Finding Nemo 3D

There are 3.7 trillion fish in the ocean... They're looking for one.

So, Finding Nemo came out in 2003, 9 whole years ago (MAN, do I feel old). It was just recently re-released in 3D, hence the review.

Most of you out there should know the general storyline of the movie. The title character Nemo, gets captured by some divers and his father travels across the ocean to find him. Add in some comedy relief in the form of a fish with a short-term memory problem and some surfer dude turtles, and you have the makings of a movie everyone can enjoy.


In fact, so many people enjoyed it that it has the honor of being the best selling DVD of all time, a position that it has held since 2005. Not only is it at the top of the list, but it has beaten out such contenders as the Lord of the Rings trilogy (individually anyway), The Dark Knight, and the Pirates of the Caribbean series (individually). I have a feeling that the addition of the 3D variant of the film will push DVD sales even higher (once it gets re-released to DVD/BluRay), which is probably why Disney/Pixar is re-releasing some of their most popular movies in 3d.


Chances are, you have seen the movie, so I am not going to go into much more detail about the story than I already have. However, I will tell you what I thought of the 3D adaptation. In all honesty, for most of the film, you couldn't even tell that it was in 3D. There were a few spots that it really worked well, but overall, it wasn't that great. Because this is a movie that was adapted for 3D, you really shouldn't expect too much anyway though.



Finding Nemo 3D gets 8.5 stars

I decided that I would give this movie 8 ½ stars. Without the 3D, the movie would have gotten a perfect score, but this review is about the 3D version of it, so that is a moot point. Regardless, it is still one of those movies that I would recommend you go see. Even if you don't want to see it in, or don't like 3D movies, most theaters will probably have a 2D version available as well, just remember that there will most likely be small children where ever you do go see it. And if you don't want to see it in the theater, I am sure they will be releasing it on DVD/BluRay sometime in the near future.
