A nice sequel to Finding Nemo

Rating: 7/10 (19 July 2016)

Before seeing Finding Dory in the cinema, I bought and watched the DVD Finding Nemo at home last week as I didn't watch the latter 13 years ago.
While the setting of Finding Nemo is an ocean, most scenes of Finding Dory take place in an ocean park / conservation centre. This is a nice surprise to me, as I thought the director and the production crew would still use an ocean as the setting.
As for the characters, Dory is as cute in this sequel as in Finding Nemo. Nemo and Marlin are not the focus this time, though they are still lovely. The new characters Hank, Destiny and Bailey successfully make this sequel more fun. In fact, the scenes that Hank changes his colour and even his shape to hide himself are hilarious. Having said that, I'm not sure a real octopus can really change its colour like what a chameleon does. Also, can an octopus in reality survive without water? Well, after all, this is an animation and we should not over-emphasise logic, or we should watch National Geographic on TV instead.
I think the plot about Hank and Dory being 'attacked' by kids trying to catch them is thought-provoking and educational.
Personally I like the sequel more than the first one. And among all the characters, I like Bailey best. .
I chose the 2D Cantonese version. I'd love to watch the 3D English version later to see if I have the same feelings towards this animation.
