Below you will find a temporary review for this film. The real (better, more complete) review will be online very soon.
'Finding Nemo' is another great collaboration between Disney and Pixar. 'Toy
Story' and 'Toy Story 2', 'A Bug's Life' and 'Monsters Inc.' were all great
entertaining movies and this one tops them all although it is a close call.
I don't want to say too much about the story but some things I will tell
you. Marlin (voice by Albert Brooks) is a clown fish with one son, Nemo.
Nemo is caught by divers and ends up in an aquarium in Sidney. He meets some
other fish and together they make all kind of plans to escape. In the
meanwhile Marlin has started his search to find Nemo (Alexander Gould)
together with Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a fish with short term memory loss.
All kind of new characters are introduced, like turtles who talk like the
guys from 'Dude, Where's My Car?' and a shark with the motto: "Fish are
friends, not food!" I laughed almost constantly. The funniest thing in the
movie is Dory. Ellen DeGeneres does a great job with her voice and she gets
most of the laughs.
The story, the characters, the funny moments, the most beautiful animations,
a great score from Thomas Newman and a charm that only movies like this have
make this a movie for the whole family to enjoy.
