Finding Nemo still stands up on re-viewing as a perfectly-formed, complete and rightly well-loved movie from Pixar's golden streak, so to revisit that success thirteen years later might have seemed questionable, but the result is a delight. Finding Dory is a beautifully-written, gorgeously-realised and smart comfort blanket of a film, that fits seamlessly with the original film but offers great new creatures and some charming ideas along the way. By focussing on Dory's story and piecing together her gradually-emerging memories of her backstory, her arc and journey through the film become compelling and immensely sympathetic. Finding Dory is a very worthy successor to the first film and is hugely enjoyable throughout in its own right.
