Good movie. I watched this when I was younger and was a bit scared going swimming in the lake for a while after that.

Pretty scary, full on blood scenes.
Simple story in reality, but a horror packed movie.

The movie is a classic with adult sequences. I remember my family walking out of this movie when I was a kid. Hey, who knew there was be naked women swimming in the lake? Some lucky zombies huh?

Finding Dory (2016)
Finding Dory (2016)
2016 | Animation
"Just keep swimming … just keep swimming …"

Set after Finding Nemo, this see's Ellen DeGeneres Blue Tang - the undisputed start (for me, at least, of that earlier movie) in her own headline movie, when - due to events - she suddenly remembers her family and sets off on a quest to reunite with the same.

As always with Pixar, impeccably animated with a strong message about the importance of family (even 'found' family), this - perhaps - suffers somewhat in comparison with Finding Nemo in that we've been there, done that.

That, and the fact that the Human world (seemingly, or at least, that's it how it felt to me!) plays a larger role than in the previous.

Gotta love Dory's friend Sigourney Weaver, though!

Awful!
All I can say is this just seemed like a rubbish remake of jaws! I found the whole film extremely boring.
As Jason Statham was in the film, i thought it may be quite good as i rate him as a good actor. I was thoroughly disappointed! All I saw was an over sized shark swimming in water and occasionally attacking.
Seriously, don't waste your time!
