The strength of the original was that both Nemo and Marlin grew as characters. Here, Dory gets most of the development, but it isn't really through any realizations or maturity. They stretch believability even further with this installment, to the point it starts to get a bit much. Remember "all drains go to the ocean?" Yeah, it's worse. Salt water fish can apparently breath any kind of water anywhere.
My biggest issue is that it seems to teach acting without forethought
and that it's good to move on instinct alone. Not the sort of lesson I
agree with, unlike the lessons of the first (there's a time to let go,
overcome your fears and stand on your own). The lack of a strong lesson
makes this a more shallow experience overall.
The humor is good and there are some very adorable parts, though. I recommend seeing it if you liked the first.
