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.

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.

4/4

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

Finding Nemo teaches the classic Pixar/Disney lessons about the importance of family, acceptance, kindness, and love, but it also an exciting tale of adventure, overcoming adversity, and teamwork.

Finding Nemo is one of Pixar’s most enduring classics and a film I genuinely love from start to finish. It blends stunning animation with a heartfelt story, unforgettable characters, and just the right balance of humor and emotion. The underwater world is beautifully realized, full of color and detail that still holds up incredibly well today. What makes this movie stand out is how naturally it mixes adventure with emotional depth, creating a story that feels meaningful without ever becoming heavy-handed. The characters are memorable, each bringing something unique and entertaining to the journey, and the voice acting is excellent across the board. It’s the kind of film that works for all ages, offering laughs for kids and emotional resonance for adults. Rewatching it never gets old, and it always leaves you with a warm, satisfied feeling. Overall, it’s a timeless adventure and easily a 10/10 classic.

I don’t think finding Nemo was amazing like Toy Story 2 and monsters inc but it’s still a great movie the animation and the water animation look really good this movie was honestly fun the Nemo faking death felt a little bit weird to me but besides from that we have a great movie 4/5
