Being a Clearwater, FL native and growing up 15min from where this film was shot, I was praying and hoping this would be a good movie. IT WAS TRASH!!! I cant believe this was a big screen movie. This belongs on the shelves of the Clearwater Aquarium gift shop, not for the whole nation to see.
Clearwater is amazing everybody. We have the cleanest beaches with the best sand in all of Florida. One of the only locations not littered with condos and hotels. And I swear we are not as cheesy and fake as this movie.
BURN IT!!!! BURN IT!!!!! Send it to Hell!!!!! |

A boy gets an instant connection with a dolphin when he saw her hurt on a crab trap. He then checks on her everytime in the marine hospital and finds out that her tail has to be taken-off in order for her to live.

It was really heartwarming watch, and I swear this movie really lights up fire of hope to everyone who happened to have disabilities, this movie is really touching and moving.
However, I don't get the point why this film has to be in 3D, it's good by itself, the story knocks out!

Can You Say "Cheese"? |

For a film that's supposed to be based off a true story, the whole film feels as fake as the many prosthetic tales made for the star of the film; a dolphin named Winter.
The movie is about a young boy named Sawyer, who is very anti-social, and not doing very well in Summer school. One day, he finds a beached dolphin entangled in a rope and a crab trap. The boy immediately has feelings for the dolphin, and stops by the marine animals hospital everyday to check on the creature. It appears there is little hope for the dolphin to survive, do the dolphin's tale (or more specifically; lack of).
Among many problems with this film, the biggest is the movie's lack of a reason to exist. The story has obviously been greatly fabricated from it's source, the acting is passible, the attempts at... |

Review of Dolphin Tale |
|
It's a wonderful thing, albeit rare, when Hollywood decides to make a movie that takes a real life event and turns it into 113 minutes of entertainment for the whole family. Knowing ahead of time how much my daughter and I both love dolphins, and how much of a sucker I am for a "makes you cry-but in a GOOD way" type of film, I had high hopes for this one. Let me tell you what they got right---and where they should have stepped away.
THE GOOD: The movie is based on a true story of 'Winter', a young dolphin who becomes tangled in a fishing net, causing irreversible damage to her tail. On his way to school, Sawyer (played by Nathan Gamble) sees her stranded on the shore and with his help, frees her from the ropes and assists with the local marine hospital in coming to her rescue. Sawyer i... |
