From the creators of Father of the Pride. Nof funny

Rating: 1/10 (12 January 2005)

The CGI is fine, but this was just terrible. Kids will be bored and adults will cringe. I'm all for suspension of disbelief but why is it a given that Fish live in an underwater city with apartment buildings, televisions,movies and cell phones. They didn't even try to explain it. Usually you'll get the Flintstones kind of logic to explain cars, etc. I can understand if they make references to movies by slipping it in dialog a la Shrek. . But it is basically understood in the film that they actually watched the movies they are quoting. That's just lame. Why are they singing 'Car Wash' at the end of the movie? Oscar worked in a Whale Wash. But even forgetting that they don't even bother to be creative the story is just tedious. This is just some a scam film they can lure you in with the pedigree of big name stars doing the voices and the studio's past success with the Shrek franchise. But this film is closer to the humor of the flop TV show from Dreamworks 'Father of the Pride.' It sucks. 1/10
