Summary: "NOT" FOR KIDS ONLY !
Review: FANTASTIC MOVIE. THE COLOR WAS VIVID. THE CHARACTERS WERE FUNNY.
NOW THAT I HAVE FOUND NEMO, HE HAS BEEN ADDED TO MY DVD COLLECTION. DON'T HESITATE TO ADD HIM TO YOURS.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: too adult for children, too childish for adults
Review: Let me start out by saying that I haven't even seen this, and I already know it is a piece of corporate trash. I actually got a mini preview of it by hearing a cassette dramatization, one of Disney's usual props to sell it's videos. It's humor is too grown-up, sophisticated, and ultimately, gross, for children. It is what you would find in a movie like American Pie, or some other less sexual teenage flick, only slightly dumbed down for children. I can't see the animation, so I have no comments to make on that. I actually like Albert Brooks' character, but he was about all that saved this from being utterly stupid and unbearable. The story line is unbelievably formulaeic, even more so than some of Disney's other efforts. I'm not even going to explain it, since the abundance of reviews here make the main plot elements clear. The characterization is cardboard, no, make that paper-flat and uninteresting, except for the sympathetic Marlin. The humor is disgustingly subpar, as I've said, it's toilet humor for children. Really, people. Do we actually want to teach our kids these kinds of things are funny? I'd never thought I'd see the day when Disney had to resort to almost swearing in it's movies to hold children's interests. That is absolutely unforgivable. And referring to a volcano as an invitation to produce phlegm? My, how pathetic! Personally, I don't find it ammusing in the least.

Summary: Nemo's Mom Died Which Really Makes Me Mad!
Review: Melissa Smith, I hate animal violence too. I think that the character Coral is the most beautiful creation in the film and it's really bad that that beautiful creation was killed at the very beginning of the film. Not only does Nemo's mom, Coral die, but his brothers and sisters, Marlin Junior and Coral Junior die too. The only member of Nemo's family that survives is Marlin, his father. This movie has too much animal violence in it. Even more than you say, Melissa Smith. Coral was perhaps the only female creation I like in this movie, any of the others did not look so pretty, like Dory. She is not a cutesie, Coral is, but no other female in this film looks as cute as she. So sad. Disney and Pixar did do better than this, notably Toy Story and A Bug's Life. That crazy old fish ate up Coral and the kids who were going to be Nemo's brothers and sisters and I don't like it. Bad Clown-fish-eating fish.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fine animated feature
Review: When a clownfish named Nemo is captured by scuba divers, his neurotic father, aided by a blue tang with memory problems, must overcome his fears to find his son. While Marlin and Dory follow his trail, Nemo becomes acquainted with the other fish in the dentist's office tank and learns that he is destined to become a gift for the dreaded "fish-killer" Darla, the dentist's niece.

Though ostensibly a children's film, there is plenty here to engage adults as well. The computer animation is magnificent; the colors and textures of the seascape and its inhabitants are gorgeous. The story itself is rather touching and includes many jokes and references that will go right over the heads of little ones but will be appreciated by the adults in the room.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is the best movie....
Review: Finding Nemo is definatly one of the greatest Disney And Pixar movies I've seen so far. The movie is great for younger kids as well as older people. The actors voices fit the characters very well. Ellen Degenerse is the voice of Dory the blue fish, she does a wounderful job. She really brings the Dory th life. The whole movie is really funny. At times I think the movie could of been a little bit better like there could of been more about when Nemo after he got saved. Or when the other fish excape from the fish tank. Overall the movie was great. I would recommend this movie to people of all ages. The way that the movie comes together is really cool. One of the best parts is when Marlin and Dory meet the squirt and the other turtles. Squirt is the baby turtle and he is cute and funny.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kinda funny...heart warming
Review: I heard so many good compliments on this movie. It was a buzz for a very long time. The bad thing about this is that my hopes get too high but all in all it was pretty funny and I enjoyed watching it. A great disney!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: nice movie, but let's not get carried away.
Review: I was also amazed by how good this movie looked. But then I saw the extra "making of nemo" video on the dvd where the director says the movie has been in the works for like the last 10 or 12 years. And in the credits, they list about 3000 people. And then I thought, hey, these Mars projects that NASA just landed on Mars..I don't think they took as much time or as many people to do that.
Don't get me wrong, I love the movie. Ellen was incredible. I never get tired of watching it. But let's just keep things in perspective.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best Pixar / Disney yet!
Review: Another gem for the whole family. The graphics from Pixar continue to improve over their previous masterpieces. The water, above and below, looks fantastic. Details such as subtle light effects and small floating particles make the underwater shots "real". The storyline is "baited" with one-liners and innuendoes. Ellen Degeneres is perfect as the "short-term memory loss" Dory and the aquarium gang is excellent.

The bonus material is very good, especially the "documentary" with a surprising performance with Jean-Michel Cousteau. The virtual aquariums are a neat idea.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful !!
Review: I have to admit I had my doubts. I'm not a fan of most Disney movies, I'm a grown woman who doen't have any kids, and I almost never watch child-oriented movies. I was really pleasantly surprised! The storyline is basically the adventures of a father fish (Marlin) and his new-found friend Dorie looking for his missing son (Nemo). The movie has a lot of human emotion associated with looking for a missing child. I can't believe this movie had me laughing out loud AND crying. The graphics alone are worth watching this movie. I remember thinking about all the research that had to go into making the ocean, fish, and other sea life look so believable. It truly is visually stimulating--I looked forward to each and every scene. I think this is a good movie for both kids and adults!!!
