Disappointing.

Rating: 6/10 (19 February 2005)

I would estimate...about 97% of the movie going world loved this movie.
However, I did not. I'm aware young children have higher pitched voices, but the particular children for supporting roles in this movies had voices I thought were going to bore into my brain.
The story is simple. Nemo, a young fish who is the only survivor of his siblings is dared to go out into open water, and thus is captured. His overprotective father, who seems to have Nemo alone as remaining family, naturally, goes to look for him.
From there, we're introduced to supporting characters who I found weren't much more than cheap laughs. Vegetarian sharks, ooh, that's original! All in all, the plot seems pretty much inconsequential to beautiful sweeping shots of the ocean and the coral reefs the fish call home. The scene with the jelly fish I found quite a treat to look at...but other than being yet another piece of eye candy that seems to be a trend nowadays....this movie has very little to offer.
