Review of The Snowman/Father Christmas (DVD)

Finding Nemo is a superb family film, guaranteed to entertain.

Advantages: Great for all ages
Disadvantages: could have included more soundtracks.

Finding Nemo is a fantastic film for all the family. The visual effects are super, the storyline is easy to follow without being the least bit boring and the characters are all unique and entertaining. The comedy is simple enough to get the kids laughing out loud but is also genuinely funny for the adult viewers. Dorey's lack of memory has the audience shouting out loud to remind her of things she has forgotten and Marlin's emotional journey of accepting ...

Advantages: Entertaining for Little one's
Disadvantages: THere is now a new version of the show on TV
