Finding Nemo/Monsters, Inc. [DVD]

Description

Double bill of animated children's features. In 'Finding Nemo' (2003) motherless clownfish Nemo (voiced by Alexander Gould) is carried away from his home in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. His overprotective father, Marlin (Albert Brooks), and Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a friendly but forgetful regal blue tang fish, go to his rescue. The two embark on an adventure that leads to encounters with a range of colourful characters including Bruce the Great White Shark (Barry Humphries), a sea tortoise called Crush (Andrew Stanton) and a pelican called Nigel (Geoffrey Rush). In ' Monsters, Inc.' (2001), Sulley (voiced by John Goodman) and sidekick Mike (Billy Crystal) are the top scaring team on the job. Their task is to keep Monstropolis ticking over, running it on the power generated by children screaming - a production line of assorted terrifying monsters are sent to appear in front of children by passing into Earth through special dimensional portals then bottling the screams thus produced. Believing children are toxic, dangerous creatures who must be kept out of Monstropolis at all costs, Mike and Sully are terrified when they realise that a little girl called 'Boo' has followed them back through a door. Slowly they realise that little Boo isn't actually dangerous at all and uncover a sinister plot that exists behind Monsters Inc's happy facade, involving creepy arch-rival scarer Randall (Steve Buscemi).
