Good, But Far From Pixar's Best

Rating: 7/10 (26 November 2016)

The friendly but forgetful blue tang fish begins a search for her long-lost parents, and everyone learns a few things about the real meaning of family along the way.
I suspect what you get out of "Finding Dory" depends on what you put into it. I went in knowing nothing and still came away disappointed. While the movie has plenty of funny parts, and the animation is amazing, it doesn't seem all that memorable or like they really covered new ground from the first film.
And it is not just because it is a sequel. Some would argue that "Toy Story 3" was the best in that series. I doubt anyone could argue that "Dory" was anywhere near as good as "Nemo". If it weren't for some interesting new supporting character, it would have been quite a rehash. Dory, the protagonist, is not really all that interesting.
