Finding Nemo

This is a cute movie with very nice fluid computer animation, though I still have a problem with fish that have eyelids (a minor nitpick). The story is more than adequate to keep the kids engrossed in it, but I don't think it's as engrossing as it could have been. There are scary spots in the film, but nothing super traumatic for young children.

I was pleasantly surprised that the director, Andrew Stanton, does the voice for Crush, the sea turtle.

The kids will have a nice time, and will laugh where they should. Adults will more than likely marvel at the animation.

I give it 3 stars, or a grade of B.

P.S. Before the film, there is an animated short "Nome Sweet Nome" which was done in 1989 by the folks at Pixar. But there are no outtakes doing the end credits (but there are some fishes that swim around as the credits roll).
