Shark Tale is a computer-animated movie produced by DreamWorks SKG and was released on October 1, 2004. It stars the voices of Will Smith, Angelina Jolie, Renée Zellweger and Robert De Niro. The original title for this movie was Sharkslayer.
The undersea underworld is shaken up when Frankie (voiced by Michael Imperioli), the son of the shark mob boss, Don Lino (voiced by Robert De Niro), is deep sixed, and an innocent young fish named Oscar (voiced by Will Smith) is found at the scene of the crime. A bottom-feeding hustler, Oscar takes the credit for saving the reef and basks in the glory of playing the great Sharkslayer, but soon discovers that he is in way over his head. When Oscar's act threatens to sink him and the entire reef, it's up to him to face the truth and become the real Sharkslayer.
Martin Scorsese and Jack Black also star. Christina Aguilera and Missy 'Misdemeanor' Elliott make a cameo appearance in the end of Shark Tale.
Tagline: Behind every little fish is a great white lie.
The movie has allegedly been sued for stereotypes. Plus it has been banned in certain communities in the United States, which hurt ticket sales.
