Gang de requins

Shark Tale is one of those animated movies that doesn’t dazzle, but still serves its purpose and entertains. But still, when you compare it with Nemo (in view of the circumstances, that is probably the best movie for comparison), it just isn’t quite as good. Although there are some bits that work really well (the Godfather and the shark mafia thing is really good) but voices of the famous and the catchphrase “from the creators of Shrek" simply isn’t enough to produce a quality movie. The animation itself is pretty poor when compared with the competition and although this weird fish world has something to it, it can never match the atmosphere of Nemo. DreamWorks should rethink their approach and try to implant their soul into the story, like they do at Pixar. Until they learn to do that, they will never be more than just “the other lot".

The cartoon itself is pretty standard; it has a clearly defined story, but the jokes are just fantastic and entertaining. In English, the film is excellently dubbed, even though it's spoken in English by some really big names. There's plenty of fun for adults here too because some jokes just go over a kid's head. You can watch this even when you're in a bad mood. (16/03/2015)

This is one of the many cartoons that I can watch more than once. It's sometimes quite funny thanks to the lines of the main character Oscar, and the plot is more than decent. It definitely can't be compared to Finding Nemo, but for me, it's probably the second best cartoon with an underwater theme. (18/08/2013)

Very enjoyable entertainment with truly stellar voice actors, Zimmer's music and a beautifully rendered underwater world. The lawless con-artist Oscar has wit and panache, shy Lenny is cute and likeable, and De Niro's Don Lino is a proper mobster, though unfortunately he contributes to the story with no emotion, no surprises, and no significant moral overtones. The ingredients work and the film flows, but as a whole it gets lost in the crowded competition and has nothing to say... (30/08/2012)

Shark Tale has one problem: it wasn’t released before Finding Nemo, and many people will say that it is some kind of imitation. But it’s not. The gangsters in particular are brilliant. (31/12/2009)
