Shark Tale: The Complete Story

"How can you criticize a movie that hasn't even been released?"

The same way that the B'nai B'rith and other Jewish organizations can criticize or object to Mel Gibson's "The Passion", which they believe depicts Jews in an unfavorable manner. Except Jewish concerns, unlike ours, have not been roundly dismissed as 'political correctness', unjustifiable 'hypersensitivity', or a cry for 'censorship".

Further, the question would only be valid if we were discussing the film's technical or artistic quality, or some similar esoteric aspect that must be viewed before fair judgement can be made. We need only refer to DreamWorks' own promos to know what's coming in terms of ethnic depictions. See www.sharktale.com.

Note to viewers: DreamWorks has since changed their website after the Institute began protesting Shark Tale back in October. The plot and character names have been removed. However, visit the International Movie Data Base site (www.imdb.com)and type in "Shark Tale". The cast and character names, as well as the cartoon's plot, are on full display.
