When Nemo, a young clownfish, is unexpectedly carried far from home, his overprotective father, Marlin (Albert Brooks), and Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a friendly but forgetful regal blue tang fish, embark on an epic journey that leads to encounters with vegetarian sharks, surfer dude turtles, hypnotic jellyfish and hungry seagulls!

My Thoughts:

I remembered really, really enjoying this a few years ago, and as I didn't enjoy it as much as I remembered, it was pretty good. Some particularly funny parts were Dory trying to speak whale (Who I didn't notice until now that she was voiced by Ellen DeGeneres. I'm terrible at celebrity sitings!!! ) and the end bit where the tank full of fish made it to the ocean only to realize they were still in bags!!

It had some funny moments, some serious parts like every movie, but some bits were just plain annoying! Like the stereotypical surfer-dude voice on all the sea turtles. (Reminds me of playing MUA2, Deadpool sounded the same!!)
Idk, something about it just irks me. Still, it was a really fun movie and I'm sorry I don't watch it more often!

Plot:Bizarre is sure a word to describe this canadian rarity... BTW this is awesome that like every other canadians films of that era this was finance trough the tax shelter program and it was archived at the Canadian National Archives (wich is the canadian version of the american Library of Congress, I bet there aren't any adult movies there ). So even if it was believed to be lost it never was and was well preserved at the Archives.

Is it scary? Of course not, there are better horror film than this one. But you got a Frankenstein-like doctor, a man in a gorilla suit, manbot with an impotence problem, a vampire who isn't really one, an ugly Igor-like lab assistant or something like that (who contrary to the manbot can get it up), a credible laboratory set (when we can see since the film is kind of dark), obvious stunt performers (common not everyone can perform in front of a camera and a large crew), a story who doesn't make sense most of the time, some of the worst acting ever seen, some WTF moment (the wedding ceremony sure win the WTH Cup) and a complete breaking of the fourth wall at the end.

So was it good? You bet it was. I've seen much better adult films, but it was quite funny so for me this is perfectly fine. By the way the director will work in Holywood a long time after that on films like First Blood, Scary Movie and many TV shows.

An okay episode with some funny moments.

Notable music:
"Imagine" sung by the deaf choir together with the Glee kids is a very nice moment.


I also enjoyed the last song in this episode: "True Colors". And Tina gets to sing it. A rare occation.
