Summary: The Lovely Fish
Review: As a young mother of two kids, I found Finding Nimo a very interesting movie. It's one of the best family films I have ever seen. This moive was an exciting,funny,comedy and adventure. Dory was a funny fish, but a trouble maker. Dory always put Nimo's father in trouble. Even though they took lots of time looking for Nimo,at the end of the movie they found him alive. Everyone was happy - including the viewers!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finding Nemo
Review: Delightfully filled with the fading family genre, Finding Nemo is definitly on to recommend. It has characters that we can relate to, aren't boring, and are overall impressive. The storyline makes sense, the animation is dazzling. What more can a person ask for in a movie? This film doesn't get nominated for best picture, we must give sympathy to the Pixar team. Buy it. Laugh. Cry. It's time you deserved something more than Hollywood's usual half-penny offerings.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surely it means more than Fish and Chips!
Review: While you were thinking what new ideas could Pixar come up with after Toy Story and Monster Inc.? They put the answer right at your face. This time Pixar brought us into the marine world at the Barrier Reef where fishes struggle to survive and...well...have fun. Finding Nemo provides one of the most interesting and entertaining underwater experience to the audience after the spectacular success of the Little Mermaid years back. Technology has changed a lot since the Little Mermaid and what we have now are computer generated sea creatures that swim and talk like humans. The most interesting part of Finding Nemo was it managed to weave both human and "marine life" jokes together. The crown fish should be able to tell jokes is one of the very good examples. Also the Whale language is witty and amazingly funny. It is amazing the Pixar could put in so much charcter into beings that we don't think about much in life. The forgetful Dory, the Shark that wants to live a life with fishes as friends not food, fishes that want to break away from the acquarium etc. there are so much thoughts in the character building that you just feel like "hey they are so real". Lastly, since the movie has so much Australian reference and gags on the Aussies, it is even more fun to watch it in Sydney than in other parts of the world.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: PIXAR JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER
Review: the pixar studios are just awesome and they only get better and better. finding nemo is no exception. this is a movie that is meant to be seen by a whole family. it is as entertaining for adults as it is fo rchildren. it is a movie about the relationships between parents and their children. however i really believe that it shows how important it is that people should care about each other. it is important to have a family so you know that there will be someone there that will look out for you and go to the ends of the earth for you. it is just as important to have friends and friendships. the fish dory is the perfect example because a friend can help you out of a tough situation, and also lend a helping hand because things are easier to deal with when you have someone to go through it with you. this whole movie is about relationships. also it shows so much about family. it shows how parents are very protective of their children, and with good reason, but it also shows that parents need to give their children a little room also. parents have to let their kids grow up and find things out on their own. then on the other hand it tries to show kids that sometimes parents do know what they are talking about and that we should listen to them every once in a while, or at least think about what they are telling us. this movie is fun, touching, and educational. it says so much about family and the importance of relationships and i think everyone can learn or take something away from this movie. definitely on of the years best, i cant wait to buy it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Greatest Pixar movie ever!
Review: This movie was better than any of the previous Pixar movies.

This movie just makes one happy, with a wonderful introducing Pixar clip. This clip unlike preivous ones is pretty old, when Pixar was much simpler. This really shows how the animation evolves on one hand, and makes a happy introduction to the movie.

The movie itself is great because.. it is never boring! One problem with many great movies is that you love 90% of them and then you get to this place which is boring, but the script writers made every line of the movie one that you can say again and immediately know where it came from.

Great movie! Recommended for everyone!

Summary: Comercial rubbish and not suitable for children
Review: I found this new Pixar movie to be very offensive. This movies should contain subjects directed to children, and not offensive jokes that only adults can understand. It is very irritating that Disney is losing it's magic. Kids should be the aim of these pictures, not stupid 15 year old and older guys.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mice, Lions, Pigs, and Deer -- and now, its the fish's turn!
Review: No, there was no violence. No, there was no sex. And no, there was no swearing...Oh, and wait a second...this movie made almost $350 million? Doesn't that show you something America? Movies need not be bombarded by bloody images to make a few bucks; all you need is a good script, a couple of talented actors, and an inspiring vision. Sure, the movie is "supposed" to be directed for 5 year olds, but with such captivating art and interesting witty dialogue, this movie has become (without a doubt) one of the timeless masterpieces of our generation. I commend anyone and everyone (young or old) to either rent of buy this film because it warms the heart with something that movies have seemed to have lost in recent years. If given the option, I would give this movie 6 out of 5 stars because of its lighthearted, feel good nature which warms the heart and the soul.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loved It!
Review: I saw this in the theater and I must say it was great! I laughed out loud for the first time in ages, especially in a movie. The animation is wonderful, the story is touching, humorous, exciting, and fun. Not just for kids.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pixar's Winning Streak Continues...
Review: ... making me wonder just how horrid they'll have to get when they finally crash. I mean, no one can keep making quality products forever, can they?

Monsters, Inc., wasn't quite as good (to me) as some of the prior offerings, but with Finding Nemo Pixar jumps right back into its top form. One of the things that Pixar seems to understand far better than their patron Disney is how to strike a balance between "kid friendly" and "stupidly pandering". In Finding Nemo, we once more have a twin-plotline movie (just as we did in Toy Story 2), following the adventures both of little Nemo and of his terribly worried father. The characters are nice people without being insipid, and the opposition is mostly the world rather than other people.

One of the nicer things about the Pixar movies is that in general they don't always make adults out to be either totally stupid or totally the enemy. Nemo's father is overprotective, but dedicated, courageous, and capable of learning. Nemo, at the same time, is given a chance to grow out of what his overprotective father taught him, and the two are both better for the experience. Much of the current crop of movies and TV shows tend to be exceedingly divisive -- in kid's shows adults are either absent, idiots, or impediments, in adult's shows kids are either absent, plot tokens, or annoyances, and in shows targeted for the "young adult/teen" bracket, both younger kids and adults are impediments/ The Enemy (to the eternal refrain of "they just don't UNDERSTAND!").

Pixar avoids playing that particular game; characters get to be who they are without assigned roles. You can have good and wise adults as well as stupid and hostile ones. Both sides can, and do, make mistakes. And by doing so, Pixar makes shows that are much more fun AND capable of much longer endurance. I wish other filmmakers would take a look and see what Pixar does right here. We could use more Pixars.
