Summary: Finding brilliance....
Review: PIXAR is on it's way out from Disney at it's own accord. Good for them. They are the true masterminds that creates works of art like 'Finding Nemo' , and Disney gets the majority of the credit. This movie is beautiful to watch. Ellen Degeneres has found her true calling in entertainment. Now, if they could only make the fish a lesbian in the sequel, then she would have it all. The droll delivery of Albert Brooks humor is a perfect match for the character he portrays. Brooks reminds me a bit of Woody Allen on PAXIL. Obnoxious and miserable but O.K. with it. I have enjoyed this with my wife and 5 year old son over and over and can truly say that i've never been happier with a PIXAR film. Just be careful with the openning sequence. It's a death sequence which may have a few sensitive children a bit upset at first.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: see it
Review: this is the best movie to ever come out of pixer yet. it was pure eye candy from begining to ene. finding nemo is the story of a clown fish. one day him and his wife are outside of there reef and marlin encounters a baracouta(probly spelled that wrong) his wife is killed and all his eggs crushed except one. nemo he names him a fish with a small fin. marlin is over proctective of nemo and when nemo is captured by scouba divers it is up to marlin to save his only son. he befreinds a fish named dory and together they set out to rescue nemo. now some people may think that there to old for animated flicks but u can enjoy this one no matter how old u are. it has stuning visuals a great story and no songs thank god. it is very creative and each one of the fish have there own cork that makes the character momorible and not just another disney character. kids will enjoy this and adults probly my like it more than kids.elen is perfect as dory giving the film a laugh every minute its halarious.i laughed out loud on more than one ocasion. yes its safe to say that this is the best animated flick ever to hit the big screen trust me do ur self a favor and see it again again and again

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ALL TIME CLASSIC!
Review: It's outstanding, how the Pixar people have come to make such a realistic animated movie, so I'm not going to praise them more, because it's obvious this is a well done technical movie, instead I'm gonna tell you that the plot of this movie, is simply innovative, and creative, touches delicate topics, like the death of a parents, without getting to much into detail. The story of an scared father searching for his son thru all the pacific, is simply delgihtful, and the heartouching ending is better, specially this movie teaches everyone, that friends like Doris, even if she is like out of place and without focus could give you a needed hand, so remember this is a great movie, well done, and with a great message.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wholly Satisfying Family Movie
Review: I'm a huge fan of Pixar and their work; I think the animation they've done in the past decade or so has been truly revolutionary for the way kids movies are crafted. There are a lot of "moron" movies that get splashed across the screen every year so that kids will beg their parents to take them to the movies, thus pumping large revenues into the studios. It's the candy-bar effect: they do nothing for the kid, but they do make the kid make their parent spend money.

If those movies are candy-bars, "Finding Nemo" is a full meal complete with veggies. First off; the animation--it's like a moving art gallery. Colors are everywhere, they're vibrant, they're full of motion, they absolutely entice, and a joy to watch. There's not a drab speck in this film, even when the water gets smokey and the scenery is sparse; it's still thrilling to watch the animated ocean, especially how the different shades effect the appearance of the two lead fish; Marlin and Dory. I especially like the little "neighborhood" that Nemo and Marlin are a part of, with variated corals everywhere, multi-hued fish swimming past, sumptuous undersea fauna, etc etc etc...

The comedy; first rate. And I mean really top-notch. One thing a lot of kids movies do is assume that their audience will only get the dumbest of jokes. Kids are sharp and respond to subtle humor, and the writers of "Nemo" know this. It helps a lot too that you have a seasoned comic actor Albert Brooks and comedienne-actress Ellen Degeneres on board as well (incidentally, I think this role for Degeneres really announces her as a comedy heavyweight, if her show a few years ago didn't. Perhaps I'm late in catching on :-). This isn't to say "Nemo" is high-brow humor, but it manages a level that I think is perfect for both kids and adults to laugh at, most of them coming from Dory who's a quirky mix of comedy relief, odd-ball character, and dramatic seat. With her rests the majority of the comedy, but also an added element of the satisfaction that comes from her character's resolution. It seems too that a lot of comedy movies lack a basic silliness; as if they're unable or unwilling to go there, and rely on vollying insults back and forth for two hours. "Nemo" brings back the silly and it pays off.

The movie might be viewed as a little skewed against Australians, as another reviewer has mentioned, but I think this is an innocent quirk of the movie and has nothing to do with trying to slant Australians. There is a pelican in the movie who is Australian and is not in anyway stupid or bumbling like the Dentist.

You'll probably also miss Willem Dafoe voicing Gill, I know I did. Maybe I wasn't expecting it; but the tank in the Dentist's office is a neat little microcosm of the ocean in terms of learning how to survive, alliances, rights-of-passage, etc.

All in all, you can watch it for these different levels, or you can sit back and laugh. My only gripe with the movie is the beginning which is far too scary for kids (reminds me of Bambi walking around the forest calling out, "Mother! Mother!"), but if you have the DVD you can skip by this part without missing a beat.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: finding nemo has the best animation ever!!!
Review: I love this movie and i am willing to say that
Lord Of The Rings 3 can be throwed right in the bin
when it comes to animation cause Finding nemo is pure quality.

The good thing about Finding Nemo is that you dont have to wait
about 8 hours before something happens like in the trilogy of Lord Of The Rings.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Blown Away by Pixar!!
Review: I now understand why this DVD has been a top seller! I know people are nodding their heads in disgust to know that I gave a Disney movie five stars. Well, my husband (who is 57 I might add) gave it "one-thousand stars." (Put aside the fact that I love everything Disney. This movie stands alone as a great film! And certainly not all Disney movies win four stars from me.) The most noticeable element of this movie is the vibrant colors that were used in the animation. I thought I was right there swimming in the sea along with the other fish! The story line also deserves a mention because there was never a boring moment. Disney deserves a "bravo" for implementing handicaps into the film and using them to show that anything can be achieved even if you have a "lucky fin." The search for Nemo leads to many adventures and new friends that both children and adults alike will be captivated equally. Don't be mistaken into believing that this film is only for children. It is an "everyone" movie, and it is a "feel good" movie. To summarize, this movie is simply a LOT of fun to watch. I would watch it more than once in the same day and I can't say that for too many movies.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Finding Nemo - find the Australian!
Review: This movie is typical Disney fare. It's funny, heart-warming, thought-provoking and the ending (where Marlin finds Nemo) is pretty much guaranteed to bring a tear to your eye.

It really is a *good* movie, and I'd recommend it if you just want to watch a funny movie and enjoy it.

However, if you want an accurate movie, then this isn't the one for you. Oh, it's accurate in the way the fish movie and such. But this movie is set on the Great Barrier Reef off of the east coast of Australia.

So, why are all the characters bar two voiced by Americans?

And why are the ones who are voiced by Australians (Bill Hunter as the Dentist and Barry Humphries as Bruce the Great White Shark) the comic relief?

To me, this stinks of the American policy of knocking my country and making us out to be nothing more than a lot of yahoos and idiots. If I was going to write and film a movie about a Texas rancher, I certainly wouldn't have Australian actors playing the major parts.

But, I suppose, Disney being the wealthy and powerful company it is, they have no need for accuracy of that kind in their movies. After all, who cares as long as it makes money?
