      Bob Longino Atlanta Journal-Constitution This is a loud, visually busy, offensive in its obviousness and virtually empty computer-animated film from DreamWorks. Rated: D+ Oct 9, 2023 Full Review David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) I laughed quite a lot during this film. Rated: 4/5 Jul 29, 2015 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Fast, fresh, funny action comedy set undersea. Rated: 4/5 Dec 28, 2010 Full Review Mat Brunet AniMat's Review (YouTube) Out of all of the movies by DreamWorks Animation, I’d place Shark Tale among the weakest features they’ve made. If not, then THE worst. Rated: 3/10 Feb 23, 2024 Full Review James Mottram The List As it is, it's an adequate time-killer that benefits from an impressive voice cast... Best of the bunch is Martin Scorsese as puffer-fish Sykes, sounding like he's sucked on helium. Rated: 3/5 Apr 22, 2019 Full Review Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net It's awful and is without a doubt one of the worst mainstream animated films of the last 20 years. Rated: F Mar 11, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
