This movie is better when you spend your money renting Disney's Finding Nemo

Rating: 1/10 (4 October 2004)

Now keep in mind the following is my opinion and you are allowed to disagree, however may I remind you that you are also allowed to go suck a lemon.
Shark Tale (a.k.a. Shark Tale: Capitalizing on Finding Nemo) has in my opinion the humor value of a rather unfunny tuna sandwich. There are only a few redeeming values about this film, they include the fact it did not cost me more than $3.50 to watch, it eventually ended and it had many bright flashy colors. As much as I enjoy bright flashy colors (and who doesn't) the film had too many other things going against it. The humor I mentioned earlier was composed completely of bad parity, awful puns and a fart joke. Previous to this movie I was not even aware fish farted. The biggest problem that I saw was the fact that the entire movie was made up of fish (a few whales, one causation and an octopus too) where there was absolutely no need for this. Someone must of simply thought up a bad fish joke and based an entire script around it. The film could have worked at least as well with live actors or as a human cartoon. For that matter it could have been done with ring-tailed lemurs and it would not have made any difference more superficial than the movie's title.
For those of you who are still reading and actually want to know a spoiler free plot summery continue as you were. The story of this film is you basic boy fish meets girl fish film where the boy fish does not grasp the fact that the girl fish loves him, and that he loves her in return, in a slimy awkward fishy kind of way of course. On the way boy fish watches the gruesome crushing death of a shark, lies, loses girl fish, tells the truth and regains girl fish. The only real difference between this fish love story and all of those countless other fish love stories are sock puppets.
Much like a tuna sandwich this movie left a bad taste in my mouth, at least however I get to eat the aforementioned tuna sandwich.
Spoiler Alert: This movie is better when you spend your money renting Disney's Finding Nemo
