Shark Tale is a 2004 movie produced by DreamWorks Animation with probably the biggest ensemble cast in an animated DreamWorks movie (although Kung Fu Panda is close). Starring Will Smith, Jack Black, Robert De Niro, Angelina Jolie, Renée Zellweger and even director Martin Scorsese. Every character in the movie looks like a fish version of the actor voicing them.This mafia movie, set in the world of saltwater fish, is the story of what happens when Frankie, one of the sons of shark crime boss Don Lino (De Niro) is killed by a dropped anchor, and a bottom-feeder named Oscar (Smith) is found at the scene of the crime. Hoping to win favor with the enemies of the ganglord, the fast-talking hustler poses as the killer known as the "sharkslayer", but soon learns it's a dangerous game in a world where the big fish generally eat the little fish...It's basically what The Godfather would be, if there were talking fish and Will Smith.Previews: Trailer #1, Trailer #2, Trailer #3

Father, I Don't Want to Fight
 Shark Tale / int_11d4d3cc
comment
Father, I Don't Want to Fight: The plot's conflict is kicked off as a result of Don Lino being unable to accept that his son Lenny is a vegetarian and doesn't want to eat fish. This prods him into sending Frankie to teach Lenny how to "be a real shark", eventually leading to Frankie's death-by-anchor.

Does This Remind You of Anything?: Lenny. He's vegetarian, wishes to be a dolphin and tries to hide this secret to his family. Don't forget the speech Oscar makes after he's trapped Lenny and Don Lino in the whale wash: "What is your problem? So, your son likes kelp. So, his best friend is a fish. So he likes to dress like a dolphin, so what?! Everybody loves him, just the way he is. Why can't you?"

 Shark Tale / int_1869b4b1
comment
The film's plot revolves around the entire reef believing that Oscar was somehow able to kill a shark several times his size, despite there being no evidence other than him being found at the scene and his obviously exaggerated retelling of the event. Even Sykes and Angie, both of whom know all too well that Oscar is a compulsive liar who is desperate for attention and has no combat skills to speak of, are completely convinced by his deception until they discover the truth just by chance.

Which is hilariously misleading, when you consider that Great Whites are among the few shark species which actually are warm-blooded and give live birth. Then again, maybe that's why Frankie called him a moron.

Poor Communication Kills: One of the major conflicts of the movie (Angie's unrequited crush on Oscar and jealousy of Lola) only comes about because Angie goes out of her way to hide her feelings from Oscar, seemingly expecting him to figure it out by himself despite knowing him for years and presumably being well-aware of his stupidity.

 Shark Tale / int_22cf536c

Chekhov's Gun: Angie is seen in her first scene with a sheet of paper showing how much she loves Oscar but hides it when he enters. Oscar later finds it after he is told she has been kidnapped, to show how much he means to her and her love for him is sincere. The Whale Wash's whale restraints are initially used to stop a whale from squirming after it gets soap in its eye, and are later used as part of Oscar's plan to trap Don Lino. This ends up trapping Lenny instead, so Oscar uses the Whale Wash's other mechanisms to do the job.

comment
Furry Confusion: Don Lino the shark keeps a tank of piranhas as his pets. Exactly why piranhas are considered pets despite every other species of fish in the movie being fully sapient (including predatory fish like the sharks themselves) goes unexplained. In the opening, a talking clam tries to give a pearl to a Prawn Shop owner. Later on, Angie gives her grandmother’s pearl to Oscar inside a clam that is not sapient at all.

The Dreaded: Don Lino, logically, since everyone fears sharks and he's the boss of all sharks. Sykes can barely keep a cool head when they talk face to face (and he's someone who does not hesitate to throw his weight around in the presence of normal fish) and even Lino's own sons — despite their mutual love — fear incurring his wrath.

What Measure Is a Non-Cute?
 Shark Tale / int_2e528f4e
comment
What Measure Is a Non-Cute?: To the fish population of the Reef, Lenny, a shark, is scary as one, but cuddly and safe when he disguises himself as a dolphin (just so we're clear, dolphins eat fish too, but they're cute! ...but this led to a few reviewers reading a stronger metaphor in it...). Funny thing, is, the movie actually uses this, when Oscar tries to subvert I Have Your Wife by having Lenny fake eating his girlfriend. The "attack" appears to be just as quick and almost as savage as... well, a shark attack, which becomes rather clever on Lenny's part when you realize that dolphins have different fins than sharks and he would have to move quickly and frighteningly to keep the focus away from his traitorous body parts.

Money Dumb: Oscar is shown throughout the first half of the film to be incredibly irresponsible with his money. Even before the film's events, it's said that he's gotten several "advance payments" from Sykes that he's spent on get-rich-quick schemes, all of which have failed, putting him in debt to Sykes for five thousand clams. When Angie gives him her treasured family heirloom in order to get the money he needs, Oscar ends up betting it on a horse race and loses all of it.

Actor Allusion
 Shark Tale / int_392372f9
comment
Actor Allusion: When Oscar shouts "You had me at hello!" on TV, Angie is seen grinning. Renée Zellweger, who voiced Angie, made the quote famous in Jerry Maguire. Speaking of Renée Zellweger, earlier in the film, Angie is seen writing her innermost thoughts about her and Oscar. Hmmmm, sound familiar? Also, lines such as De Niro's character Don Lino saying, "I heard things" plus a conversation between the De Niro character and the Scorsese character (Sykes) spoof their infamous repeat the same lines back at one another. Oscar asks Lenny if his father Lino is "the Godfather or something". Robert De Niro played Vito Corleone as a young man in the second Godfather movie. The crowd even shouts "Oscar Bumaye!" the same where a crowd shouts "Ali Bumaye!" to Muhammad Ali (Will Smith plays Ali in his 2001 Biopic). Oscar's "Pants" are big like Will Smith's clothes were before in his older works. Ira Feinberg played by Peter Falk mentions his wife at one point. When Lenny asks Oscar if it’s him, Oscar sarcastically says, "No, it’s Pinocchio!" Funny enough, Will Smith actually voiced Pinocchio in an episode of Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child.

The Smart Guy: Lenny. You think at first it's just wishful thinking on Don Lino's part, but Lenny is pretty sharp. He's the first to realize that Oscar is lying. He comes up with the successful plan to fake his own death. He disguises himself as a dolphin so well that he attends a sit-down with his own father and isn't recognised. He even skilfully blackmails Oscar into taking him — a shark — home. When he talks all smooth and "God forbid somebody should find out the truth", you remember that yeah, he may look all cute and vegetarian, but he's still the son of a Mafia Shark — and he knows the tricks of the trade.

comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: At one point, there's a subtle blink-and-you-miss it moment where Luca pours out some tea to Don Lino. Due to the entire film being set underwater, the tea instantly disperses into the surrounding water around them, showing that the Water Is Air trope is not in effect in this universe. Oscar overhears that the seahorse race is rigged for Lucky Day, seemingly making him a guaranteed win and prompting Oscar to bet the entire five grand on him. The race being rigged by outside forces doesn’t prevent random chance from interfering or the horse itself from making mistakes, as Lucky Day trips in the final stretch and comes in last place.

Broken Aesop: The film tries to have an aesop about honesty and appreciating what you have rather than chasing material wealth. Oscar certainly claims to have learned this lesson, but you can't deny the direct and indirect benefits. His fake persona even helps him defeat a shark for real. According to the movie, lying makes sure: You will become rich and famous for a short time. Your best friend will admit that she loves you and she'll forgive you for treating her like she didn't matter until the last second. You net another best friend and you mend his broken relationship with his father. Which will then convince the shark mafia to avoid eating the fish in this particular reef. And of course, you'll be easily forgiven by everyone (even your enemies) and be rewarded with a cool new job. It’s as if nobody really cared about Oscar spreading such significant lies or committing fraud.

comment
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Sykes comes off as a really nasty Loan Shark at first, but later he and Angie see Oscar kissing Lola on TV, and it looks like he was aware of her feelings for him, since he looks deeply sympathetic. He's willing to go even shares with Oscar, and while he's certainly more concerned with business, puts up with a lot from Oscar considering how frustrating he must be. Don Lino, while grumpy and short tempered, genuinely cares for his sons, and upon Oscar admitting the truth to him, he apologizes to Lenny and reforms.

Butt-Monkey: Oscar at first, although some of it is self-inflicted. He works in a dead-end job and wants to be rich and famous, but lacks the means to do so. He also owes a lot of money to Sykes, he gets painfully stung in the eye by Ernie and Bernie, and when he impulsively bets the money he has to owe Sykes, the horse he bets on loses and he gets punished by being tied up and stung repeatedly by Ernie and Bernie. He tries to avert this by lying about killing Frankie and becoming the Shark Slayer. He also gets easily beaten up by Lola.

I Have a Family: When Lino tries to pressure Lenny into eating a shrimp, the shrimp starts crying that he has a family, then goes on to describe his nephew in excruciating detail as Lenny and Lino argue. As it turns out, the shrimp wasn't bluffing: the baby makes an appearance when the shrimp and his friends attack Don Lino when he's stuck in a porthole.

Even Evil Has Loved Ones: A major theme of the story. Frankie may be a violent mobster and a generally unpleasant person, but his death upsets not just his family, but the entire shark community. Driven home when, just before reaching his Rage Breaking Point, Don Lino asks Oscar, "What did I ever do to you?" in a genuinely heartbroken tone, unable to comprehend why Oscar would do something as personal as seemingly killing both his sons.

Having gotten the sharks to agree to his terms, Oscar could have left and everything would have been fine, but he simply couldn't stop running his mouth. Result: Lenny is unable to keep Angie in his mouth any longer and throws her up, blowing his cover and enraging Don Lino enough to attack.

Protection in Mouth: While attending a hostage negotiation with the Shark Mafia for Oscar's love interest Angie, Oscar pretends not to care and plays up his tough image by having Lenny the Shark (disguised as a dolphin) "eat" Angie, possibly inspired by Lenny's earlier near-swallowing of him. Unfortunately, Oscar stays too long to gloat, and it suddenly becomes relevant again that Lenny can't stand the taste of fish when he spews her out onto the table from where he hid her in his cheeks.

Idiot Ball: Despite knowing that Oscar is an impulsive charlatan with a history of falling for get-rich-quick schemes, Sykes arranges for him to deliver the money he owes by meeting him at the race track. Unsurprisingly, Oscar can't resist the temptation to bet all the money he owes Sykes on a horse, and loses it as a result. The film's plot revolves around the entire reef believing that Oscar was somehow able to kill a shark several times his size, despite there being no evidence other than him being found at the scene and his obviously exaggerated retelling of the event. Even Sykes and Angie, both of whom know all too well that Oscar is a compulsive liar who is desperate for attention and has no combat skills to speak of, are completely convinced by his deception until they discover the truth just by chance.

Reality Is Unrealistic: While critics and audiences derided Ernie and Bernie's Jamaican accents, they are actually closer to the real thing than most people expect. The voice actors are real Jamaicans, after all (one of them is even the son of Bob Marley).

Oscar is introduced in a Bait-and-Switch moment where it looks like he's hanging out in a fancy apartment, but it turns out to be just a billboard. His first scene with Angie also reveals him working on another get-rich-quick scheme, both illustrating how much he wants a piece of the good life.

Self-Serving Memory: At one point, Oscar contemplates betting Angie's pearl on a rigged seahorse race instead of using it to pay off Sykes' debt and tries to remember what she said on the night she gave it to him. However, while the real Angie told him to pay off his debt, flashback Angie's words are distorted to the point where she outright tells Oscar to "bet it all".

No-Respect Guy: Oscar's main motivation. He doesn't seem to get much respect at the wash, and seems to get himself into unwanted situations. In his youth, he admired his dad Earl's work at the Wash so much he decided to bring it to school for show and tell, only for the class to cruelly mock him. This tragic disaster causes him consider himself a loser and a "nobody." Since then, Oscar believes that in order to get the respect he yearns for, he has to become rich and famous. He finds his chance when the shark chasing him is killed by a fallen anchor, and takes the credit becoming known as the "Sharkslayer." Oscar soon lets his great white lie go into his head and make him rich, not noticing or appreciating what he already had, until Angie blurts out her crush and genuine respect for him, leading Oscar to his Character Development.

Oscar also doesn't mind entering a relationship with Lola even though she called him a "nobody" earlier in the film and continues to be her boyfriend even while she is constantly belittling and abusing him. Justified in both this and the above case, as he's probably too busy enjoying his new clout to hold any grudges.

Foreshadowing: The spray painting the Shorties do on the billboard at the beginning. The shark looks like Don Lino.

Though he's in great pain and the affected eye is shown to be bloodshot, Oscar wipes it away afterwards and the whale's no worse for wear. Oscar gets stung in the eye by Ernie and Bernie. He is stuck with a black eye for a decent amount of time afterwards. After Frankie's death, Oscar starts doing martial arts moves and noises as Ernie and Bernie sneak up behind him. Unaware of their presence, Oscar accidentally hits one of them in the eye, leading to a Reactive Continuous Scream.

comment
Jacob and Esau: Frankie and Lenny apparently have a bit of this going on with their parents. Frankie (a gruff, macho predator) clearly takes after his father, Don Lino, in terms of his personality. The sharks' mother only appears briefly at Frankie's funeral, but Lenny's claim that "Mom said it's not okay to hit!" coupled with Frankie's response ("Mom's not here.") implies that she usually takes Lenny's side in arguments, and Lenny's effeminate, kindhearted demeanor marks him as a stereotypical mama's boy.

"Eureka!" Moment: When Oscar decides to save Angie from the mob, Lenny lets it slip out to Sykes that Oscar is a phony. Sykes is horrified to discover this (earlier in the movie, Sykes joyfully told Lino, the head shark, to shut up), and begs Oscar to say he is a real Sharkslayer. Oscar admits he isn't, then realizes that the sharks don't know he's a fraud and gets the idea to keep up his charade long enough to rescue Angie.

Fake Ultimate Hero: Oscar is hailed as a "shark slayer" (the film's original title) after the shark chasing him is killed by a wayward anchor and he takes all the credit. Ironic considering Oscar appears to be the physically weakest character in the film, appearing to be weaker than the female fish characters.

Red Herring: After a whale goes berserk in the Whale Wash due to some soap in the eye, Oscar activates a "CRAB" restraint system to keep him in place until he wipes the soap off. While being chased by Don Lino into the Whale Wash in the climax, he activates the "CRAB" system again...only to find out he caught Lenny by accident. Oscar has to resort using all the brushes in the facility to hold Don Lino in place instead.

The shrimp is gleeful to be spared and then gives a Death Glare towards Don Lino with an "I'll get ya!" fist expression. He makes good on that promise when he shows up again near the end of the movie and sics an army of his friends on Don while his head is stuck through a porthole.

Tiger by the Tail: Oscar's getting famous off Frankie's death spirals into the population wanting him to fight more sharks despite his lack of actual fighting ability, which then spirals into Oscar having to help Lenny fake his death so the latter doesn't tip him off to Don Lino, which leads to Lino kidnapping Angie in revenge for both his sons' deaths. Angie tries to get him to reveal the truth, but Oscar laughs her off since doing so would not only result in him losing all of his fame, but also likely result in him getting eaten by the sharks, who wouldn't be afraid of him anymore.

Water Is Air: Lampshaded when a race seahorse Oscar had bet on trips before the finish line. Also, the Shorties are seen swimming around a hydrant. They unscrew it and bubbles flow out! This begs the question of what that underwater hydrant is supposed to be used for... When (the) Seal falls onto the pavement, he's not slowed down by the water at all and his landing makes an audible slapping noise.

Metal Muncher: The Great White Sharks are all shown to be Extreme Omnivores with part of their diet being metallic items, and since Lenny is a 'vegetarian shark' that's pretty much all he eats. There is some Truth in Television to this as while sharks don't actually need to consume them, such objects do have a tendency of ending up in their stomach.

Easily Forgiven: Oscar doesn't exactly hold the fact that Sykes ordered him murdered against him, even going so far as to let Sykes and the would-be killers Ernie and Bernie profit off of his new image. Oscar also doesn't mind entering a relationship with Lola even though she called him a "nobody" earlier in the film and continues to be her boyfriend even while she is constantly belittling and abusing him. Justified in both this and the above case, as he's probably too busy enjoying his new clout to hold any grudges. Also, everyone forgives Oscar easily for lying about being the Shark Slayer.

Gold Digger: Lola. In her first scene, she even calls herself superficial! Also, the name of the song by Ludacris and Bobby Valentino featured in her introduction. She also forcefully kisses Oscar in front of the cameras, causing Angie to leave in jealousy, anger, and sadness. When Angie confesses Oscar her love for him, Oscar rethinks his feelings and dumps Lola—which unfortunately, leads to her great fury as she mercilessly slams him against the windows. Lola crosses the line even further as she then arranges Don Lino to kidnap Angie, even gleefully threatening her life if Oscar doesn't comply.''

Meta Casting: Since the film is an Affectionate Parody of Martin Scorsese mafia and gangster films, it makes sense to have Scorsese himself play one of the major characters. At one point in the film, Oscar incorrectly sings Bob Marley's "Three Little Birds". His singing is interupted by one of the jellyfish characters named Ernie who says "that's not the way you sing that song, mon!" Ernie's voice actor? Bob Marley's son himself, Ziggy.

Sykes comes off as a really nasty Loan Shark at first, but later he and Angie see Oscar kissing Lola on TV, and it looks like he was aware of her feelings for him, since he looks deeply sympathetic. He's willing to go even shares with Oscar, and while he's certainly more concerned with business, puts up with a lot from Oscar considering how frustrating he must be.

Brick Joke: Two during the climax The Headphone Guy who Oscar attempts to save from a whale's indigestion at the Whale Wash later reappears to put an air freshener on Lino. The shrimp that Lino unsuccessfully tries to get Lenny to eat ends up being returning near the climax, where he and his friends attack Lino while the shark's stuck in a porthole. The Shorties end up spray-painting Crazy Joe's shell, though the crab actually likes the new design and suggests they do it for a living. As seen during the Dance Party Ending, they took up that offer.
