Ah, those geniuses at Pixar have done it again. This film is raking in the dough.
Its not as good as Toy Story, but it sure is good!
The five minute film at the start with the snowdome is worth going for.

Probably, since Matrix was rated R and Nemo was at most a PG.

Geez, a little late, Popcorn Pictures, but I gotta agree. Finding Nemo totally wipes the floor with Matrix Reloaded, is one of Pixar's best, and is one of the best films of the year, along with X2, Freaky Friday, and Matchstick Men, through my eyes. The two times I saw this movie in theaters, both audiences applauded at the end, and when I left the first time, I had a dazzling smile on my face and a heavy heart. If I wasn't so damn mature, I would have been weeping at the end, but rest assured I was choked up good. While the ending was a little less satisfying than Toy Story 2's (emphasis on LITTLE), this was still a fabulous movie. I admire Pixar's guts for trying brand new things in this movie. For not recruiting more celebrities in this movie than in an awards show. For not sticking with comedy (which they've fully mastered, by the way) and focusing on real, true drama a lot more. For making their most realistic characters yet. For hiring someone as unlikely as Thomas Newman to compose for an animated film. And, most of all, for not including idiotic outtakes that have gotten so freakin' old it's not even funny. And for all this, Pixar deserves the huge amount of praise and box office gross (335 million, baby) it gets for this movie, and all their movies. Yessir, Pixar is, has been, and will likely always be a real force to be reckoned with not just in the animation industry, but in the FILM industry as well. I'd rate Pixar's films, from best to worst, like this:

1. Toy Story 2
2. Finding Nemo
3. Toy Story
4. A Bug's Life
5. Monsters, Inc.

And keep in mind, all these films are at the very least, GOOD. None of them are bad by any means.

Keep up the excellent work, Pixar!

Yeah, that's Australia for you. Its a new release down here.

As for the outtakes at the end, I was waiting for them. But that scene at the end where all the fish from the dentist escape was a great way to end it.
"...Now what?" Absolutely hilarious.

FINDING NEMO is currently the 8th highest grossing film of ALL TIME! Behind such films as Titanic, ET, Jurassic Park, Lord of the Rings, Forrest Gump and Star Wars. That's a prett ygood list to be on.

I'd rate Pixars film like this

1) Toy Story
2) Toy Story 2
3) Finding Nemo
4)Monsters Inc
5) Bugs Life

But as you said, they are all very good films. Soon we wont need actors at all.

That is insane. He rocks.
