Finding Dory — Excellent funny adventure that punctures our credulity — 8*/10

  • Overall: Very entertaining, beautiful and well-made. Not as good as the first one with a lot of gimmicks to make the scenario work.
  • Setting: Lots of details. Colorful.
  • Style: Comical adventure with a strong sentimental undertone.
  • Pacing: Rather quick, but not overly so.
  • Intro: Very interesting and touching. It's nice to get a good background story.
  • Story: Full of life and wild escapades. However, it's not as good as the first one (read my review here). Not because it's more of the same since it did innovate somewhat, but rather because the most actions were stretching our credulity. While you could believe in the original that what's happening might be possible, it's not true anymore. That breaks the mold.
  • Ending: A bit over the top.
  • Epilogue: Nice. Stay until the end of the credit for more.
  • Dialogs: Snappy and funny.
  • Characters: Excellent choices. Nicely evolved, well developed and with a few crazy new ones. However, Marlin's persona is a bit weaker in this chapter.
  • Acting: Solid.
  • Known actors: Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Diane Keaton and Eugene Levy.
  • Cameos: Sigourney Weaver and Bill Hader.
  • Visuals: Beautiful.

  • Who is it for? Anyone, kids and adults. As an adult, better if you've seen the first one.
