Finding Nemo

Just so we are clear, Ellen has always been awesome. She made a brave, bold move and it kinda tanked her career. I thought Ellen was done in Hollywood. Casting her in this movie was seen as a bit of a risky choice. NOBODY could have played Dori the way Ellen did. I'm 45. I think I was 21 or something when it came out. We would watch this movie all the time. Now I have a 4 year old son, and he had no idea about Finding Nemo. When we watched it, it was like magic. He laughed, he cried. He cheered and jumped up on the bed. And when it was over, he was ready to watch it again IMMEDIATELY. This movie is timeless.

This is such a classic movie can never go wrong. My toddler loved it too.

When Marlin (voice by Albert Brooks) loses his wife and most of his children to a hungry barracuda, he swears to protect the remaining child, Nemo, so that nothing ever happens to him. When Nemo is finally old enough for school, Marlin has a hard time letting go and embarrasses Nemo in front of his friends, spurring Nemo to go and touch a boat close to the reef. Before Marlin can chew Nemo out for disobeying him, Nemo is captured by a scuba diver and taken away. Marlin tries to follow the boat, but quickly loses it and is forced to rely on a fish named Dory (voice by Ellen DeGeneres), who has short-term memory loss, to show him where it went. Meanwhile, Nemo is learning all about dentistry in his new home in an aquarium in a fish tank in Sydney. As Nemo tries to help the other fish escape back to the ocean, Marlin must overcome his fears and fight his way past hungry sharks, fearsome fish in deep trenches, stinging jellyfish, whales, pelicans and stupid seagulls. Along the way, Marlin will come to learn the value of friendship and that, if you protect your children from everything, they will never get to experience anything - good or bad....I would have to say that this is my favorite Pixar film yet. I laughed my way through the whole movie and still laugh everytime I see it. Dory was by far my favorite character, (her short-term memory loss makes her absolutely hilarious!) but Pixar took the time to study and make all of the characters memorable. I am always impressed by their attention to detail and simple, yet meaningful plots. This is one of those rare films that both adults and children of all ages can truly enjoy. However, I would like to say that children of the ages of 3 and under sometimes get really scared while they are watching this film, as there are some dark scenes and sudden movements by the monster fish. Still, I would say that this one is definitely a buy for anyone - I am 27 and it is one of my favorites!

Astonishing animation, standout performances, and a story with plenty of heart make this movie a winner in the best Disney tradition.Traumatized by the loss of his wife and all but one of his children, an overanxious clownfish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) hovers obsessively over his son Nemo, stifling the boy's natural sense of adventure and curiosity and making his son miserable in the name of keeping him safe. When Nemo defies Marlin's wishes and is snatched by divers from before Marlin's eyes, the father sets out on an epic quest to find his son. Along the way, Marlin learns that sometimes the most loving thing a father can do is let go and let children take risks and have the adventures they long for. Nemo, for his part, learns that whatever his father's personal shortcomings, almost everything Marlin does is motivated by a fierce, devoted love for his son. This is the kind of movie that helps parents understand their kids and kids understand their parents--a family movie in the truest and best sense of the word.Ellen DeGenneres is absolutely hilarious and winning as Dory, the ditzy but loveable blue tang fish ("Yes, I'm a natural blue") who aids Marlin in his search despite being addled by short-term memory problems ("It runs in my family . . . Where are they?"). Brad Garrett ("Everybody Loves Raymond") and Willem Dafoe ("Last Temptation of Christ" and "Mississippi Burning") turn in nice supporting performances as two members of a tankful of fish in which Nemo finds himself.The computer-generated animation in this film is mesmerizing, but thankfully, unlike so many other movies these days, the visual effects never overwhelm the story or the characters. Instead, the animation supports the story, making Nemo and his friends more real and drawing us deeper into this incredible underwater world.
