‘Finding Dory’: a spoiler-free movie review for parents

Posted on by AllEars
Dory may be forgetful, but "Finding Dory" is not forgettable. Not by a long shot. Disney-Pixar's sequel to "Finding Nemo" takes us deeper into the Big Blue World and introduces us to a new cast of characters that blend seamlessly with Marlin, Nemo and other favorites from 13 years ago. Has it really been that long since we met the clownfish? "Finding Dory" takes moviegoers on a journey that is highlighted by laughter. I can't remember the last movie that prompted me to laugh out loud so much in one sitting. And if our theater's audience -- which was comprised of a mix of adults and teens on their own and families with younger and older children -- was a good example, the humor appealed to all ages.
