Must-watch. Review on Finding Nemo

There are times when you want just pure entertainment. When you dont want to think or analyse (think Matrix-3), or chew your nails, but just lie back and enjoy. Finding Nemo is the movie for such moments.

This animation comedy tells about an overprotective Dad (everyone's a fish, and no one acts like one, so I am just going to ignore that detail for the most part), who loses his son to a fishing boat. This causes the homely dad to take up a journey into the unknown. In the process, he makes friends with another, more adventurous fish, who happens to suffer from short term amnesia!

Together, they take on the sea and its infinite dangers, and have many adventures. They evade jelly fish, fight sharks, travel with sea-turtles, and visit a whale's interior.

Meanwhile, the son is stuck in an aquarium in a dentist's, alongwith some others. They hatch plan after plan to get out, and have adventures in their own right.

The story is straight, the plot simple. The fun lies in the sea. The imagination is amazingly fresh. The way human feelings have been set in a totally different world is great. Similarly, how humor has been made available to the marine characters is praiseworthy.

And while the conceptualisation is good, the execution is better. The hues and the magnitude, the diversity and the detail, are breathtaking. And while you fall in love with the individual characters, you also fall in love with the whole sea.
