“The Family” of white sharks,serving as enforcers of the underwater world, reflects the mockItalian mafia behavior shown in mainstream media. “Shark Tale” is a reflection of urban society andcriminal organizations that greet moviegoers in the majority ofAmerican blockbuster movies. What can be looked upon as stereotypicalattitudes often serve as a reflection of mainstream reality. Oscar’s neighborhood, which has dilapidated apartmentbuildings, graffiti stained walls, and squad cars in the form ofwhales making their rounds during the late night hours, can befound in urban areas in major films. In trying to sustain his newfound fame as “TheShark Slayer,” he learns the age-old lesson that lies candevastate loved ones and discovers in the end that it is better tobe surrounded with love and honesty, than to be a rich cheat. By way of a lie, Oscar succeeds in getting to thetop. Oscar, who has always lived modestly,fatefully has the opportunity to fulfill his dreams of being richand famous. Oscar, an urbanfish who lives in the inner city of the sea, and works at the localWhale Wash, has dreams of “moving on up” to the top ofthe reef. “Shark Tale,” a funny, feel good, family cartoon,starring Will Smith as “Oscar” the fish, proves that acartoon can have the same affect of a movie.
