Dolphin Tale 2

No I still hate SeaWorld.

Sentimental. Sincere. Obvious. Overlong. Harmless, I suppose. My kids bugged me for weeks about wanting to see it, so I took them to it. They clapped at the end and said they loved it, but they'd probably forgotten all about it by the time we got home.

And that, in many ways, is a great thing. The story picks up, naturally and realistically, where the last left off. (Which only makes sense, given that both movies are based on Winter's true story.) You might not feel an urge to bite your nails while watching, but the story's still a compelling, beautifully shot voyage that gives its young target audience exactly what it wants: dolphins and people who care about one another while making it easy for us to care about them.

While the handicapped dolphin angle is an highly charitable one, there wasn't all that much here besides the 'crippled Flipper' plot. And to cover up that they get a couple of well known names to pretend this is a major movie like Morgan Freeman and have Kris Kristofferson stand in the background doing nothing.

awesome cool and neat dolphin movie 10 out of 10 winter and hope are awesome

As warm and loving as the first; the inspirational heart of the predecessor carries over completely to this deserved sequel. It's syrupy and sentimental, but it feels so well-intentioned that it's difficult to be avoid being won over by its heart-on-sleeve optimism.
