Starring: Ellen
DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Ed O'Neill
Director: Andrew
Stanton, Angus MacLane
THE GOOD
It’s a Pixar movie so of course this movie looks fantastic.
More impressive was the short animation they played before the movie. Believe
it or not my favorite character out of this movie wasn’t Dori and it wasn’t
Nemo it was an octopus named Hank voiced by Ed O’Neill. Although there were
some seals that were pretty funny as well. Now as you may tell by this not a
lot of substance when it comes to the good. It looks a little thin and
superficial and that leads me to…
THE BAD
Unfortunately I’m going to have more bad to say about this
movie then good. The first like 10 minutes of this movie had me worried. It
mirrored the first one to the point I was thinking to myself he we go again.
Luckily the movie didn’t continue down that course. It felt like a pretty
generic movie there wasn’t a big twist. In typical Pixar style there was the
emotional turn in the middle of the movie with everything working out in the
end. The story wasn’t anything to right home about. Pretty positive I could tell you the entire
story/plot in about 2 to 3 sentences or you could just watch the trailers.
Although it’s what I expected the movie to be so I’m not sure whether I can
truly complain about the story when I still went to the theaters knowing that.
Now I went out and saw this movie on the Friday it came out it’s now Tuesday
following that so it’s been some time. I was asked about what my favorite part
was and I struggled to come up with a part. There were maybe one or two scenes
that stood out but that were it. The movie wasn’t all that remember able. There
certain scenes to this day that I remember out of other Pixar movies and for me
this one didn’t have those scenes that I’m going to remember long after this
movies been out a while. Also you could take Nemo and his dad out of this movie
and the scenes they had and I still feel like you would of gotten the same
movie except for like one scene in the end that you could of switched easily.
So there presents in the movie didn’t really change much or add much.
THE CONCLUSION
So where am I at with this movie. Let’s remember that this
is a Pixar movie so even a mediocre Pixar movie is a lot better then most
movies. It was very well done and the animation was awesome. It just fell flat
for me everywhere else. The thing with Pixar is.. it’s Pixar I expect more from
them then what I got this time. They screwed themselves by setting the bar as
high as they have. So is this a run out, have to see it in the theater movie? No
not really. Is it a watch it when it comes out have a movie night kind of movie?
Yes.
