Dolphin Tale 2 Reviews
A true story that makes me feel good about people. Why can't more people help animals?!
this is the memory of Winter the dolphin 2005-2021
Já não é mais tão fofinho ver animais em cativeiros, dói, mas o filme é incrivelmente apaixonante, estou fascinada pelo pelicano Rufus, Cozi Zuehlsdorff uma fofurinha… Baseada na história da verdadeira Winter golfinho fêmea célebre por ter uma prótese de cauda, e a participação mais que especial Bethany Hamilton, que teve seu braço arrancado por um tubarão enquanto surfava e rendeu um emocionante filme, como este, lindo e sensível, sobre aceitação e inclusão...
One of the rare sequels that live up to the original. I have a feeling these movies will be much loved by my friends and family members.
Dolphin Tale 2 is a thoroughly run-of-the-mill family film that will never surprise any viewer over the age of 4. It continues the “inspired by a true” story of this dolphin with the prosthetic tail, but this time the problem is that her companion dies and dolphins can’t be kept in captivity alone. Of course the humans have their own crises to deal with as well, particularly young Sawyer (the protagonist of both films,) who has to decide if he can walk away from his home and work families in order to pursue further education. I found the movie ridiculously cliche, and it spoon-feeds every single plot point to you. It’s clear that the entire purpose was to make a film as wholesome as humanly possible so that the whole family can watch it. Even the young stars of the film are not allowed to kiss on camera, despite the fact that their romantic feelings are obviously implied throughout the film. It almost feels like one of those church-made movies, but without the heavy-handed Christian messaging. I was most surprised that they were able to get back the entire cast of the first film in order to keep the story going. Dolphin Tale 2 has the feel of a direct-to-video sequel that would just get the same kids and then recast the adults or explain away why the parents weren’t present. Yet they still had a fair number of scenes with Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, and Harry Connick Jr. In fact, one of the weird things was how they tried to shoehorn some of the tertiary characters from the first film into prominent roles in the sequel. For instance, Kyle (the older brother of our main character) suddenly works with the aquarium on some vital level, when he was a complete outsider originally. Despite all its blatant shortcomings, there is a strange warmth that I feel when watching a family film like Dolphin Tale 2. I am fully aware that it’s not a good movie, or a good story, and yet I still care about what will happen in a strange way. I think it makes me nostalgic for the kind of saccharine entertainment I would watch as a kid. I certainly wouldn’t call Dolphin Tale 2 a garbage film, because for its target audience it provides exactly what they are seeking.
It's been a long time since I've seen this movie but I remember not liking it as much as the first one (which I cried all the way through). It's a nice movie overall and it was well done. I like that it draws attention to dolphins and marine life. And Harry Connick Jr... well, he's wonderful.
Dolphins are interesting creatures I found it pretty interesting when I saw the movie
I do you like dolphins it’s pretty good movie
Um...it's decent and all but...the first film was better. Dolphin Tale 2 remains inspiring and harmless enough to appeal to families with Rufus the pelican serving as a perfectly serviceable comic relief but it lacks the more effective emotional impact of the first film. Talk about false advertising, Hope - also played by the real dolphin than a dolphin trained into an actor, like Winter, who reappears as herself in this true story sequel - constantly appears in advertising, yet she doesn't even appear until the last 10 minutes of film...or somewhere within that amount of time. And time goes by at a REALLY fast pace. It didn't exactly need to be made, even though when an inspiring true story happens, filmmakers will want to get their hands on the rights for a dramatized film adaptation. So, what do I think of Dolphin Tale 2? Decent acting, some inspiring drama and its friendly nature keep it afloat but DT2 can't be saved from a sense of false advertising and ultimately feeling forgettable. Stick with the first one.
It's cute and more than competent for family fare but it lacks the beautiful subtext of the first and an overall sense of purpose.
Dolphin Tale 2 is a must see.I've watched it over a hundred times! It's a movie based on a true story that has a meaning to it,it makes you think what why are we polluting the ocean all we're doing is harming the beautiful animals that live in it same goes for the land animals to.What can we do to make a difference?Think about it.But overall no hard feelings but I thought Dolphin Tale 1 was the best but I still watch both thanks for reading!
Feel good movie about the rescue and rehabilitation of injured dolphins. Entertaining and family friendly.
For having this be a SQL I would say it was just OK. It's hard to beat the 1st film of dolphin tale. But the scenery was good and it was beautiful. Kids will love this movie!! But it's good to know that people save other animals. And if you like animals this could be the movie for you!! To see!
While there is some sugary fluff in this not-really-necessary sequel, it's much more restraint than others and still has enough old school charm to spare for the whole family.
