Dolphin Kick (2019)
10/10
You can't afford to make a wise investment in a movie like this!
8 November 2022
The main characters in the movie are siblings Skyler (Tyler Jade Nixon), and Luke (Axle McCoy).

A brief summary of the plot is about a young boy, who befriends a dolphin and finds the courage to get back in the water after the loss of his mother.

The possible theme for this story has a lot of messages about protecting the environment, humankind's responsibility for the planet's creatures, and believing in oneself. Whereas, family is shown dealing with grief. Promotes good communication and active participation.

The possible moral for this story is "Do you want to sit around with your toes in the water or dive in?" Moreover, the song, Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) by Hillsong UNITED comes to mind after seeing this movie. Especially, the particular lyrics in the chorus of that song that says "/Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders, / Let me walk upon the waters / wherever you would call me, / Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander / And my faith will be made stronger./"

This is a family adventure movie that's for the ages of 11 to 1 year old, but I think 8 to 10-year-olds would like this movie, yet I love this movie as an adult because of how God uses nature with one of His creations to help a boy recover from grief and restore him back to the waters.

In my opinion, the movie was engaging and on point, capturing my attention right from the beginning in seeing Luke's starting point. The soundtrack was inspiring. The acting was vibrant, natural, and good, and had an impressive performance that was believable. The dialogue and the writing gave the story a clever and thought-provoking appeal that made the actors sound intelligent. I loved this movie and feel like it's one of those movies that you'd want to see over and over again because it was lovely and complex. You've seen Christian movies but not like this that will make your kids want to venture on into the deep.

Overall, I would most defiantly recommend this movie because I've learned that dolphins are the most peaceful creatures in the sea so they know how to live peacefully amongst sharks; we can learn a thing or two from dolphins about how to live amongst those who are tough to love, and who could not afford to make such a wise investment in a movie like this.
