FINDING DORY 3D



FINDING DORY 3D:  Sure to be a bit hit, this sequel to "Finding Nemo" delivers all the charm and childhood scares that we expect.  With a stellar cast including Ellen DeGeneres as Dory and Albert Brooks, Ty Burrell, Diane Keaton, Ed O'Neill, Idris Elba, Eugene Levy and Willem Dafoe adding their voices to this animated treasure.  The plot is of little importance... Dory is looking for her parents and her travels take her from under the sea to the Marine Life Institute, a conservatory that houses diverse ocean creatures.  With the help of a clown fish named Marlin and a seven-legged Octopus named Hank, she "just keeps on swimming". What works here is the sheer innocence of Dory and the fact that she has short term memory loss.  Trouble ensues.... I won't go on and on about this lovely film (although comparisons to the original make it come up short, in my book), suffice it to say,  I enjoyed it thoroughly, and you will too.   You know you'll see it, don't you?  Do I dare hope for "Finding Hank" in the future?
