Several years have passed since Sawyer Nelson (Nathan Gamble) and the team at Clearwater Marine Hospital gave Winter the dolphin a prosthetic tail, thereby saving her life. Now however, a new crisis has arisen. Winter's elderly surrogate mother, Panama, has died, which leaves Winter without a pool mate. According to USDA regulations, dolphins cannot be housed alone; unless a new companion can be found quickly, Clearwater will lose Winter to another aquarium.

Roxana Hadadi Punch Drunk Critics You know how this ends, right? Of course you know how this ends. So the point of the film isn't the foregone conclusion, but the journey, which is... bland. Rated: 2.5/5 Jan 9, 2017 Full Review Mark Kermode Observer (UK) It doesn't have the focus or splash of the original, but Charles Martin Smith's sequel winningly wears its heart on its sleeve and Winter plays herself to a crowd-pleasing tee. Rated: 3/5 Oct 5, 2014 Full Review Mike McCahill Guardian Mild fun ensues, but even the returning players can't divert us from all its narrative water-treading ... Rated: 2/5 Oct 2, 2014 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse The two F's are front and center-family and friends-along with lessons in determination and fighting for what you believe in. Good stuff all round, if a little ham-fisted in its presentation. Rated: 3/5 Feb 1, 2021 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com It's a good old-fashioned family film with animals you will adore, people you will enjoy, and a story that will make you feel better. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Sep 6, 2020 Full Review Paula Fleri-Soler Times of Malta It is made up of equal parts sentimentality and some very warm-hearted animal moments without really offering anything new.

Georgan G A true story that makes me feel good about people. Why can't more people help animals?! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/16/24 Full Review Rodrigo C this is the memory of Winter the dolphin 2005-2021 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/23 Full Review robert p A worthy sequel to Dolphin's Tale though not as quite as good as the first movie, but in this case Hollywood made a right decision to make this film! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Já não é mais tão fofinho ver animais em cativeiros, dói, mas o filme é incrivelmente apaixonante, estou fascinada pelo pelicano Rufus, Cozi Zuehlsdorff uma fofurinha… Baseada na história da verdadeira Winter golfinho fêmea célebre por ter uma prótese de cauda, e a participação mais que especial Bethany Hamilton, que teve seu braço arrancado por um tubarão enquanto surfava e rendeu um emocionante filme, como este, lindo e sensível, sobre aceitação e inclusão... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the rare sequels that live up to the original. I have a feeling these movies will be much loved by my friends and family members. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Dolphin tale sucks don't get why anyone would want to watch it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
