Flipper

Me gusta siempre que la veo, triste pero con muy buena ensenanza

Having grown up in the generation after Flipper originally rode the waves, I grew up with reruns, but I loved that dolphin who influenced so much of my life and love of animals. When they remade Flipper I had to take a look (albeit later, on DVD). and found it to be a sweet, fun remake. Not at all true to the original and frankly, other than the names of characters, not much reminded me of that original. But that’s okay. It doesn’t always have to. So looking at this Flipper, with Elijah Wood and Paul Hogan taking over the human leads, it was and remains charming. No, it doesn’t live up to the originals at all - for me. But it’s still fun. And I give it a 5 star because - on its own - I enjoy it. For me there is a lot of hoaky here, but I still have fun watching.When Woods (Sandy) visits his uncle (Porter) in Florida, the kid isn’t happy. Family life isn’t great and he’s trying to grow in his teen years. Meeting a few locals Woods/Sandy starts to enjoy where he’s at - if not his uncle - and soon meets the best local of all: Flipper, an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin. Together they have adventures until a local fisherman decides Flipper is responsible for things going bad around the waters. You know, rather than what he’s doing. But Woods/Sandy, Flipper, and their friends take action and win the day.This is a fun film and I enjoy it. It’s fun for a Sunday afternoon or movie night. My wife and I love it. When Amazon had a good deal on streaming we added it to our library. It’s fun spending a little more time with Flipper, albeit a new version...

Although I don't no who purchased this flipper will always be a favorite from the 60s.
