The Reef Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Short Attention Span Summary (SASS)
1.Boy fish meets girl fish
2.Bigger boy fish has his lateral eyes on the same girl fish
3.Boy fishes compete to win girl fish's fin in marriage
4.You already know how this is going to endYou'll get a strong feeling of déjà vu when watching this movie. Not only are the underwater locations familiar, especially the reef, the ocean current and the shipwreck, but the characters also, like the shark, the turtle, the jellyfish, the shrimp, the pelican, the starfish and the "henchmen". There's even a bit of "The Karate Kid" in there when a wise old ninja turtle helps out the underdogfish.
You'll also find that the majority of the scenes have been done before in other movies, and better. Taken on its own it's an average kids' movie, but the "borrowing" is so blatant that it's impossible to classify it as an original movie.
You've seen most of this before in Finding Nemo, The Little Mermaid and Shark Tale, so no need to waste money on this one. Let the kids catch it on cable if they want to.Amanda Richards, March 22, 2008
