What a Shark Tale

Rating: 3/10 (28 December 2004)

While this viewer enjoys animated movies with a passion. The story line of Shark Tale could use some beefing up. There was not much to the story compared to Toy Story, Monsters Inc., even Beauty and the Beast. The animation was good. The acting of Will Smith was on target. The other characters just did not measure up to a good quality animated movie. This viewer nearly fell asleep watching it. The two people in the row right in front of me did fall asleep. Even the children in the audience didn't laugh as much as in Monster's Inc. There were no shrieks of delight or of fear. My four year old grandson and six year old granddaughter were bored. They were glue to the screen when they saw the movie The Incrediables. If you plan to see this movie, watch it at a dollar cinema. Where you will not waste your money. It's bad enough just to waste your time.
