A funny family film for 2003

Rating: 10/10 (28 July 2005)

*** 1/2 Alexander Gould, Albert Brooks, Ellen DeGeneres, Willem Dafoe, Stephen Root, Geoffrey Rush, Bob Peterson, Barry Humphries and Andrew Stanton. Directed by Andrew Stanton and Lee Unkrich.
Following the trail of the past years were animated movies ruled the box office for weeks at a time is Finding Nemo, Pixar's best movie so far. The movie about a paranoid father figure (Brooks) who finally lets his eager son Nemo (Gould) go to school. Nemo later is taken away by Scubadivers,Marlin now headstrong swims out to sea in search of his son, instead he meets up with an amnesia troubled fish Dory (DeGeneres). Together the two set off to find Marlin's lost son before it's to late. To be honest the story is a reminder of Shrek two odd balls meet up and are forced to be friends and go on an adventure. An over used story idea but none the less a good movie. Pixar studios surpass my expectations in an animated movie. My final rating 8/10.
