"The simple tale of a clown fish looking for his son in the immensity of the deep blue sea is a visual spectacle of gigantic performance. Pixar, having perfected its 3D animation style, shows off its stylistic grandeur in this tale with Hitchcockian twists and colourful characters which follow up on the long standing tradition of memorable Disney animation characters. With its breathtaking portrayal of the deep blue sea, Finding Nemo is hence more than just entertainment, but the work of a finalised evolution of a new style of animation feature film, in one of its most famed examples."
