Movie Reviews of Shark Tale (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: A Tall Tale
Summary: 4 Stars
Shark Tale is one hour and thirty minutes long and was released on October 1, 2004. Shark Tale tells the story of Oscar (voice by Will Smith) who dreams of being somebody, but in real life is nothing than a loser, dreamer of get rich schemes, and tongue scrubber at the Whale Wash. One day Oscar is called into the office Sykes (his boss) and Sykes wants the 5,000 clams he owes him so Sykes can pay protection money to Don Lino (a great white shark). Angie (voiced by Renee Zellweger) gives Oscar a pink pearl so he can sell it and repay Sykes. Oscar uses the money to bet on a sea horse and when the sea horse loses, Sykes orders Bernie and Ernie (a couple of jellyfishes) to take Oscar to the Wasteland and dispose of him. Bernie and Ernie are soon frightened away by a pair of sharks. Frankie is trying to turn Lenny into a mean killer shark. They spot Oscar tied up and Frankie orders Lenny to eat Oscar. Lenny swims over there and frees Oscar and when Frankie finds out, he swims over there to do it himself. While swimming over there an anchor lands on Frankie and kills him. Lenny swims away in grief and when Bernie and Ernie return, Oscar tells them a lie that he killed the shark. Oscar soon become a local hero and becomes somebody. He finds out that it is not really the life he dream about and wises up to tell Angie that he loves her. Angie is kidnapped by the shark mob and Oscar, Lenny, and Sykes must rescue her. In the end he tells the truth that he is not a shark killer and tells Angie that he loves her. The computer animation in Shark Tale is great. Included below are list of features that comes with this DVD. I am giving Shark Tale a B+.

Summary of Shark Tale (Widescreen Edition)
A comic catch from the studio that brought you Shrek, Shark Tale is a hilarious hit and "a wonderful under-the-sea adventure for movie lovers of all ages!" (Clay Smith, Access Hollywood)Oscar (Will Smith), a lowly tongue-scrubber at the local Whale Wash, becomes an improbable hero when he tells a great white lie. To keep his secret, Oscar teams up with an outcast vegetarian shark, Lenny (Jack Black), and the two become the most unlikely of friends. When his lie begins to unravel, it's up to Oscar's loyal friend Angie (Ren?e Zellweger) and Lenny to help him stand up to the most feared shark in the water (Robert De Niro) and find his true place in the reef.
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
