!!
Review: I was taking a nap the other day while my master was watching this. Pretty soon the movie had my undivided attention. I know it was a cartoon and all, but the underwater world is a world that dogs just don't get to see. The movie was so well done and looked so realistic (I am assuming anyway) that I almost couldn't follow the story, but the story was great anyway. If the folks at the Pixar studios ever do a story about dogs, you can bet I'll see it (I just wish theaters would let dogs in so I don't have to wait until they come out on video).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Disney's Best Yet
Review: Since there are countless reviews about this film, I won't say how great it is, but provide my review solely for the DVD.

The DVD is loaded with special features, including the wide screen and full screen versions, so you don't have to worry about which disc to buy. It also includes an "Aquarium Vision" feature that is just a virtual aquarium for those lacking a real one. I found it really relaxing to sleep to. The making of featurette and commentary is one of the best I have seen for any movie. You don't realize how difficult it is to do something seemingly simple, like animate water or create shadows underwater until you listen to the director. The DVD also includes a look at the culture of Pixar Studios and the hundreds of people that worked on the film, which I found pretty interesting. Disc one is really more geared to adults than children.

The sound quality and picture is amazing. Whenever a film is transferred from widescreen to full screen format, it is accomplished by cutting off the sides of the picture so that it fills up the entire screen. Pixar actually added new animation to the film for the full screen format, so not only do you not have to worry about the picture being cut, but you are actually getting new footage.

if you purchase the DVD, not only are you getting a great movie, but the bonus features will keep you entertained for hours after Nemo and Marlin have swum away.

Summary: The computer graphics were awesome
Review: This is an amazingly fun movie too watch and recall lines later at the dinner table with your children. Pixar's computer graphics takes us under the water: fluid systems create the feeling of viscosity; the poisonous jellyfish and the coral reef, also demostrate fluid systems; flowing water and particle systems are surprisingly emersive, as in the case of the whales tongue, sea anemones,EAC, and Aquarium. Lighting illumination models really enhanced with scenes of underwater refraction, energy waves, and reflection.

The character development was excellent, the sharks provide us with an Austrialian ascents, whitty humor, and memorible lines. Dori and Marlin provide a comedy routing through out the movie. Its less of a romance and more of a comedy. Pixar's introduction a short film within the movie worked; I found the "Mine" seaguls funny, well times, and the collision with the sail - perfect. The Crash Turtle surfer dialogue is especially popular. Crash protrays a much less protective parent type and after Squirt is ejected from the EAC, says, "Just a second, Lets see what Squirt does". The wide diversity of characters and multiple interactions between scenes makes the movie not boring. At the dentist office classic dental humor unravels with the dentist chasing a pelican, the power drill floppying around, wide eyed patients in waiting, and the dentist running into a lamp; a little Abbot and Costello.

The Nemo character has an underdog theme. A father who becomes a hero in his son's mind. A son who acts heroically overcoming his fears and handicaps. Nemo wants to become independant, the transition from boy to man; I estimate the theme, a little less dramatic then "Brother Bear". In the last few scenes, Dori is capture with a school of Tuna in a fishing net; Nemo learns from his experiences in the aquarium to work as a team, so he, convinces the Marlin he can save Dori and instructs the tuna, to swim down; Nemo proves to Marlin, he is not helpless; and the family continues. The music is fun, the art colors are bright tropically colors. The movie is very emmersive in both the story line and computer graphic special effects.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny and heartwarming
Review: Pixar has done it again with another great movie. Finding Nemo is a heartwarming story about Marlin, a clown fish, who loses his mate and almost all of his children to a shark. His one remaining child, Nemo, is a boisterous, fun-loving little fish. But after the trauma of losing almost all of his family, Marlin begins living his life with fear: Fear of the ocean and of losing Nemo. His overprotectiveness eventually becomes a problem when Nemo goes out on his first day of school; A day that includes a field trip to the outer edges of the reef.

When Marlin finds out, he panics and rushes out to pull Nemo from the trip. All in all, this results in a rift between Nemo and his father and Nemo's eventual capture by a dentist, who whisks him away to his aquarium to keep him there until he can present him as a gift to his young niece, a "fish-killer". Marlin, realizing what his fear has cost him, begins his trek to Sydney to rescue Nemo. And this is where the adventure begins.

I love this movie. Marlin's adventure allows him to cross paths with many different species of fish and birds, some friendly, some not so friendly and some who are down right dangerous. In the process, Marlin learns the importance of letting go and trusting Nemo and also learns to let go of his fear and just live.

I have no complaints. This graphics were outstanding and very colorful. Pixar did an outstanding job.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: as good as any video every made
Review: my kids absolutely loved this, Nemo is now the nickname to our little boy, he can't watch this video enough. I love the graphics, it is so reall like.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definately deserves more than 5 stars
Review: This is a wonderful movie that every age will love! With Nemo, the rebellious yet naive little clown fish, Dory the crazy walk-on-the-wild-side character that everyone loves, and Marlin the overprotective dad that many can relate to. The tank gang was hilarious as well. Wonderful wonderful wonderful! A must-see!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun on so many levels
Review: After peeling away the all-star cast and the unparalleled animation, you still get a story true the nature of past Disney movies. When you add the other two aforementioned aspects of the movie, you get "Finding Nemo," an entertaining movie for all ages. Ellen DeGeneres's "Dory" is consistently hysterical throughout the movie, as are those voices done by Albert Brooks, Allison Janney, Vicki Lewis, and Brad Garrett.

"Finding Nemo" lives up to the hype it has been receiving, for it is an entertaining, spectacular movie that will be sure to enthrall people of all ages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My wife brought it home and...
Review: We loved it. My 19 month old was mesmerized for most of the movie as was I and my wife.

Awesome visuals, a very good story and ... just great on a Widescreen. I'd recommend this enthusiastically.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fish With Feelings
Review: I would give this movie 5 stars because the animation was awesome, but I have learned to expect nothing but the best from Pixar. Instead, I gave it 4 stars because the storyline, although interesting, was just missing something. I didn't like this nearly as much as Monsters, Inc. Ellen Degeneres as Dori the fish, was perfect. There is also a jelly fish scene, where I learned something about them I never knew before.

Admittedly, I probably would have liked this more too if it hadn't had the typical Disney opening trauma of having something/someone die, and then building a story/moral around that.
