Description

From the Academy Award(R)-winning creators of TOY STORY and MONSTERS, INC. (2001, Best Animated Short Film, FOR THE BIRDS), it's FINDING NEMO, a hilarious adventure where you'll meet colorful characters that take you into the breathtaking underwater world of Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Nemo, an adventurous young clownfish, is unexpectedly taken to a dentist's office aquarium. It's up to Marlin (Albert Brooks), his worrisome father, and Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a friendly but forgetful regal blue tang fish, to make the epic journey to bring Nemo home. Their adventure brings them face-to-face with vegetarian sharks, surfer dude turtles, hypnotic jellyfish, hungry seagulls, and more. Marlin discovers a bravery he never knew, but will he be able to find his son? FINDING NEMO's breakthrough computer animation takes you into a whole new world with this undersea adventure about family, courage, and challenges. Take the plunge into FINDING NEMO, a "spectacularly beautiful animated adventure for everyone" -- David Sheehan, CBS-TV


A delightful undersea world unfolds in Pixar's animated adventure Finding Nemo. When his son Nemo is captured by a scuba-diver, a nervous-nellie clownfish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) sets off into the vast--and astonishingly detailed--ocean to find him. Along the way he hooks up with a scatterbrained blue tang fish named Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), who's both helpful and a hindrance, sometimes at the same time. Faced with sharks, deep-sea anglers, fields of poisonous jellyfish, sea turtles, pelicans, and much more, Marlin rises above his neuroses in this wonderfully funny and nonstop thrill ride--rarely does more than 10 minutes pass without a sequence destined to become a theme park attraction. Pixar continues its run of impeccable artistic and economic success (their movies include Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Toy Story 2, and Monsters, Inc). Also featuring the voices of Willem Dafoe, Geoffrey Rush, and Allison Janney. --Bret Fetzer

Summary: Great Movie

I purchased Finding Nemo for a friend. Her Dautghter liked the movie so much she watched it until the disk she had was scrathed.She recieved this copy of Finding Nemo on Christmas Day and enjoyed it as much as the last copy of it she had. The special effects are great and a treat for both adults and children. There are elements of the plot that adults would understand and enjoy. The darker parts of the the story,such as what happened to Nemos's mom were handled very well. I would reccomend this movie to an adult who wished to get a child a nice movie they could enjoy together.

Summary: Compared to other Pixars = 3/5 || Compared to other animated films = 5/5

Finding Nemo is a visual feast, the sound is exciting and fresh and both serve to draw you into the undersea world of Finding Nemo. From any other animation studio, this film would have earned an enthusiastic 5/5 stars. Compared to other Pixar films, though, the story and emotions just don't have the same impact as the Toy Stories, Ratatouille, or The Incredibles.

Son Nemo and father Marlin are the only surviving members of a clownfish family, living on the edge of a beautiful coral reef. Marlin is especially protective of Nemo and when his first day of school goes disasterously wrong - Nemo is captured by a diver and placed in a salt-water fish tank - Marlin vows to find and rescue Nemo. What follows is a series of adventures that Marlin and Dorie (a friend met along the way) survive on their quest.

As mentioned, the visuals are fantastic, and the animation of the various sea animals is well-visioned. It's always a tricky business to anthropomorphise non-mammalian creatures, but these fish (and turtles starfish, etc.) are both clearly the aquatic species they represent and clearly emote human feelings. The voice acting is, as expected for a Pixar film, fantastic, with perfectly envisioned characters voiced by Albert Brooks (as Marlin), Willem Dafoe (as a fellow aquarium prisoner willing to risk Nemo's life for a chance for them all to escape), and a flock of seagulls, whose only word is "Mine". My favourite scene is that depicted on the box of this 2-disc special edition - a surfer dude turtle ("Don't hurl on the shell, man, I just had it waxed!") who shows Marlin the way to Sydney Harbour, last known location of the boat into which Nemo was abducted.

For a casual viewer, there is a lot of adventure and visual surprises to entertain and delight anyone of any age. However, for the average parent forced to watch repeated viewings of their obsessive child's movie-of-the-moment, it doesn't hold up as well on repeated viewings. First, the ditzy Dorrie's forgetfulness wears thin. Secondly, the structure of the film is a sequence of one set-piece action scene after another, and it gets repetative. Young viewers, of course, will not notice either of these criticisms and, if my 4.5-year-old is any indication, will want to watch the film again and again. (Curse you Pixar! If my son doesn't get enough exercise it's your fault!)

This 2-disc edition has some nifty extras, although not as many as the Incredibles or Toy Story's special editions. Perhaps the most amusing is a short mocumentary where Jean-Michel Cousteau tries to explain the ecosystem of a coral reef and Dorrie and Marlin keep interrupting ("Zis would never have happened to Papa....") Other highlights are the deleted/alternate versions of scenes and the director's commentary, which is more interesting and informative than the standard commentary.
