Aroview: Another giant splash from Pixar studios that, like TOY STORY and MONSTERS INC., is almost mandatory family viewing. This time ground-breaking and flawless in its rendering of an underwater universe, adults will be wowed with the artistry, while kids will of course have a whale of a time.
After Nemo, the little clown fish, gets separated from his father, the film follows the dual journeys of the lost and search parties, who each encounter schools of lively characters, sourced and varied from the bountiful deep. Highlight for us was Bruce the Ocker shark (voiced by Barry Humphries) and his goons, who compliment a largely Antipodean setting (the Great Barrier Reef and Sydney to be exact) that is both refreshing and inspired.
Features the voice work of Albert Brooks, Ellen DeGeneres, Alexander Gould and Willem Dafoe.

5 stars (Exceptional) Every character is absurd in some manner, and the film is extremely enjoyable because of it. ~dr.strangelove
3 stars (Good Enough) An underwater sea quest of a father searching for his inquisitive Nemo, on the way he meets a number of new friends who assist him on his mission. A lovely tale of never giving up and determination. ~GenXGirl
4 stars (Very Good) Sweet animated tale of family and friendship, this has plenty to laugh and be happy about. ~Tom H
