Worth watching

Rating: 7/10 (12 June 2013)

This movie is by no means perfect, but it is a good one that I have watched many times. I think I even saw it in theaters more than once. The all star cast really helps it out too. I still enjoy this movie and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys animated movies.
It's about Oscar the fish (Will Smith) who works at the Whale Wash is tired of living like a commoner and dreams about the lifestyle of the rich and famous. He works for a puffer fish named Sykes (sp?) whose business is controlled by the Shark mafia headed by Don Lino (obviously Robert Di Niro). Oscar owes Sykes a lot of money and is given one last chance to get it back for him. He tries to do so and fails and is about to be killed by the mafia's jellyfish henchman (Ziggy Marley and Doug E. Doug) and Don Lino's "vegetarian" son Lenny (Jack Black) and his brother who is trying to teach him how to be a killer. The brother is killed by an anchor dropping on him and a distraught Lenny flees. The jellyfish return to find Oscar standing over the body and think that he killed him. Oscar decides to go along with this story and is instantly famous for being the Shark Slayer. He ends up befriending and teaming up with Lenny in an attempt to keep up this appearance.
This movie has some hilarious scenes and some really funny and sneaky references to other movies and things. It is very entertaining for people of all ages and even though it is almost 10 years old, still has bright vivid colors and the animation does a great job of capturing life under the sea.
