Finding Nemo

If I could give this an 11 I would definitely the best animated movie of all time, the soul, heart, and emotion is all at the forefront while the movie doesn’t forget about humor eithertruly the best Pixar has to offer

The movie is decently fun and definitely good for kids but the jokes really fall flat a lot of the time. Dory is semi likable but can be too much at times also more likable than funny. The journey to the dentists office in Sydney Australia is the most interesting parts to watch, however the scenes with Nemo in the dentist's office are not as interesting and most of the characters are forgettable. The leader of the group is probably the only stand out in the office and even he is just an okay character. It's a decent movie just a little overrated maybe i'll watch it again see if anything changes

Finding Nemo: 6 out of 10: As a kid's movie Finding Nemo is great. If somehow your munchkins don't already own a copy, have the toys or God forbid seen the ice show (there is something about fish on ice that's a bit creepy. Funny but creepy.) Feel free to buy a copy. You'll get your moneys worth, as the little animatrons will undoubtedly view it endlessly. But as an adult with no little minds of my own to feed the movie left me wanting. For one thing I've seen it before... about a hundred times before. Parent loses kid, kid loses dog, dog loses family, family loses toy, and so forth. Then the endless journey filled with danger, setbacks and endless comic relief characters begins. Finding Nemo, at least narratively, doesn't bring anything new to the party. The fact that Pixar themselves are guilty of using this exact same plot in all their movies doesn't help matters. (Pixar's next feature The Incredibles would actually break this trend somewhat and is the most adult friendly toon of theirs to date) The simple fact is after being spoiled by Shrek (or even Ice Age) I like my kids films to be more accommodating to adults. Not that some things don't work very well indeed (Bruce the 12 step shark and the "mine, mine, mine," seagulls are particularly effective). It's just that the whole film had a cloying sentimentality I usually associate with NBC Olympic coverage or a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie about a Depression Christmas. That said kids will love it. The animation is spectacular. And as these things go it certainly is very well done. Just not my cup of tea I guess. I prefer my fish with a little more bite… and lemon… and butter.

a horribly overrated film that delvers a lame story and tries to use star power to make it appeal to older audiences and tries to be a serious animated drama while at the same time making wise crack jokes, the result a terrible combination

A painfully boring movie. Characters are all unlikable and bland. Makes me want to go into a lake and kill some fish.
