Critic Reviews

  • Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

    It is not in the same level of Finding Nemo but I still think it is worth seeing.

  • Claudia Puig, USA Today

    Story is everything and Shark's is rather thin and soupy, despite the winning improvisational skills of stars Will Smith and Jack Black.

  • Peter Howell, Toronto Star

    An uneasy cross between rival studio Pixar's Finding Nemo and DreamWorks' own Shrek franchise.

  • Tom Keogh, Seattle Times

    Cluttered, claustrophobic and self-referential.

  • Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

    An entertaining 90 minutes.

  • Dead A


    This isn't that great sadly. I watched this only because of Will Smith. Not terrible though. Watchable.

  • Bethany M


    A classic! A must see!
