Andrew Stanton, who helped write Toy Story and Monsters, Inc., co-wrote and directed this computer-animated comedy-adventure about finding a very small fish in a very large ocean. Marlin (voice of Albert Brooks) is a more-than-slightly paranoid Clown Fish who is extremely devoted to his young son, Nemo (voice of Alexander Gould), the only survivor after an undersea predator swallowed up Nemo's mother and her other offspring. It's not Marlin's nature to explore unfamiliar waters, but when he and

In this seamless blending of technical brilliance and storytelling verve, the Pixar team has made something as marvelously soulful and innately, fluidly American as jazz.
Nemo, with its ravishing underwater fantasia, manages to trump the design glamour of earlier Pixar films.
Very clever and imaginative indeed.
[An] aquatic joyride.
A visual marvel, every frame packed to the gills with clever details, Finding Nemo is the best big-studio release so far this year.
An enchanting animated feature.
Sweet father-son tale with some very scary moments.
Tremendously well-made, marshaling the techniques of live-action filmmaking better than any CGI feature up to that point ever had.
The kids will appreciate the vivid characters and brilliant animation, and you'll surely appreciate the witty adult humor and human themes...
Wonderful writing generates several layers of humour -- from the innocent joys of childish fun to more complex comedy, but never at anyone's (or any fish's) cruel expense -- as well as an engaging dramatic plot.
Terrific-looking and sweet, it's certainly up to the superior standard Pixar has set for prime family entertainment.
I was swept up in its dazzling stream of rainbow corals, amused by the stoner turtles going with the flow, sharks battling their own regressive instincts and DeGeneres' scatterbrained Dory.
After four Pixar features under their belts, it is painfully easy to see the clichés emerging.
Magical. God knows how they do it, but Pixar is easily the most consistent, most intelligent movie shop in Hollywood.
A joyous delight for audiences of all ages.
Enthralling, and gorgeous, from start to finish.
Wildly funny with a marvelous array of characters, inventively designed with photo-realistic artistry, and rich in filial sentiment, the movie attracted every age group.
Brilliantly conceived Pixar movie is loaded with family values, albeit the salt water variety.
Humor, not music, drives the film, and Disney swims off into new territory with poke-fun-at-the-process extras.
Lets be honest, who could hate Finding Nemo? It's quite simply an instant classic. There is no reason why people could hate the stunnig visuals and the well written screenplay.
