Dory (Ellen DeGeneres) is a wide-eyed, blue tang fish who suffers from memory loss every 10 seconds or so. The one thing she can remember is that she somehow became separated from her parents as a child. With help from her friends Nemo and Marlin, Dory embarks on an epic adventure to find them. Her journey brings her to the Marine Life Institute, a conservatory that houses diverse ocean species. Dory now knows that her family reunion will only happen if she can save mom and dad from captivity.

Critics Consensus

Funny, poignant, and thought-provoking, Finding Dory delivers a beautifully animated adventure that adds another entertaining chapter to its predecessor's classic story.

The central irony of Finding Dory is that Dory is a risk-taker trapped in a movie that, for all its likability, won't join her on whimsical leaps.

Who would have thought one of the deepest films ever made about learning disabilities would star a talking blue fish?

Rated: 3.5/4

Much like its titular character, it keeps swimming, and in doing so teaches all of us life lessons that we likely already knew yet still could use to revisit all the same.

Rated: 3.5/4

Maybe not one of Pixar’s best movies, but one of their most valuable ones.

With Finding Dory, at least that glass stays mostly full of heart and humor, and that's enough to just keep swimming...

Rated: B+

Finding Dory does feel like a small step down from the studio, but only because they set the standard so high.

This Movie Is Worse Than I Remember Veary Boring And Flat The Characters Were So So But the character I Did not like was Hank Hank Cares for Nothing But taking Dorys Tag And Being Alone I know that something really bad happens to him But there’s Preatty much Nothing else About Him Nothing.

Decent sequel to an animated masterpiece. Finding Dory isn't bad, buy it pales in comparison to the original and to a lot of the other Pixar films. Mediocre.
