Review of Finding Dory (2016) by Ryan_Parkinson — 17 Jun 2016

This film is going to make a lot of nostalgic fans and new audiences very happy. It's animation and voicework is top shelf and its charm is undeniable, but it's story feels poorly paced and forced. The exposition is unbelievably dense; never has a Pixar film had so many characters spend so much time talking about what they're thinking or how they feel. Dory is tiresome whenever she's centre stage and the lack of adult wit makes it not feel to dissimilar to an Ice Age outing.

By all means see it and enjoy it, but this is far from Pixar at their best.
