score another one for Pixar; a blast from start to finish

Rating: Null/10 (6 June 2003)

Enchanting animated feature about a not so funny clownfish living with the anxiety of being a single father. His parenting skills are unexpectedly put to the test when circumstances force him to go on an impossible trek through the ocean depths to try and rescue his only son. Yet another engaging, heartfelt tale from Pixar Studios that works just as well for kids as it does for adults; a breathtaking, imaginative view of the aquatic world overflowing with clever ideas, astonishing visuals, and pleasant humor, aided by a talented cast of voices. Brooks is perfect as a neurotic, overprotective father, DeGeneres even better as his voluble, scatterbrained sidekick; irresistible entertainment for Pixar fans. ***Â½
