I own this movie on DVD.

Am I the only one who likes this movie? I swear sometimes it feels that way. As this movie gets dunked on a lot online and by reviewers. I really like it though.
This was made back when Dreamworks was trying to go head to head with Disney and put out similar movies at the same time or close to the same time, with this being their answer to Disney's Finding Nemo. Cause under water animated fish movie. However the plots could not be more different at all.
While Finding Nemo is a heart warming story about a dad fish traveling the oceans to find his missing son, Shark Tale is about a low life fish thug swindler trying to con the rest of the ocean into thinking he's this big shark slayer hero. With Will Smith as a fish. Of all people. And Jack Black as a shark.
It's hilarious, well acted and the source of a lot of memes.
I enjoyed it a lot as a kid and still do. And now I kinda want to watch it again.
Hot take... while I'll agree that Finding Nemo is a far better movie, I think I like Shark Tale more on a personal level and would usually rather watch this one.

I kinda wonder what a sequel would be like or if that would ever be in the cards. Interesting thought. Though considering the drama around Will Smith in recent years. Not sure that'd be possible.

Mistake Status: I do plan to do this one for mistakes. Not sure when though.
