Marlin, a clown fish with no aptitude for telling jokes, is an overprotective dad living at the Great Barrier Reef with his rambunctious son Nemo. When Nemo is snatched by a specimen-collecting scuba diver, Marlin must go on a quest to rescue his offspring. The anxious Marlin, voiced by comic Albert Brooks, is so desperate that he seeks help from Dory, a giddy fish suffering from short-term memory loss. Dory is more hindrance than help, but she's also a panic, with droll Ellen DeGeneres providing her voice. As they track Nemo, Marlin and Dory encounter a trio of unconventional sharks, a giant colony of jellyfish, a tribe of hang-loose sea turtles and more. Meanwhile, Nemo is trying to get home on his own. It's not the gleeful jive of Pixar's previous film "Monsters, Inc.," yet "Finding Nemo" is bright family entertainment and, in its watery beauty, it's a technical marvel. Featuring the vocal talents of Willem Dafoe, Geoffrey Rush and Allison Janney.
