DVD Reviews of Finding Nemo (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)

DVD Review: "My Bubbles!"
Summary: 5 Stars

Ok, this movie is totally awesome! Wonderful touching, funny story line, beautiful effects, (makes you feel like you are in the ocean), and so much more. It is about a boy named Nemo, who gets seperated from his father, and they both go on quite a journey to go back home. You feel all emotions of the characters, and you love all of the characters as well! And I must say that Ellen did such a wonderfull job on this movie, she was perfect for the role. Really, all the characters where perfect. I do not have children, but I am a child at heart and love this movie. This is so awesome and would highly recommend for any one! A must see!

DVD Review: Such a great story!
Summary: 4 Stars

My son LOVES this movie. Yes, there are some parts in there that are a tad scary for little guys, but overall it's a heart-warming, adventurous tale!

DVD Review: Here Fishy Fishy Fishy Fish
Summary: 3 Stars

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 kid 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.


DVD Review: Good
Summary: 4 Stars

It shipped pretty fast, which i loved, but it was a little more scratched than I was hoping for. Overall the movie still played and my son loves it. That's all that really matters!

DVD Review: The Best Children's Film. (that period to the left is important)
Summary: 5 Stars

Of all the children's movies I own, my daughter loves Finding Nemo the best and that in turn has had me watch Finding Nemo about 327 times. Thankfully it is a wonderful movie and the more I watched it the more I came to appreciate all the wonderful nuances of the story.

Basically this is a story of two clown fish: a father and a son. The son, Nemo, is captured by a diver who is also a dentist. Nemo winds up in the dentist's aquarium. Nemo's dad begins a quest to find his son making all kinds of friends along the way while Nemo and the rest of the aquarium fish plot how to escape.

It's a wonderful story and no wonder it has made hundreds of millions of dollars.

In addition to the great story, the visual rendering is just plain gorgeous. Everything is so crisp and vivid - it's like being in the ocean or in an aquarium.

If you have a child - do yourself a favor and get this for your kid. It has a ton of cautionary tales built in like "don't go with strangers" ---- my daughter keeps asking, "I want to see Nemo going with a stranger." and she buries her head against my chest when Nemo gets captured.

In addition, when your kid gets hooked on Nemo at least you can retain your sanity after watching it 200+ times....there are some shows out there that would just plain drive me nuts if I had to watch more than once. Nemo fortunately, is not one of them.

Get it and enjoy with your kid.

Description of Finding Nemo (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)

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
