Sweet, fun movie

Rating: 7/10 (19 April 2017)

Dory is a forgetful young fish. She was separated from her parents as a child and now she is out to find them. Through the help of a diverse bunch of friends, including a 7-tentacled octopus named Hank, she sets off to find them.
Sweet, fun movie, made as a sequel (or prequel) to Finding Nemo. Has many of the same qualities as Finding Nemo - good family fun, some great comedic moments and wonderful animation - incredibly vivid colours and seamless movement. Once again, the voice casting is spot- on and goes a long way to making the movie as good as it is.
Not quite as good as Finding Nemo though. The sentimentality in Finding Dory was laid on a bit thick and feels empty and manipulative at times. Finding Nemo felt more subtle and genuine in that regard.
