Marlin (Albert Brooks), a clown fish, is overly cautious with his son, Nemo (Alexander Gould), who has a foreshortened fin. When Nemo swims too close to the surface to prove himself, he is caught by a diver, and horrified Marlin must set out to find him. A blue reef fish named Dory (Ellen DeGeneres) -- who has a really short memory -- joins Marlin and complicates the encounters with sharks, jellyfish, and a host of ocean dangers. Meanwhile, Nemo plots his escape from a dentist's fish tank.

It's honestly just simple. It was just something about this movie, that made it so good to watch as a child. Whether it was the colors, or the graphics!

Most of all, Finding Nemo is a touching tale which reassures you that even though things may look bleak, it will all turn out well in the end.

Rated: 3/4

Neil Norman

London Evening Standard

Finding Nemo offers as much in terms of thrills, frights, humour and psychological insight as it does in pure technical skill, proving that a movie can be art without being an "art" movie.

A splendid eco-friendly comedy set in the Great Barrier Reef.

For the Win (USA Today)

Outside of being one of the greatest animated films of its generation, it’s got a delightful sense of humor.

Deep Focus Review

Pixar's Finding Nemo elevated their already visionary and pioneering output to the thematic level of Hayao Miyazaki.
