A new classic -- Water Horse

Date of Review:  Jan 2, 2008
The Bottom Line: More of a character study than an action film
Review: Since the day she saw the first preview, Monkey girl had her heart on seeing Walden Media's The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep. Even when Alvin and the Chipmunks entered her radar, she still opted to see this new version of the Loch Ness monster...

Waterhorse:Legend Of The Deep~A Sweet Beast In The Loch Ness

Date of Review:  May 14, 2008
The Bottom Line: A fun feelgood action adventure monster movie for children of all ages.
Review: There are monsters and there are monsters. Most monsters are big and nasty, terribly frightening and are the stuff of horror movies, others can be misguided and misunderstood and are the type of creatures that can warm your heart.

Having...

Deep Water, Shallow Plot, Great Story

Date of Review:  Jan 12, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend Water Horse as a feel good family movie with decent special effects and great casting.

I took my nine-year-old son to see Water Horse: Legend of the Deep today. He seemed to thoroughly enjoy it. Although the movie was very...

A boy and his (really big, really strange) dog

Date of Review:  May 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is a great fantasy movie for the whole family, but parents should be around when younger kids watch, as it is very powerful.
Review: Story: Angus MacMorrow (Alex Etel) is the lonely son of the head housekeeper of a Scottish manor, on the shores of Loch Ness. It is World War Two, and Angus's father went to serve in the Royal Navy. Angus is struggling to accept the possibility that...

Water Horse: Legend of the Deep..."Every word of the story is true, laddie..."

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Loch Ness Monster's name isn't "Nessie"...
Review: Last night my wife was having a party with her girlfriends. So I got kicked out of my own house with my 3 and 5 year old sons, and sent to the movies. We were originally going to see a Veggie Tales Pirate movie, but our timing was a bit off, so we...

So We Find out the Lock This Monster Is Actually a Cream Puff.

Date of Review:  Apr 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: This movie is good for all children and adults alike. You will not be disappointed.
Review: They have finally figured out a way to show where the Loch Ness monster came from. Unlike the killer whale in the free Willy, we knew where Willy came from. Through the years we have known the Loch Ness monster as a scary beast at a distance. But...

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is a great movie for families to watch together; parents won't be bored for the first three viewings.
Review: The Water Horse (2007) Directed by Jay Russell.

Two travelers stumble across a picture of the Loch Ness Monster in a pub. When the young lady comments on it, her boyfriend says it's a fake. An old man agrees, but offers to tell them a...

A Treat for the Whole Family

Date of Review:  Jan 8, 2008
The Bottom Line: A fine action-fantasy-rite-of-passage movie for all the family to enjoy together.

More Darkness Than Expected Lurks in The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep

Date of Review:  Apr 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: Wonderful movie, just a little darker than I expected.
Review: I love Scotland, fantastical creatures, Dick King-Smith and Walden Media, so when I learned about The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep, which combines all of these elements, it went straight to my list of must-see movies. Over Christmas vacation, a...

From book to movie and still a good story.

Date of Review:  Jun 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: For a movie that is rated PG you would be surprised how many adults love this story. It is worth watching again and again.
Review: The Water Horse Legend of the Deep is a very well written movie. The movie was first a book by Dick King-Smith that kept your attention and interest. Robert Nelson Jacobs is the writer or the movie script which also keeps you attention. The movie is...
