From Shrek to Sharks

It is a story about a gang of mobster sharks, and there are lots of very famous people in it, like Will Smith, Robert De Niro, Jack Black, and Angelina Jolie. Christina Aguilera sings the theme song.

The story centres on the Mafia-like antics of a group of sharks and fish that live on a tropical reef in the sea.
