Finding Nemo

Just so we are clear, Ellen has always been awesome. She made a brave, bold move and it kinda tanked her career. I thought Ellen was done in Hollywood. Casting her in this movie was seen as a bit of a risky choice. NOBODY could have played Dori the way Ellen did. I'm 45. I think I was 21 or something when it came out. We would watch this movie all the time. Now I have a 4 year old son, and he had no idea about Finding Nemo. When we watched it, it was like magic. He laughed, he cried. He cheered and jumped up on the bed. And when it was over, he was ready to watch it again IMMEDIATELY. This movie is timeless.

BEST movie.

A classic for the kids.

Finding Nemo delivers a beautifully animated underwater journey that blends humor, emotion, and adventure. The story follows a timid clownfish named Marlin as he searches for his lost son, Nemo, encountering a variety of colorful sea creatures along the way. The voice acting is strong, with memorable performances that bring the characters to life. The film’s visuals are impressive, especially for its time, showcasing vibrant coral reefs and fluid animation. Themes of family, perseverance, and trust are woven throughout, making it suitable for both children and adults. While the pacing occasionally slows in the middle, the overall narrative remains engaging. A solid choice for family movie night, with enough charm and depth to appeal to a wide audience.

I have a healthy respect for Pixar. They've done four major films, every one of them was graphically stunning, yes.. but they also realized what makes a great movie isn't just the graphics - but a good STORY. Finding Nemo is probably my favorite of the four they've done. Not only is the story heart-warming and touching, but its also funny! The basic plot is that Marlin is an overprotective father who lost his wife and most of his children in a barracuda attack. His only surviving child is a little clownfish named Nemo, who happens to also have a bad fin. On the first day of school Nemo's class goes to the dropoff (where the reef stops and the ocean gets deep), where Nemo and his new friends see a boatand decide to have a competition to see who can swim closer. Marlin shows up, becomes overprotective and Nemo rebells. He gets caught by a diver and put in a fishtank. The remainder of the story is how scaredy cat (er, fish) Marlin goes on a fantastic journey to find his son. I saw some reviewers complaining that the story isn't realistic - but is it supposed to be? It's supposed to be entertaining and fun, which is it. The characters are all funny, likeably and interesting. Dory, who Marlin befriends on his journey, is hilarious throughout the whole movie ("Yes, I'm a natural blue!"). The graphics are amazing as well - Pixar keeps raising the bar with each movie they make. The bottom line is, this movie is visually stunning, the story is wonderful, the characters are great.. its one of the best movies of the year - no question in my mind! The DVD is also a great buy - it has tons of features including some behind the scenes stuff that is really interesting. I especially liked the special which basically went through the entire process of making the movie (albeit condensed - the movie took like 3 years to make!). Another especially neat feature was how they watched real fish and tried to make all the computerized fish as realistic as possible. It's a great buy - I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed!

Had watched this movie with our kids when they were younger, and wanted to see it again.

Finding Nemo is a good movie with super production and great Disney themes: family, paternal instincts, friendship, loyalty, and the parent-child conflict dynamic of protecting the child versus the ability to let go and let the progeny do things on his/her own. For those who don't know: Marlin and Coral are clownfish who produced a school's worth of eggs but Coral and all but one of the eggs are eaten by a barracuda in the first minutes of the film (scary for little ones). Nemo is the sole survivor and grows up with his overprotective dad Marlin. On his first day of educational school, Nemo is captured by a diver for his dental office's saltwater fish collection and Marlin overcomes his fears of open water to swim through the whole coast of Australia to find Nemo, aided by Dory the nutty blue tang who tracked the path of the dentist's boat. The movie is not as funny as most of the other Pixars, though it has its moments: the Fisheaters Anonymous meetings for sharks, some of Ellen DeGeneres' scene-stealers as Dory the forgetful blue tang, the goofy fish Nemo meets in the dentist's tank who provide color commentary for dental procedures. The movie is also more poignant than the other Pixars. And you're guaranteed never to look at fish in fishtanks the same way again. As a DVD, the extras are not very good. There are "deleted scenes" but they were deleted at the storyboarding stage of production, so they did not get the full Pixar compu-graphic workup and are instead crude drawings with proto-type voiceovers [Pixar does an initial voice-over of the script with in-house production crew members providing the voices, then brings in the high-priced talent like DeGeneres, Albert Brooks [Marlin], Geoffrey Rush, Willem Dafoe, etc.; sometimes Pixar folks' work remains in the movie such as Crush the surfer-dude turtle in this flik, and Heimlich the fat caterpillar from A Bug's Life]. There are also some educational bits that are interesting. But the character interviews with Dory, Marlin and Nemo are not particularly humorous or well-written, they just magnify the characters' more noted traits. Worst of all, there is NO BLOOPER SET -- the best feature of the other Pixar films (they're so popular that Monsters, Inc. had TWO Blooper sets). That is a true loss.

I cry every time

TRES BIEN

名作なので親子二代で気に入って、安心して何度も視聴出来る作品です🏝️

„Findet Nemo“ ist zweifellos einer der besten Animationsfilme aller Zeiten. Von Anfang bis Ende entführt er die Zuschauer auf eine magische Reise in die Tiefen des Ozeans, voller Abenteuer, Herz und Lachen. Die Charaktere sind liebevoll gestaltet und haben jeder auf seine eigene Kunst und Weise seinen ganz besonderen Charme. Marlin, der ängstliche Clownfisch, und Dory, die liebenswerte aber vergessliche Paletten-Doktorfisch, sind ein unschlagbares Duo, das die Herzen der Zuschauer im Sturm erobert. Die Animation ist atemberaubend. Jeder einzelne Meeresbewohner und jede Unterwasserlandschaft ist mit so viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet, dass man sich fühlt, als ob man selbst in den türkisblauen Gewässern schwimmen würde. Die Farben sind lebendig, die Animation flüssig und die Musik unterstreicht perfekt die Stimmung jeder Szene. „Findet Nemo“ ist jedoch nicht nur ein visuelles Meisterwerk, sondern auch eine Geschichte über Familie, Freundschaft und den Mut, über sich selbst hinauszuwachsen. Es ist ein Film, der Jung und Alt gleichermaßen begeistert und zum Nachdenken anregt. Insgesamt ist „Findet Nemo“ ein zeitloser Klassiker, der die Zuschauer in eine zauberhafte Welt entführt. Mit seiner mitreißenden Geschichte, den unvergesslichen Charakteren und der beeindruckenden Animation verdient dieser Film jeden einzelnen Stern in meiner Bewertung. Sehen Sie ihn sich unbedingt an – er wird Sie verzaubern!

Finding Nemo is the best animated film that I have seen to date! it is simply the best! If you've loved the Pixar titles then you will love this feature! No doubt about it! Finding Nemo tells the story of (Marlyn)Father and (Nemo)Son, Marlyn is overprotective of Nemo after what has happened to their family, but doesn't give Nemo the freedom that he wants, he defys his father after telling Nemo not to touch the bottom of a boat, when he does the adventure begins. Marlyn searches out to find Nemo and along the way has an adventure of a lifetime! This film is magnificant as the characters are uplifting, the way that some of the characters has been animated are amazing, and the voice actors adds emotion creating a unique character, when you watch this film you won't even realise that its animated because the story is just so good. This set includes the bonus disc that explains how its all done, when we watch an animated film we don't truely appreciate how much work has gone into it to make it like as if it was no effort, Pixar is to be praised with this animated title as this is one for all audiences! one definatly worth owning!! After watching it, I still can't get over the birds! "Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine" heh :D (you will understand when you watch it)

Produit en parfait été, envoi soigné, bon film. Ras.
