Mom's
view: I am a girl of the seventies and
eighties so I had to go see this movie.
The special effects were great. I
would give this movie a C. It wasn't
a waste of my money. It isn't a movie I am
dying to go out and buy either.
Dad's
view:
being from the 80's I really did grow up as a
Hulk fan. I was really looking forward to this
movie coming out, and it didn't let me down. I
loved the special effects, and the Hulk was 10
times better. I loved sharing the experience
of sharing it with my kids. They got a little
insight on what I grew up watching. I would
love to go see it again, and I can't wait till
it comes out on DVD! I will defiantly go out
and buy this one. I would rate this movie a
B.
Sawyers
View: I didn't think it was that good but it had some parts
I liked. I don't want to buy it.

Mom's
view:
I don’t watch cartoons… can’t stand
them. BUT… I got dragged along to this movie
by my family. What a sacrifice. I am so glad
they had to force me into this one. It was the
best cartoon I have seen in a long time. I
will go buy this one the day it comes out and
watch it over and over. Lots of great color,
tons of humor and real life feelings makes
this a top rate movie. I give this movie an A+.
I can’t imagine anyone not enjoying this
movie.
Dad's
view: Finding
Nemo was one of Disney’s FINEST yet. The
animation was awesome….the storyline kept
you interested….and you couldn’t help but
fall in love with the characters. I will go
out and buy this one. I know that it will get
watched over and over again. I have to rate
this movie an A.
If you haven’t seen it yet, no matter what
the age, you need to. You will be in for a
treat.
Sawyers
View: I liked this movie allot. I liked the sea turtles and the sharks. My favorite was Dori, she had a bad memory and she was funny.
