Rating: - The Introduction to the Hero of the Sea
Sandy Ricks (Luke Halpin) is the son of a fisherman living in the Florida Keys. When a hurricane hits their island, Porter Rick's (Chuck Connors) book is destroyed and he must head to the mainland to get it fixed.
Sandy, meanwhile, accompanies his friend Kim (Connie Scott) on a fun filled day of swimming and fishing. The day ends on a sad note when a dolphin gets hit with a spear. Even though it is badly hurt, Sandy can't stand to see it killed, so he brings it home and nurses it back to health. But what will his dad say when he returns?
Rating: - INTERESTING FAMILY MOVIE THAT INSPIRED THE HIT TV SHOW!
I was a fan of the TV show and had not seen the original movie in many years. It's interesting to see how Sandy and Flipper become close friends in this nice little family movie. Chuck Conners plays 'Porter Ricks' in this film, but would be re-cast in the TV series and they would add another son. Another little gem I found in the bargain bin. The DVD transfer looks good.
Rating: - Great family sunday night popcorn film.
Good clean fun. Hollywood has lost the art of film making over the last 40 years. This is an excellent step back in time for film buffs. A great and entertaining film for the whole family. The kids will go to sleep at night dreaming of sunny beaches and friendly animals after watching this, instead of wondering who will survive on "Survivor", or who's going to bomb what on "24". If your wondering what your kids should be watching it is this movie.
Rating: - GrandKids loved it
I had purchased this for my granddaughter who loves dolphins. I remember watching it with my children 30 years ago. All three of my grandchildren loved it as well as the other two I had purchased.
