Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Dolphin Tale 2 is a thoroughly run-of-the-mill family film that will never surprise any viewer over the age of 4. It continues the “inspired by a true” story of this dolphin with the prosthetic tail, but this time the problem is that her companion dies and dolphins can’t be kept in captivity alone. Of course the humans have their own crises to deal with as well, particularly young Sawyer (the protagonist of both films,) who has to decide if he can walk away from his home and work families in order to pursue further education. I found the movie ridiculously cliche, and it spoon-feeds every single plot point to you. It’s clear that the entire purpose was to make a film as wholesome as humanly possible so that the whole family can watch it. Even the young stars of the film are not allowed to kiss on camera, despite the fact that their romantic feelings are obviously implied throughout the film. It almost feels like one of those church-made movies, but without the heavy-handed Christian messaging. I was most surprised that they were able to get back the entire cast of the first film in order to keep the story going. Dolphin Tale 2 has the feel of a direct-to-video sequel that would just get the same kids and then recast the adults or explain away why the parents weren’t present. Yet they still had a fair number of scenes with Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, and Harry Connick Jr. In fact, one of the weird things was how they tried to shoehorn some of the tertiary characters from the first film into prominent roles in the sequel. For instance, Kyle (the older brother of our main character) suddenly works with the aquarium on some vital level, when he was a complete outsider originally. Despite all its blatant shortcomings, there is a strange warmth that I feel when watching a family film like Dolphin Tale 2. I am fully aware that it’s not a good movie, or a good story, and yet I still care about what will happen in a strange way. I think it makes me nostalgic for the kind of saccharine entertainment I would watch as a kid. I certainly wouldn’t call Dolphin Tale 2 a garbage film, because for its target audience it provides exactly what they are seeking.
