Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Wordiezett So much average

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

cricketbat Note to self: Just because something is on instant viewing does not make it worth watching. The Dolphin: Story of a Dreamer is a horrible mess. It's boring (for children and adults), the story is pointless, the dialogue is terrible and the animation looks like it was done as a class project in a high school. I only watched it to the end because someone asked me to. . .and I curse their name for it.

Pyp Rivers This movie had lovely animation and beautiful colors. It was really not as bad as many of the other posters have written. The plot is too complex for young viewers and it has some very, very scary moments--so it is not appropriate for children under 9 or 10 I'd say. It has some pretty good points about following dreams, not being afraid to stand up for what was right (courage), not being a blind follower, etc. If you have another good choice for family night that is age appropriate for young children, perhaps you should choose it. However, the animators and actors were on the right track here and just need to really work on the writing. I was not sure if these were biblical allusions in the movie (Lucifer was the big monstrous fish, I guess?)Pretty good movie. A bit too long, and a bit too scary, and in great need of a better script, but it has a lot of potential and you can use it to teach the kids about sea animals.

Barry Nofzinger This movie has no idea what it is about. One minute, the dolphin is following his dreams, the next minute he is on a quest to find out what he saw in a dream. There is a difference, you know. It would be one thing if this movie was about a dolphin who likes to play and surf, but this movie tries to be more than it is. KISS- Keep It Simple Sam is the motto they should have used. Make the dolphin a character that likes to laugh and play and leaves the pod seeking adventure and leave it at that. Too confusing, no real plot line and no real link with the story and many of the characters. Surprisingly bad movie. The only plus to the movie is that the scenery is really nice. My guess is that they spent all their money on graphics and didn't have any money to make the story any better.

Robert Larsson This movie is among the worst animated movies I ever seen. To start with the animation sloppy (it is more CGI doodle than it is CGI animation). The characters looks & moves like plastic toys. The animation is so bad that even with a good written story it would be hard to forgive it. The main character is that kind of parent approved hero that don't do much more than telling the small minded kids obvious life lessons. He has a street talking squid-sidekick that is just as cowardly as he is annoying (unfortunately he not as funny). There is also a lot of other characters like the little non-stop talking dolphin & a "CUTE" fish baby that never shut up. The story is never anything more than pointless messages & stupid plot conveniences. If you really want to see this movie take a bath with a drunk Roald Dahl, playing with some plastic animals & it will be the same experience.
