Shark Tale Details

[Highly rated reviewer]

superb.........

this film is superb. Shark Tale has an all star cast which includes Angelina Jolie, Will Smith, Renee Zellweger, Martin Scorsese and Jack Black.

the film follows a lowly fish called Oscar who is played by will smith, with aspirations of being rich and famous. Oscar has a lousy job, which is cleaning the back of a Whale's tongue, deep down in the Sea at the Whale Wash.

On the other side of the reef, is the Great White shark family, headed by Robert De Niro's character, with Lenny played by Jack Black, who is his wayward son, who is trying to escape, from his family life.

Oscar desperately wants to be known by everyone, and his chance comes when he is left to be eaten by Sharks, after not paying up to the head of them called Don Lino (Robert DeNiro). Oscar is mistaken for slaying a Shark, who came to gobble him up, after Don Lino's odd vegetarian brother Lenny (Jack Black) fails to eat him.

When Oscar and Lenny's worlds intertwine, they find both a friendship and a way to solve their problems.

Oscar is showered with fame and fortune as the 'Shark Slayer,' but after a while his story starts to sound a bit fishy, now he must get out of hot water to stay at the top.

Renee Zellweger is the voice of the lonely friend of Oscar, who secretly holds a crush on him.

Martin Scorsese is the voice of Sykes, Don Lino's pet boy.

And Oscar's manager is voiced by Angelina Jolie, as Lola the cute at first girl, but mean inside fish.

Ziggy Marley (Bob Marley's son) voices Ernie and Bernie.

On the DVD bonus features, the 'Club Oscar' section features fish, sharks and hilarious little shrimp, dancing and raving.

well worth renting out.

Technically competent ? limited enjoyment

OK so it?s got some star talent appeal and the animation is pretty good. But the plot just fizzles out at the end and you don?t really feel drawn in to the story like you did in Finding Nemo or similar quality movies.

The kids enjoyed it but only watched it once ? nuff said.
