(There’s a great running gag about the actress who can be heard on recordings everywhere in the facility - as voices of god go, it’s a pretty great one.)Īlso Read: 'Finding Dory' Worries Marine Biologists Over Demand for Rare Fish Their journey takes them to a seaside theme park and research center where Dory grew up. Suddenly flooded with recall - and determined to find the mom and dad she assumes must still be worrying about her - Dory sets off with a reluctant Marlin and an excited Nemo to track down her parents. And the further from her parents she got, the less she remembered them. Raised by Jenny ( Diane Keaton) and Charlie ( Eugene Levy), who did their best to keep little Dory (Sloane Murray) safe and to show her how to find her way home, the small fry suffering from “short term remember-y loss” accidentally made her way into the undertow, taking her away. In the time since the last movie, Dory (DeGeneres) has moved in next door to her crotchety pal Marlin ( Albert Brooks) and his son Nemo (Hayden Rolence) it’s on one of the young fish’s field trips to the stingray migration that she begins having memories of her own family. See Video: New 'Finding Dory' Trailer Scares the Living Ink Out of Touch Pond Squid Still, the studio has figured out an organic reason to bring back the forgetful fish voiced so memorably by Ellen DeGeneres, and they’ve crafted a story that puts her comfortably front and center. Sequel-wise, that puts this follow-up to 2003’s “Finding Nemo” leagues ahead of “Cars 2” and “Monsters University” if not quite at the level of the second and third “Toy Story” entries. And even if “Finding Dory” is less of an assault on the tear ducts than some of its predecessors - I’m still not ready to talk about Bing Bong’s selfless act in “Inside Out” - it more than compensates in the other two departments. Over the years, we’ve come to expect Pixar features, at their best, to function as delivery systems for laughs, tears and adrenaline.
