It's a pretty extreme way to set up the film, but it gives viewers a wonderful set up to a fairly simple story. Marlin names the last egg Nemo (Alexander Gould), Coral's last wish before her death, and vows to protect him no matter what.

An incredible amount of heart and humor went into this and not one frame is wasted, the creators hit the ground running with this one and never stop until the fulfilling finish line.īesides “Up”, “Finding Nemo” has the saddest intro to a Pixar movie, with father clown fish Marlin (Albert Brooks, “ Drive”) and mother clown fish Coral (Elizabeth Perkins) gazing at their 400 plus allotment of fish babies almost ready to hatch, reminiscing on how they met but only to be encountered with destruction from an ocean predator who kills everything except one egg and Marlin. This is quintessential Pixar viewing and I've seen it countless times, and I plan to watch it countless more after this review.

The fish are horrified when they learn that Nemo, whom they have dubbed "Sharkbait," is to be a gift for the dentist's niece, Darla. In the tank, Nemo meets the Tank Gang, and their leader, Gill. Marlin, who is watching, argues with Nemo, but Nemo is suddenly taken by a diver to a fish tank in a dentist's office in Sydney, Australia. At one point, he boldly leaves the reef to touch a boat on the open ocean.

One day, Nemo heads off to his first day of school. As a result of the crack, one of Nemo's fins is smaller than the others, thus Marlin worries about him. Only Nemo's egg survived, albeit slightly cracked. Before he hatched from his egg, Nemo's mother, Coral, and the other eggs were killed in an attack by a barracuda. Nemo is a young clownfish who lives with his father, Marlin in a sea anemone. Nemo is the title character and the tritagonist of the Disney/Pixar 2003 hit film Finding Nemo.
