DOLPHIN TALE, PG ( 1 hr & 52 min )
Quickie Review: A young female dolphin gets badly entangled to a crab-trap. She is rescued and taken to a marine animal hospital in Clearwater, Florida. Unfortunately, her tail could not be saved. But with the patient care and dedication of a few kind souls pledged to help the poor dolphin through its life-threatening ordeal, the dolphin, named Winter, gets a second chance at life when she is fitted with a revolutionary new tail prosthesis. Soon, she becomes the symbol of hope and courage for people with disabilities and the symbol of hope, as well, for badly-maimed marine animals that would otherwise be euthanized.
I liked this movie. The audience, too, liked this movie; so much so that people in the audience gave it a "Hands Clapper" ending.
This movie comes with Bonus Scenes at the End.
What I didn't like about this movie: As much as a "Feel-Good" movie this one is, I was saddened to see that someone in the audience, a young girl, was in a wheelchair. And the movie also shows people who are amputees, especially war veterans. I really, truly felt sad for all of them. I could only pray for them and ask God to watch over them and bless them.
If you're able-bodied, thank God and count your blessings.
