      Dolphin Tale

      A young dolphin frolicking in the ocean was tragically caught by a crab trap and severely damaged its tail. After being spotted by locals, the calf was taken to Clearwater Marine Hospital. There, it was named Winter. However, at this time, its struggle against fate has just begun.
      Mammals like dolphins lose their ability to balance and swim in the water without their tails. Without the ability to swim, it cannot come to the surface to breathe. This meant that Winter would either spend his...

      tepid little fairy tale

      First of all, um, after thinking about it, this should be the first point. Watching 3D movies in Russia is not a little better than in China, whether it is feature films or cartoons.

      When the water splashes in front of you, when the dolphin swims in front of you, it is so close and within reach.

      So, this movie is pretty good for children to watch.

      Due to the language barrier, the feeling is not very strong, and some key dialogues must be overlooked, but the plot is...

      Very warm and inspirational story

      I occasionally see this movie on the browser, and I feel that the name of the movie is very warm. After reading it, I was full of emotions. This dolphin met a kind person who would never give up. The little boy has a mother who can understand him. The little boy’s brother met a mentor played by Morgan Freeman...At the crossroads of life, They all met a teacher who guided their direction. We who are in the celestial dynasty... even the old man who fell into it will not help, let alone the...

      Start accidentally, end eternity

      Suddenly I remembered that I had watched "The Tale of the Faithful Dog Hachiko" and wanted to find some new movies, and found a similar "The Legend of a Dolphin". At first, I was attracted by the very fresh cover, and then I found the source of the film immediately after seeing the introduction.
             At the beginning, I expected it to be a movie that is extremely challenging to tears, and it has been suppressing my emotions all the time.
            When I saw the little dolphin immobile...

      It's really old, and it's quite touching to see. It is a pity that in some places, special effects are used for special effects, but the points are reduced. In addition, this kind of film is going to join in the fun and make a 3D version. Not only does it not add points to the film, but it interferes with the audience to meditate and experience the...
