Oceanic wise guys meet up with a small fish who has a big attitude in this computer-animated
comedy.
Don Lino (voice of
Robert De Niro) is the patriarch of a family of sharks who lord over a bustling aquatic community based along a massive underwater reef.
Don Lino has two sons,
Frankie (voice of
Michael Imperioli) and
Lenny (voice of
Jack Black);
Frankie is a carnivorous tough guy who takes after his father, but
Lenny is, at heart, a kind soul who has earned the ire of his dad by becoming a vegetarian. One of
Don Lino's cronies is
Sykes (voice of
Martin Scorsese), who runs a "whale wash" where
Oscar (voice of
Will Smith) scrubs aquatic mammals for a living.
Oscar is a small but ambitious fish who dreams of making something of himself, and when a dropped anchor accidentally kills
Frankie,
Oscar is suddenly (if mistakenly) celebrated as "the shark killer."
Oscar's overnight fame attracts the attentions of
Lola (voice of
Angelina Jolie), a slinky dragon fish who woos
Oscar away from his steady date,
Angie (voice of
Renée Zellweger); however,
Oscar strikes up a friendship with
Lenny and has to decide what to do when
Don Lino and
Sykes decides it's time to "take care" of the "different" shark. Also popping up in
Shark Tale's all-star voice cast are
Peter Falk,
Vincent Pastore,
Ziggy Marley, and
Katie Couric.
