Izzie's Way Home is a 2016 American animated fantasy adventure film produced by The Asylum.[3] It is The Asylum's first animated feature, and is a mockbuster of the 2016 Pixar Animation Studios film Finding Dory.[4]
Izzie is a fish who lives with her father Harold in an aquarium, and is frequently bullied by the other fish in the vicinity. Harold tries to protect Izzie from being returned to the ocean by the human who maintains the aquarium, as that very event is what separated them from Izzie's mother. Izzie and Harold do end up being returned to the sea, and are separated during the eruption of an underwater volcano. A boat holding the aquarium tips over, causing the other fish to spill into the waters. Izzie befriends the other fish as she and her father search for one another.
Dove found the movie to be appropriate for all ages.[5] CG Animated Review considered "while the film wasn't great, it was better than expected, and a good effort for the Asylum's first animated film".[6] Andrea Beach of Common Sense Media gave the film one star out of five, saying, "Low-budget undersea adventure is boring and lifeless."[7]
