Product Description: OSCAR, 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, AND THE 2 BECOME THE MOST UNLIKELY OF FRIENDS. WHEN THE LIE BEGINS TO UNRAVEL ITS UP TO OSCAR'S FRIENDS TO HELP HIM.
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

My two shark loving boys LOVE this fun and entertaining dvd. It's a heartwarming story as well as an action packed adventure with all kinds of sharks and sea life. My husband and I enjoy the adult references too.
