The movie tells the story of Nemo, and baby clown fish, and his father, Marlin, a worry some father who over-protects and represses Nemo. When Nemo is kidnapped by a scuba diver, Marlin must come to his rescue. While on his journey he meets the hilarious and forgetful Dory, as well as some other interesting sea creatures including a sea turtle, a shark and a giant blue whale. While in captivity Nemo meets his fellow fish tank mates and develops a close bond.
While watching this movie, everyone in the audience is enthralled in a sweet tale that might just bring you to tears.
From the beginning of the movie, when the tragic death of Marlin's wife Coral occurs, the audience is thrown into the emotional peril of the life of a fish. One cannot help but fall in love with the sweet and sincere Nemo as he struggles to gain freedom from his loving, but overbearing father. Nemo easily makes friends with his fish tank room mates and learns about the importance of having someone who loves and cares about you. He also learns from an erratic and sensitive fish, Gil, the importance of working together and helping those who care about you. Nemo grows emotionally and learns of his real love for his father while trying to escape from the evil scuba diving dentist.
While on his journey to save Nemo, Marlin slowly learns to bond with Dory. While at first Marlin is irritated with Dory and her whimsical ways, Marlin understands the importance of having someone there for you to count on and comes to rely on Dory through and through.
The incredibly creative story line of this movie never falters and the audience is able to attach a personal relationship with each character being presented. The animation is also amazing because the look and feel of the underwater world created is a huge success.
Ellen Degeneres gives and absolutely stellar performance as Dory and is beautifully complimented by the equally good Albert Brooks as Marlin. Every actor in this film magically captured the spirit of the underwater creatures and really make this film come to life.
This story is not only a physical journey from one end of the ocean to another, but an emotional journey of a father and of a son.
