''Help! I'm a Fish'' also known as ''A Fish Tale'' is an animated ScienceFantasy feature film from 2000 by the Danish animation company Creator/AFilm, although [[ShortRunInPeru it was originally released, produced and recorded in English in an attempt to increase revenue]]. It was later released in Danish under the title "''Hjælp, jeg er en fisk''". Despite the English original cast, it wasn't until 2006 that it came to U.S. shores, under the title ''A Fish Tale''. Not to mention it had ''[[CoversAlwaysLie really sucky]]'' [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/5175t929s1l_ac_uf8941000_ql80.jpg cover art]]. The English voice cast certainly wasn't something to sneeze at though, boasting of cast members such as Creator/TerryJones in a supporting role and Creator/AlanRickman as the BigBad (and a pre-fame Creator/AaronPaul as one of the main characters as well as Agent 47 himself, Creator/DavidBateson in two supporting roles).

** Fly and Stella’s [[MeaningfulName names]] were also foreshadowing what kind of fish they were going to turn into. Fly’s was certainly more obvious, and the name Stella means “star”.
