* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: After the first film made such a big deal about just getting to Australia, it can seem pretty weird that this film treats crossing ''the entire Pacific Ocean'' so casually. Though many fans are willing to forgive it as it lets most of the film take place in a new location that stops it from feeling like a complete retread.

commenting out Les Yay and One Scene Wonder for now. despite what trailers suggest there was very little indication the couple were anything more than friends; the baby carriage wasn't even theirs. if disagree can restore.

** The finale, [[spoiler: Dory and Hank ''[[CrazyAwesome steal a freaking truck, while its owners are driving it on the highway.]]'' Hank uses his tentacles to drive the truck while Dory, of all people, gives him direction, culminating in the two launching the truck ''off the cliff'', which flips over and releases all the aquatic animals contained within, letting all of them to fall back into the ocean. The sheer craziness of this could even tops the 'Toys Drive Car' scene from Toy Story 2, and has to be seen to be believed.]]

* {{Sequelitis}}: ''Finding Dory'' is an odd case among Pixar movies. Its Rotten Tomatoes score is in the mid-90s, putting it nearly on par with ''Finding Nemo'' and Pixar's other acclaimed classics, but the reviews themselves frequently note that [[ToughActToFollow the movie isn't as good as its predecessor]], similar to reviews for ''WesternAnimation/MonstersUniversity''.

** This has begun to crop up in critic reviews, that the fact that the film repeats a lot of the same beats as the first film is a major flaw.

film is mostly well-received by critics, the fact that the film repeats it retreads a lot of the same beats as plot elements from the first film makes ''Finding Dory'' a less powerful story.
* JerkassWoobie: Hank
is a major flaw.cranky octopus who is frequently rude towards Dory, and is seemingly only helping her to get her quarantine tag. But the fact that he's traumatized from being mishandled by people (in fact, the reason why he's so desperate to get Dory's quarantine tag is to be able to live a peaceful, secluded life without any contact with others) and was clearly terrified when he found himself in a touch tank makes him much more sympathetic.
