Finding Nemo Review Summary

Discover the kid in you all over again watching Finding Nemo. Reviewers love the Disney/Pixar story of a father clownfish that loses his son and sets out to find him. Some parents saw an important message in this for kids, that they should always listen to their parents. Not that Finding Nemo is only for family viewing, though, as everyone seems to agree its great for all ages. Albert Brooks is great voicing the character of the father, but the star of the show seems to be Ellen DeGeneres, unforgettable as the voice of Dory. Many reviewers found the colorful animation of Finding Nemo exceptional. In fact many found it to be even better than Toy Story, another Disney/Pixar film with rave reviews. While the plot could scare some children, Finding Nemo is sure to be a classic for years to come.

Nembo (as my son calls him) is a huge hit with little ones and parents alike. I think this is a must have in any kids collection. — The story is about the complex relationship between a father and son clown fish. Marlin, the Dad, is having a hard time letting Nemo grow up.… read full review »

I enjoyed this movie, it would not be one of my all-time favorites though. — The animation was great and the characters almost came to life for me.  Great colors and story line.  The fact that Nemo was separated from his dad and at the end was reunited, was wonderful.  It gives… read full review »

 The story goes that Pixar film animators wanted to challenge themselves to figure out a way to animate water in a new and spectacular way.   So  NEMO was born.   It's an incredibly inventive film with some dazzling colorful imagery.    They also came up with a very clever and funny screenplay.    NEMO has been caught and is on display in a dentist office.   How will his father get him back?   Why convince other fish to help him save his son.  HOW?  Ah... there in lies the movie.    … read full review »

Great storyline, easy for everyone to follow.  This is a movie that I can watch, over and over and it never gets old.  There is always so much going on in this movie upfront and in the background.  Great colorful animation.  The artists for this movie did a great job with the whole underwater experience.  It brought a new world to a lot of people.  I love the character development of Marlin, and of course Dory is really hilarious.  I keep finding myself singing "Just keep swimming."  There is not a single bad part in this movie.  A truly great… read full review »

Finding Nemo is a great movie by Pixar that kids and parents will enjoy watching over and over again.  I fell in love with Nemo before I was a parent, but I have to tell you that the story actually gained something after the birth of my first son.  I know it's corny, but you understand the father fish's point of view more.  Hey... my husband won't watch it anymore because it makes him cry... seriously. This is a great film to watch with your kids.  It's also a great film to have a discussion about.  There are so many different characters that are highly… read full review »

Finding Nemo is a wonderful story about parenting, overcoming fear and stigma and taking risks that you want to stand up for.  The characters are believable and realistic.  The over-protective father who lost everything but one "child".  The innocent child who has faith and trust in everything he has been taught, and the the kind friendships we can make along the way in life.  I was very moved and brought to tears of joy watching this cute little film.  I was also very impressed with the sheer will and strength one small child can have and how a small random act of… read full review »

I can watch this movie over and over again, and most recently I had the pleasure to watch this for the first time with my year and a half old niece. I have never seen her eyes so wide and she paid attention through the entire thing. The colors are amazing, and the story line is simple enough for a two year old to somewhat comprehend. I think it is a safe, fun, and adorable Disney movie...… read full review »

When this movie first came out I rented it for my little brother, he ended up wanting to watch it so many times we had to buy it! I love the fun characters and the important message to listen to your parents or bad things will happen, but also the fact that you can't always protect your children. This is one you'll want to buy for your babies, I really enjoyed it… read full review »

I bought this movie after the first time I saw it. — There are great lessons for kids in this movie, it's funny and will make you cry.  The story is great and the characters and colors are awe inspiring.  Some scenes are more adult-oriented, but it's still a great kids movie. I can't say enough great things about this movie.  If you haven't seen it, you are missing one of the greatest movies of all time. —… read full review »

 Few movies entertain me with more than one viewing.  Finding Nemo is one such movie.  I enjoy watching it over again and again as well as sharing it with my two year old nephew.  When we watch together he begins to express himself by reacting to the dialog and the emotional intensity of the characters.  I have also observed this helps him to develop his communication skills and decreases his "terrible twos" tantrums.  He is able to focus for extended periods of time but does not become "hypnotized" by the TV screen.  He will turn to me in parts of… read full review »

You can't go wrong with this favorite. What a gem!! Ellen puts the See in Seafood! This will soon be a Disney Classic. The whole animated movie is of course about finding Nemo and the adventures you will take.There is no short of breath on the billions of colors in the graphical ocean. This is a film to be seen by adults and kids of all ages. This film has some smart moments and some visuals that will make you laugh and wonder about the next time you go to a dentist office and see a fish tank .....it will make you wonder what they think!!! — As a Clown i think of films family can… read full review »

My three year old nephew loved the movie so much we saw "Nemo on Ice" for his birthday.  Now he asks if we can see every movie 'on ice'. —  This film has jokes in it for all ages and can be watched over and over, and if you have kids, you'll probably watch it many times.  It has a great message of overcoming adversity as well as accepting yourself as you are. —… read full review »

It is great for kids of all ages exceptal with the bright colors and computer animation.

First and foremost I have always been a fan of these types of annimated movies and I am into collecting all annimated DVD's from different types of music. I for one have to say that I loved this movie a lot. They always seem to have me coming back and just wanting more. I think this movie tells a great story that is easy to understand. —… read full review »
