Posted - Oct 16 2004 : 08:48:25 Sorry I forgot, here is my review of a Sharks Tale;
Entertaining, the kids will love it, and all in all worth the dollars. However, considering its an undersea tale it must enevitably be help up against Finding Nemo, and it comes up short under that comparsion.
To boot, early on they try to make a joke of the death of a character and IMHO it coms up a bit flat.
The big thing in these animated features these days seem to be to have as many Hollywood "Brand" names as possible, and this one sure does. Its just that I don't think its as necessary as they do.
Will Smith plays the main character and thats fine, except that its typical Will Smith Stchick, and its wearing a bit thin.
I would have expected more from Jack Black too, but his character is a bit of a milquetoast.
Now its a cartoon, so maybe I'm being too harsh, but this is the first one I have seen that seems to lack something. Maybe its that they are getting too familiar?
Still, go see it, and as I said the kids will enjoy it, but It just didn't quite hit the mark.
