Summary: Not Good
Review: I did not like this movie at all. At some parts it is so childish that no one over 4 could watch it. Then it would go to something that would be impossible for any child to understand. This made the movie to hard to follow. The only real entertaining part of the movie was Dori the fish because she was extremely funny. Also the beginning was good, but it was far too much for children to handle.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I have a 3 year old, you'll need your own excuse
Review: I know, Disney drivel, blah, blah...
But I challeng you see it, just see it before you quickly dismiss this one.

Thoroughly entertaining, funny, moving, and as usual, full of jokes and references that we older folks can really appreciate.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I laughed...I cried!!
Review: Ever lost your kid in the store?...The first time I saw the movie (theater), I didn't care much for it. First of all, I had to keep getting up with the kids to take them to the bathroom. Then the subject matter. It kept reminding me of the time I lost my son in Wal Mart, at the amusement park, then the time...you get the idea! I cried when Marlin lost Nemo.

Then the movie had the nerve to come out on DVD! I couldn't go through Borders without seeing it displayed somewhere; and of course the kids wanted to buy it. Being the wonderful mom I am, I bought it. We went home and watched it together. I was able to really get into it and watch the parts I missed...now I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finding Nemo
Review: I think that Finding Nemo is Pixar's best movie until now, and it has laughs, thrills and touching scenes.
The visual effects, the music, the art direction and the sound effects are great, and it would be great to watch it on a huge Widescreen TV.
The characters are memorable and entertaining, especially Dory, and there are many funny quotes too like 'Bruce is here!'.
I haven't seen the DVD yet, but there seems to be lot of exciting extras to explore.
I had waited for Finding Nemo in nearly one year since I found the first and few pictures on Google, and it was really worth the wait!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: AWESOME MOVIE!!!!!!
Review: I bought this movie only because Pixar made it. I did not care for the Nemo's father in this movie. He was just a worry wart who talks to much. Reminds me of woody allen. It is a tremendously awesome movie for kids of all ages. Very very funny scenes that you will seem to laugh at over & over again. I still think Pixars best movie's are Toy Story 1&2.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun movie, but not for young children
Review: This movie is another excellent Pixar production. The themes of losing a mother and getting kidnapped may be too much for kids.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SO DAM COOL!!!!!
Review: Finding nemo, is bomb!!! i can watch over and over, Dory is my favorite. get it today its for all ages...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Underwater Treasure
Review: "Finding Nemo" finds the Pixar animation studio back in top form after their somewhat disappointing (I thought) "Monsters, Inc." This group has always had a knack for finding source material that will give them full freedom in unleashing their animation imaginations (the toy-chest world of "Toy Story," the insect world of "A Bug's Life,") and in "Finding Nemo" they take us underwater and show us the beauty, wonder, and danger of the sea. There are any number of jaw-dropping set pieces in this film: a field of jellyfish, a shark attack, a mass escape from a fishing net. As usual, Disney fills its film with liberal messages about the treatment of wildlife and the environment, much welcome and needed messages in my opinion. But great animation alone cannot sell me on an animated movie--that's done with the quality of the story and characters, and "Finding Nemo" delivers there as well. The Pixar movies are never as cloying as the traditionally animated films produced by Disney--there's always a drier, cheekier brand of humour, and you get the feeling that just as many jokes are aimed at the adult audience as at the kids. The voices are terrific, the story is quick and funny, and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing.

Grade: A

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Finding Never!
Review: I read the hype about this movie and the 5 star reviews and thought...yeah, this would be great for my DVD collection and my 5 year old [Ahem. I meant, I bought this PRIMARILY for my daughter!] I was half right! She loved it. Watched it over and over again. However, she wanted to know what happened to "Coral and the little eggs" since this was not shown. One was left to figure out that they were eaten.

I fail to see what harm showing them being swallowed [no need for blood and gore] would have done. It is a fact of life! The big fish eat the little fish. The sooner the little ones understand this, the better! Funny enough, we see the heroes swallowed by a whale....hmmm...a bit of double standard here.

The hero's partner is a forgetful cutesy blue fish who can read. Enough said!
Having said that, the movie was for children. It should be rated ages 10 and under and not G. It was not funny, it just sort of moved along. It lacked the depth of story of the classics like the Lion King, Shrek, Toy Story I & II etc. The animation was however excellent with very good sound!

All in all, I would have given the picture 2 stars for effort, lack of proper research and the idiotic cutesy sharks! Really now! Nemo's dad told him that the ocean was dangerous. This would have been an ideal time to portray the shark as the dangerous stranger not to be trusted or played with! But what do we get? We find FRIENDLY, Vegetarian Sharks! Only the USA would have a sharks anonymous where the shark is giving up fish. LOL!! And what's with these hippy turtles? As the youth today say... DUH!!

Why the obsession with dental procedures and pain?...what is this, an ad against Dentists? It only succeeds in making the trip to the dentist appear like a trip to torture land. Come now, surely Pixar can do better than this!

I added one star to make three because my daughter watched it over and over.

If you want a movie to entertain your 5 year old, then buy it. If you want a classic to add to you DVD collection, get the Lion King platinum edition, Shrek or Toy Story I &II instead.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny, captivating and educative
Review: Finding Nemo is an unforgettable movie. Very close to perfection. I'am an Reef Aquarium entusiast and were amazed by the perfect details in the movie. Both children and adults will love it, for sure.
