Editorial Review:
When a shark accidentally clobbers himself, a small fish named Oscar (voiced by Will Smith, I, Robot) just happens to be around, prompting everyone to believe that he killed the shark himself. This lie soon makes Oscar a celebrity, worshipped by the general mass of fish, wooed by a glittering golddigger (Angelina Jolie, Girl, Interrupted), missed by his best friend (Renee Zellweger, Cold Mountain)--and hunted by the godfather of great whites (Robert De Niro, Goodfellas). Can a vegetarian shark named Lenny (Jack Black, School of Rock) get Oscar out of this mess? The formulaic story of Shark Tale never reaches the giddy heights of Pixar's output (Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc., Toy Story) or the freewheeling comedy of Shrek, but it's capably told and impeccably animated--the sheer technical skill is stunning. Kids won't get the mobster jokes or the other pop-culture references, but they'll enjoy it nonetheless. --Bret Fetzer
Shark Tale Reviews:
Great Animated Movie 
2009-11-11 - This is an awesome movie kids and adults will love this film. it's Awesome. I Recommend it for everyone
WHA???!!! 
2009-10-10 - Well, Shark Tale isn't as horrible as Barnyard, but it's still REALLY bad. The jokes never succeeded in making me laugh, the celebrity voices were distracting and very unnecessary, and the movie itself is tedious. And I mean TEDIOUS! I almost couldn't take it anymore. A Troll in Central Park had something more interesting than this, and that's really saying something. And oh boy, you'll be begging for all these characters to go away. They're as annoying and uninteresting as the ones you find in the ever-dreadful Disney Channel. I give credit for the film's decent 3D animation, though; that was the one that avoided me from completely hating this movie. But yeah, I'm sure the kids will love this. But when it comes to teenagers and adults, this will be a devastating disappointment. Just rent it if you're in the mood for some good 3D animation.
RIGHT ON SPOT! 
2009-10-02 - In case you haven't heard, this movie has everything needed for a hit movie. Good storyline, nice animation and some good voice-acting there isn't enough I can say aboutn this movie, just that it is on par with some other great animated films like madagasgar, shrek and ice age. if you know what's good for you BUY THIS DVD!! I rarley watch movies more than once, needless to say; I have watched this movie several times and enjoyed it each time.
Cute Movie for the kids!! 
2009-09-12 - Recieved movie in good condition from the seller. The movie itself was cute, not as cute as a disney princess movie but was great for the kids.My girls (three 3 yr olds)liked it and watch it over and over.
Junk.... 
2009-07-27 - Just an all around bad film that I really don't feel is appropriate for kids. As others have noted, the racial stereotypes are about as bad as you can get, the kids in the film get praised for their grafiti, there is a lot of 'product placement', and finally the story isn't worth talking about.
