The one standout has to be Hank the octopus voiced by Ed O'Neill. 'Hi I'm Dory, have you seen my parents?', oh my God shut the hell up!!Īll the other characters are your basic predictable types that we've seen a million times over in so many animated movies.
Yes the character of Dory is not funny, there I said it. Here she's the main character and you just can't escape her dimwitted, unfunny memory based slapstick shtick.

In the first movie its kinda acceptable because she wasn't the main character, she was the (apparent) comic relief. Ellen DeGeneres does a fine job with Dory's voice, I'm not really having a go at her, but the entire character is just God damn annoying. The first issue for me with this movie is the main character of Dory, she's hella annoying. So yes in short its literally the same thing all over again.
As you can imagine the trio meet up with numerous other fishy friends and others not so fishy whilst at the same time there is plenty of danger and more fish abducting by humans. Nemo and his dad Marlin agree to help Dory on her quest and set out towards their destination of California (where Dory's last flashback indicated her parents might be). Naturally this proves challenging for Dory with her memory problem. As an adult fish Dory keeps having these flashbacks about her parents so she decides to try and find them. We also see how Dory gets involved with the original movies hunt for Nemo. Firstly we get a flashback to show us Dory's young fish life with her parents before she finds herself getting lost (seems to happen a lot to these fish). This time around the story is just as simple and frankly just as unoriginal. So naturally there was going to be sequel, it was inevitable. But with glossy eye-popping visuals and great characters it struck a cord with families. The heartwarming tale of clownfish in search of his young son (also a clownfish) who has been captured by divers, was admittedly a simple and not particularly original one. So back in 2003 Pixar released the movie 'Finding Nemo' and it was a critical hit.
