Editorial Review:
Description: 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 (Renée 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.
Amazon.com: 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 was an animated feature from Dreamworks, the company that brought you Shrek, but for all the talent involved in Shark Tale, there were mixed results. I think that it was a cute idea, mixing the gangster 'goodfellas' genre with hip hop and black culture--think ... Read More
Rating: - Shark Tale
Ordered a used copy, so was quite inexpensive, arrived a day earlier. DVD was in great condition. Great value for money. Very satisfied!
Rating: - 2.5 stars out of 4
The Bottom Line:
Shark Tale is mediocre animated fare: it doesn't try to be anything more than a colorful kids' film with a few laughs for grownups thrown in, and in this regard it succeeds.
Rating: - Great video
I am very pleased w/ the product & the time frame in which it arrived.
Rating: - A Nutshell Review: Shark Tale
After watching this movie, you'll know why Dreamworks Animation's IPO is worth billions. Going by their success of the Shrek Movies, and now Shark Tale, they'll be the studio that will give Pixar a run for their money. The premise for this animated film is similar to Shrek's, adapting modern day icons to suit the mis-en-scene, thus providing tongue-in-cheek references as well as opportunities for a gag or two. We follow the exploits of Oscar (Will Smith), who lives in a fish colony modeled after ... Read More
