Summary: ~Best Pixar Movie I Ever Watched!~
Review: Pixar movies have always been great, but this is the best so far!! Finding Nemo is mainly about three fishes- Marlin, Nemo, and Dory. Nemo gets kidnapped (or 'fishnapped') by a scuba diver and gets put in an aquarium in a dentist's office. Marlin is Nemo's father and of course like any other father, he loves his son and tries to find him. Dory is Marlin's forgetful partner. They meet all sorts of fish and other sea creatures. (turtles, sea gulls, whales, etc.) One day with the help of Nemo's new friends in the aquarium, Nemo escapes by going down a drain that leads to the sea. He meets Dory and Marlin and everything goes back to normal.
The graphics were really good, and the humor got me hysterical in the movie theater! There were no bad parts or anything, and I love this movie!

Summary: A Nautical Adventure
Review: Probably in my Top 3 films of the year Finding Nemo suprised me in on an unimaginable level. A complete left turn from the computer wizards at Pixar this almost real film ranks in among my favorite films of all time. The story immerses you into the deepest realms of the ocean. The coral reef scenes are spectacualr to view, especially on HD televisions, and the sound is great too. The cast headed by Albert Brooks, and the scene stealing Ellen Degeneres, was awesome (Ellen being the best) The film is probably one of the funniest films I have ever seen, and the film doesn't just target children. Everyone should see this film once, if not more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful Undersea Adventure!
Review: As I have watched this film many times since it hit theaters, I can say this is one of my favorite movies. Everything in this film works: the animation flawless, the story compelling, the voice-acting perfect, the music perfectly integrated into the story. This, along with the Toy Story films, is my favorite Pixar film, and it definately deserved the Oscar for best animated feature. In fact, it perhaps was more deserving of a best picture nomination than one or two of the final five. Anyway, please get and enjoy this fine film which has everything: fine music, fine acting, fine story, and most important, a fine heart.

Summary: Latest and greatest from Pixar
Review: What a pleasure. A gripping story, characters you care about and beautiful visuals. One slight word of warning for those with sensitive children (e.g. kids who got very upset when Simba's dad dies in the Lion King) might find a couple of scenes a little scary (a shark chase and a chase by an angler fish). Pixar firing on all cylinders.

Summary: crap, pure crap
Review: What is this movie but a bunch of elves, dwarfs and fairys running around and killing each other over a wedding ring? It's all bad acting from the word go, and the music can't hype up what the story lacks. I have a theory on why people love these movies; they feel that because the directors and actors and writers try so hard to make an "Epic Saga of Biblical Proportions," that they (the movie-goers), must give the film makers positive reviews just for the effort. I am different. I will not give good reviews to a movie just because it's ten billion hours long. Good is good, fairyish is fairyish and my time is too important, as is yours, to be wasted on this midevil drivle. And now I will cast a spell. I call it the "I'm to influenced by movie advertising and special effects to think for myself spell." See, it's already working. Now go out and see the whole trilogy, fairy.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A GREAT family movie. Even above average for adults!
Review: The kiddies will obviously love this one, but the adults will at least not be bored by it. For kids, this may be one of the best EVER. For adults, it doesn't have quite the interest-holding story level of some earlier PIXAR or Disney movies, but that's okay. It's still very entertaining all around and funny to boot!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pixar rules!
Review: This film really touched me. Filled with laughs, sadness, and adventures. It starts off sad when a clownfish named Marlin lost his wife and children by a barracuda. Only one child survived and that child is Nemo. Ever since what happened to his family Marlin became too strict with Nemo. That changed when Nemo is captured by scuba divers and taken to a fish tank in a dentist's office. While chasing after Nemo Marlin bumps into the hilarious blue fish, Dory who has short-term memory and really made me laugh. The adventure starts from there.

In this very good animated movie Marlin and Dory come across vegetarian sharks, a underwater monster, a school of blue fish, jellyfish, surfing sea turtles, a whale, pelicans, and seagulls. While these two are searching Nemo is guided by other fish like Gill the angelfish, a starfish, and many other fish who try to save him from the dentist's neice who likes the deaths of any fish.

I think Pixar are doing very well with these movies. Their movies are very well animated to make the characters actually look real and not so cartoonish. If you love this pixar movie you will also like other pixar movies like Toy Story, Bugs Life, and Monsters Inc. Those movies have just as many laughter, tears, and joy as this one!This movie can give you ideas about father-son relationships, spoiled kids, and trust. Check it out!

Summary: Bruce is the Best!
Review: Just a quick review to highlight the good and bad. Number one the animation.
Wow!!! I was drawn into a magical world under the sea! Truly spectacular animation!!! In some ways the water and physics of water behave more "lifelike" than real water!!! Astounding, although anyone who is an avid PC gamer would have seen the extent of water effects in 3-D animation by now. Second, the voice acting. Some great performances, some instantly recognisable such as Albert Brooks or Geoffrey Rush. And the jokes are generally not crass or rude, in some instances however only adults will "get it"!!! but it's always safe for the kids.
The audio is great with a deep full bass and dynamic audio utilization through all ranges. The video quality is also great with sharp and distinct colours and contrasts. "Reds" look paritculary good. The one complaint I have is with the "blues" of Dory, Ellen DeGeneres. It seems that they are so bright that they are not defined as a result.She seems to be blending into whatever ocean environment she finds herself.
The characters that Marlin meets are for the most part interesting. My favourites are however the three sharks led by Bruce, a Great White with a wonderful Aussie accent, who is the leader of a self-help group promoting goodwill between fish and sharks. "Remember, fish are friends, not food!" the groups motto is recited at every meeting!!! I suppose i would have prefered it if they has spent more time with Bruce and his companions or possibly spent more time at the "paaaahty".
All in all, "Finding Nemo" is a fun adventure, (2nd on my list after Monsters Inc), and should delight all children. A friend of mine's son has seen it at least 30 times in the last month, so I suppose he would be the best critic and his opinion the most prudent.
